I was told that I should wait one year, then decide if I still wanted to sell the house. At your Grama's age though, that time requirement may not apply.
(A very common reaction after a passing is the desire to sell the house - it holds so many memories, it can feel overwhelming to those left behind).
Thanks Rebecca. We're glad he isn't suffering anymore.
More bad news..the goat had babies. They both died. I found them cold this morning. I dunno what happened. They looked fine, but she must have just had them and left them. I wasn't even sure she was pregnant, but thought she might be. She had to have had them in the last 3 days because I went out to the goat shed Monday or Tuesday check for eggs since the chickens have been laying in there and I would have seen them. They could have been stillborn, but they looked healthy and were fully formed. *sigh* Poor babies They were so pretty, one looked just like her and the other was a salt and pepper gray with little black feets and face...so precious. I guess it wasn't meant to be though. :/ When it rains it pours, but hopefully it's done for a while. This is getting depressing.
Yep that's 3...hopefully that is all. I have had a pretty good day regardless. I refuse to stay in a funk I went and did some shopping and started some more tomatoes and things in the greenhouse. I still have a lot more to start. Bro. Jim wants 100 tomatoes and who knows how many bell and banana and jalapeno peppers. I got 64 tomatoes going for him and had to go pick up some more little pots, so I still have a LOT to do out there. It's storming right now though...or trying to or something. It's threatening anyway. I hope we don't get much if any. I'd be in the greenhouse now if not for the thunder and lightening...does not seem like a good idea with the metal framing and my recent track record of having Murphy hanging over my shoulder So I am stuck inside for now. Anyway, mom came by and got her cabbage plants and some eggs and went to the store with me, her and the old geezer. We had a pretty good time. I always enjoy time with my mom no matter what we're doing.
Unfortunately I had to call my sister and tell her about Joe.....ugh I hate talking to her. She hasn't even been around in the last 15 years, but wanted to be all overlydramatic and weepy, and say how they were "so close" and blah blah blah. It just got on my nerves because I know she hasn't invested a thing into the relationship for at least a dozen years and now she wants attention because she is so "hurt" by his passing Maybe I'm just mean, but sometimes I wish I could slap her face off. Nevermind the fact I KNOW she called children's services. She wouldn't even answer her phone for half the day, then decided to call me crying before she even knew what was going on Can I be sick now?
Ya'll pray for my attitude please, because I am just gonna lose my everlovin mind if I have to deal with her in all this too... I'm already thinking maybe I shouldn't go because I want to hurt her right now. I am really NOT a violent person...but she brings out the absolute worst in me It's confusing..I love her, or at least who she used to be, from a safe(for her) distance but I can not stand the sight of her either. *sigh* I feel like such a bad person for feeling that way toward her! I just hope she doesn't make it to the funeral.. If she does, I hope my cousins have sense enough to keep her FAAAAAAAAAAAR away from me.
