Next week the annual big craft fair is held. I was really looking forward to it and have saved up for months to be able to go wild. Yesterday I bought my ticket. But now I can't go. Last night my mother developed a respiratory infection, again. Which usually takes her a couple of weeks to get over it. Normally she's on stand-by to help in the store if it gets busy, but that isn't an option next week. I could have gone on Sunday, but my father has decided that he wants to see how busy it is on Sunday with the holidays approaching, but since he's going to help at my sister's apartment, it's me running the store. And besides, until my mother's better I'm responsible for cleaning, cooking and laundry and coincidentally my mother always seems to have planned big cleaning things when she gets the infection, this Sunday I'll be cleaning the kitchen cabinets and fridge, next weekend I'll probably have to defrost and clean the freezer.
At least my mother called the doctor this morning and got the right medicine. Often she waits contacting her until the infection has turned into a pneumonia.
