The puke fairy has been at our house for the last 3 days, and I’m so far behind on *everything* it’s not funny. First Alannah was sick, then the boys…of COURSE I would be the last one to get it. I’m still pretty weak, not having eaten in two days, but feel better than I have since Monday.
An interesting development has come around here. Apparently, Mom wants a new doublewide with 4 bedrooms instead of this one with 3. Why does she want a new larger home? So that IF my brother decides to come home for a visit, she’ll have enough room for them. There will be a bedroom for Bro and his wife, a room for their two kids, and an exercise equipment room.
My brother hasn’t been home in more than 10 years.
However – if Mom gets a new doublewide, that means that I get to keep this one. Details haven’t been worked out since I’m still unemployed….and this may go absolutely nowhere.
I’m not quite sure how to feel about it. The house is nice enough as doublewides go. But when I first found out about this idea, I had to bite my tongue HARD to keep from telling Mom “it doesn’t matter, I won’t be here.” Dunno where that feeling came from, and I’m not chasing it too much right now….but it’s there.
Ugh!!! I hope you are feeling better soon.
