Short and sweet. Like my panic over my brother leaving me to take over the managing of the house maintenance, running the household, buying the groceries and preparing all the meals, managing the utilities and somehow getting the whole-house music system working with a different computer: Ahhhhhh! At the same time preparing the taxes for my parents’ returns for the new preparer, installing a new printer in the computer network, decluttering cluttered areas from previous decluttering attempts (of which I am highly regularly criticizes as if I don’t see it), and figuring out the earthquake policies and which ones to continue going forward all the while taking care of 94 strong willed Mom who would prefer my Brother’s care for her which he completely does Not care for anyone but his desires and
The exuberance of the freedom of his tyranny and constant domestic abuse.
Panicked and excited. Scared and thrilled. Hopeful but realistic.
Reality : he’s a coward, a bully and cheap. Free lodging beats the unknown so he’s staying.
Disappointment and relief.
What a whirlwind of my craZy life. I hope yours is Much Better.
Blessings to you and all on this journey.
Warmly,
Anne
