So mom and I have been talking over the past several days and I tentatively say it’s positive. She has now said that she would like to sell this house and move to a nicer area. She still doesn’t want to go back east yet but this is a good step in the right direction. She has finally accepted the reality that we don’t belong here. She’s realized that apparently we are an annoyance to my sister and we basically are alone in this hellhole. I’ve known that for a while now and it’s good to hear her say it. Of course I’m not too secure in all this as mom is famous for waffling on things. But we’ll see. Guess I’ll have to step-up my decluttering just in case. Now if the stupid housing market would pick back up we could sell this house and maybe get something for it.

Mom decided to go by herself today, Sister is preparing for yet ANOTHER fucking trip. Don’t know how long I’ll get exactly.

Sunday September 3. 2006 – 12:54pm – 2:54pm = 2 hours.

I know I’ve posted before about how I’m usually only allowed about an hour and a half to myself when my sister takes mom to bingo. Well now that little scrap is most likely going to be cut down to only an hour from now on. They tried the bingo at a new casino and mom liked it better. The only problem is that it starts earlier and therefore ENDS earlier…so that means they are home earlier. Because, God forbid my sister should maybe take mom out for dinner or something that wouldn’t cut into the only time I get for me. You’d think maybe sister dear would take mom to bingo on a day that I’m home so I could have maybe 3 or 4 hours to get myself together. But no…that would be an inconvenience to her and might benefit me and we can’t have that now, can we?
