I took a few days off from LJ while my dad had surgery on his other hip. I took a few days off of work to spend time with mom while dad was having surgery, and then I spent the first night that my dad was home with them

I hope that your dad's hip surgery went well.

Some minor complications, but nothing terrible. He'll be back to his old self in no time.

Thank you!

The spotted lanternflies have made it as far south as Virginia, but I don't know where. They might not have made it to your exact area yet, but they're coming.

You're a good person for being there for your parents. That's a much more important priority than Livegerbil.

Thank you

whaaaa about the car? Weird. But ok.

I just read an article about spotted lanternflies! Good job smooshing them!

How's your dad doing?

I seriously have no idea what she's thinking with her car comment. I guess I should be driving a big and manly SUV or something.

A few weeks ago I saw they found a spotted lanternfly in Nebraska. So you might start seeing them where you are sooner or later.

Dad has been doing a little better every day since the surgery. I was just down there today. He still needs a walker, but he was able to move around much more comfortably than when I was last there on Saturday.
