I’m not going to go into things too much, but my mom is such a big part of my life-my constant worry about her is a daily issue . My middle brother is suppose to move in with her and now that he has a deadline (needs to move out of his apt which is going to get redone) he is pushing mom to get only two rooms cleaned out so he has some place to put his things. Now you all know mom is 79 and has health and eye issues. I feel for her in that respect. What bothers me is that she can’t seem to part with things. She says he has no right to tell her what to do in her own home. But if he was there, she’d be better off financially, probably have new floors and rugs and a updated kitchen among many other things-even maid service. He spent the summer and much money fixing up her yard-it has never looked nicer. My brother has a very vocal and often brash way of getting his point across, but I am glad that he is interested in taking over the family homestead. I talked to him over 2 hours yesterday. In fact I talked to 4 family members and we all want some kind of resolution-but the older folks, mom and uncle are clashing with the ‘younger’ folks. It’s not like mom’s house is picture perfect, she had vermin issues at one point and that was bad enough. She has all that stuff! I feel if most of it went away she wouldn’t miss it. So this has been on my mind.
I’m still doing my collage projects and getting together ideas for the book I hope to write. My friend said if I did larger canvases similar to the small art trading cards, I may be able to do a show in a Philly suburb gallery she is affiliated with! It would be nice to actually sell something I make. It’s really nice to have someone take an interest in something I do creatively.
Lots going on!
Who likes it when someone asks you what you want for your birthday? When I was 10 I knew, but at this age? I would still like to go to NYC, but maybe in early December.
Going for my mamm and ultrasound tomorrow. Please send me good vibes!
