Granny's gone and done it again

The Young Monk:

A young monk arrives at the monastery. He is assigned to helping the other monks in copying the old canons and laws by hand.

He notices, however, that all of the monks are copying from copies, not from the original manuscript. So, the new monk goes to the head abbot to question this, pointing out that if someone made even a small error in the first copy, it would never be picked up! In fact, that error would be continued in all of the subsequent copies.

The head monk, says. "We have been copying from the copies for centuries, but you make a good point, my son."
He goes down into the dark caves underneath the monastery where the original manuscripts are held as archives in a locked vault that hasn't been opened for hundreds of years. Hours go by and nobody sees the old abbot.
So, the young monk gets worried and goes down to look for him. He sees him banging his head against the wall and wailing. "We missed the 'R' ! We missed the 'R'."
His forehead is all bloody and bruised and he is crying uncontrollably.
The young monk asks the old abbot. "What's wrong, father?"
Witha choking voice, the old abbot replies. "The word was... CELEBRATE!”
 
Tomorrow is the day. We should find out if they will operate . Or when they will I guess I should say. I am about to pull what little hair I have left out.
Tom has been in bed since 6 that I know of. I have been busy all day and still not done. Robert woke to back/ leg pain. Welcome to my world Robert. I dont lay in the bed and yell at others or refuse to talk to a very old friend who is special needs and as sweet as can be.
I have cooked, done dishes and laundry, took care of Tom and all the animals, handled upteen phone calls . All while my back and hip is hurting. I got Roberts chore of garbage as well . Its supposed to go to the street today. Its not going to make it.
I would love a nap but I need a shower. Cold in there.
Worse thing about driving is going somewhere you have never been. 2nd worse is driving in the rain. I get to combine them tomorrow
Do I leave Robert here if he is unable to walk? I cant get ahold of his new worker or her boss.
