Rub-a-dub-dub, Mom's Stuck in the Tub.

So we take the kids to the Dairy Queen after the cub scout meeting last night. We get there a little after 8pm. Matt and the kids are up at the counter ordering while I am reserving our table. Just then my cell phone rings. It's my mother. She says that she's been stuck in her bathtub since 3pm. She took her telephone into the bathroom with her while she was taking her shower just in case anyone called. Apparently someone did call. It was one of her friends. She explained to him that she had been stuck in the bathtub for 5 hours and he suggested that she either call her daughter or 911. She chose me. So Matt and I drive an hour to Wooster, free my mother, and then drive an hour back home. So...Mom's moving to Akron, and staying out of the bathtub in the meantime.

Why did she wait for someone to call her when she got stuck? I hope that the moving goes well for her.

Cute little title, by the way.

It sounded as though she really thought that she was eventually going to get out on her own. But the friend that called her convinced her that if she hadn't been able to do so in the last 5 hours then there was a good chance that that wasn't going to happen and that she should call someone before it got too late in the evening.

So where's your mother going to live in Akron? Are there apartments there you're looking into for her?

Don't know yet. I'm going to have to go pick up apartment applications.
