(no subject)
I am so busy with this class, geez. I have quite the story to tell about my weekend and my crazy boy. I have been practicing self-discipline with respect to blogging. Other days I spend hours and hours writing, and then I fall behind in everything else. Hopefully I can get more of this stuff written down. My sweetie is starting to worry about me writing so much detail about him. I certainly understand. I still want to document this momentous time in my life.
I have a window out at my house. It's the window on a door. Dan came over and removed the frame from the window and figured out the mechanism. I am so glad I didn't hire some idiot who pried out the wrong side and broke the removal mechanism. He's a smartie. :) But now I have to wait for the glass to arrive, so it is covered with a garbage bag and the blind. I taped cereal boxes over it but the wind blew them down. Of course I finally get this project moving along right before a bunch of wind storms. I closed off the kitchen so the heat won't go crazy, but I bet I have spent a bundle on heating in the last two days with no window there. humph.
Today is sunny and windy and beautiful and I am looking forward to seeing my man tonight. Things continue to get more interesting and wonderful. Even the problems and foibles, for the most part, are things that bring us closer. I guess there are still a few disclosures to make, so we'll see. The main one I have held back is the issue of caring for my sister (the retarded one) when my mom is gone. That will most likely fall to me. I have not told him yet. I may be able to wiggle out of it or otherwise accommodate her without being too constrained. It depends on how mom sets things up before she dies. I assumed S would come live with me, forever after, but unless they come up here relatively soon, it may no happen that way.
anyway, I now recall why I wanted to log on. My mom was 4 years behind in her income tax, and one of those years she received money for caring for my grandmother, but no witholding was taken. Recently mom got caught up on her taxes. It was hell, I am sure. Very stressful. She ended up going to the hospital with pain. The doctor told her she had had a heart attack and wanted her to go to the ER. Mom signed a waiver to avoid going to the ER and left against doctors' advice. I really worry about her, all alone down there, with nothing but dependents. I hope she takes better care of herself.
