Had a dream about Nana and Mom this morning. I miss them both. I miss the chats, the cooking, everything. There are still times I want to dial the phone and hear their voices. But I know they are with me always.
I have a few guardian angels up there now. Maggie, Mom, Nana, Gramma. They are all watching over me.
Do you believe in angels?

Thank you to Dani and her son for helping to pack my grandmother’s china for the move. Moving date 12/12/19. Excitedly nervous. Have a lot to do still. UGH I am NEVER moving again after this. I have donated two pickup trucks worth of stuff and am slowly filling the dumpster. Please remind me not to accumulate so much crap from now on! It’s just stuff someone has to toss later.

My daughter suffers from PTSD, social anxiety and generalized depression. We are in search of a service dog to mitigate her symptoms. We found a trained service dog but it is costly. Please consider a donation no matter how small.

This thinking about something to write everyday can get tedious.

Anyhoo… J brought some stuff over to Mom’s house. I think I’m going to keep calling it that for a while. Mom’s house. She was the only owner, so I still think of it as hers even though I own 1/3 of it. Someday I will call it my own.

Getting quotes from movers, getting my house power-washed, cleaning, packing, etc. Lots of work to do and I am feeling a bit overwhelmed. So, if anyone has any words of wisdom, please pass it along!

My brothers and SILs have done so much work with cleaning up Mom’s house I feel guilty asking them to help me.

Been a few days since I have posted. My mind has been on the move. Pun intended. About midnight I awoke and decided I had to do something. I took a duffel bag and filled it with summer clothes. I put it by the door, ready to take to my next living space.
This morning Abby was sitting next to the bag and looking at me. She thinks I’m going on vacation. Little does she know; she’s moving with us. LOL.

Nervous and happy. Story of my life, right? I’m always worried the decisions I make will be wrong. I am looking into buying Mom’s house from my brothers. Time to negotiate then go to the attorney and draft the agreement. UGH. So much to do. It’s time for my magic wand if I had one. I could just POOF and it would all be done.

And what’s up with medical bills? J goes to the same place, has been going there for years, and now I have 3 accounts with them. When she turned old enough, they stopped billing me and started billing her but now there are two accounts under her name. SMH.

So, does anyone need any used furniture, VCRs, Blue Ray players… If there’s anything you need used, message me. I might have it and be willing to give it away, possibly free, just to declutter my house.

So, after therapy today, I’m visiting my possible future home, then going to an open house down the street to see what the house that’s just like mine looks like on the inside. Want to know what it looks like so I can price mine appropriately.
