Well I guess the war is starting a little. It seems one of my sister's
is obsessed with anything that might be antique and be worth money. My dad who has been gone for 27 years had antique for sure now. Cameras, and one of my sisters is into these very much. And wanted one. And had them all out looking at them. Another sister was there when she had them out. And told her to take the one she wanted. Which I would have also. And I guess she had heard the other sister was trying to find someone that could tell her what they are worth as antiques and so she had asked someone that the family knows. So it got back to that sister, and she took them all home the cameras. Because she thought she was trying to either give them away or sell them. Ugh, she knew better. Maybe now that particular sister will be willing to come help with things now after all. SHe is the one that doesn't want to make the time it seems. Oh well its just life as usual. I do know when we go to get Derrick's furniture they have all said its okay. So I know its okay. I brought home my mom's computer I wanted to look at it. So I sent a message to one sister today. I will take it back, But she and my families are the ones that gave it to mom for christmas. And with no internet there anymore it was hard to look at it. Anyway if she gets mad she just does. Period. I haven't felt like going back, but i will one day soon I hope. We are getting busy at work so its going to have to be in between that kind of stuff too. Donna |

Yep, this is the third or fourth thing this particular sister has
decided is antiques and might make money. She is not only in denial but I think if she can just get rid of it by selling it. Then that is good. Same one that wanted to just sell the furniture. She just doesn't seem to want to do any getting things between us. I'm not sure what the next thing is going to be. I'm beginning to think she is going to go completely down. We will see. Donna |

Well I guess she has now decided that all the extra clothes and the coats would go to the church. Which was perfectly okay. But she took the coat one of my sisters wanted. The sister that shares the check book with her.
And I think it was because this particular sister doesn't leave the checkbook so that if she needs to pay an bill it can be paid. THen complains she doesn't do anything to help. Oh well, that is their own drama. So then my other sis ask when I can come over. Wants me to coem the 11th and 12th, I know its probably not possible I have many meeting next week. Plus can't seem to shake this cold completely it comes back. So told her it would be the next weekend the 18th and 19th. Well that is fine, but she has plans the 18th but we can that evening and the 19th. Guess its okay for her to have plans. HEEHE, Then today when she sends us all a message, one of the other sisters is gone that weekend, so I suggest the following weekend, and they are both okay with it. But still nothing from the other. SO we will see. I've decided that I might be getting sick from my mom's house so I think I'll get a hotel room for the nights I'm there. But haven't gotten that far yet. Just thinking right now.

Also that particular weekend is appropriate. Its my mothers birthday
weekend. I'd really like to do something in her memory with my sisters. So I just put that out there to them. We will see what they say. Donna |

Yes, I even told them their husbands are invited. Its a little harder
since its a Sunday to get my husband to go. But that is okay. Their husbands all 3 were very active in the end in helping my mom, and being there for her. So its very fitting to me that we all celebrate her day together. I also think if we do this it will get the one sis to come. I'm pretty sure the other two will agree to come on their own. And I'll tell or ask my husband, and I'll probably suggest we stay in an hotel overnight that Sunday night. I'm just not sure if I might not have gotten sick at her house. And with no internet, or tv its really not as welcoming to relax to me. Donna |

It sounds like there's some good and some not-so-good things going on with your sisters. I'm glad that you don't live closer, so you are not in the thick of it all the time
It's wonderful that you are grateful to your sisters' husbands for being there for your mom. Not everybody is like that, Donna. It will be nice for you all to get together the weekend of your mother's birthday I'm sorry you are still battling that cold How long has it been now? I would stay in a hotel, too... just for the lack of TV and internet alone. |

Its not been 2 weeks yet so its still kind of new. I know its going to
take a while. So I'm just taking it day by day. I can be very thankful for my sister's husbands because I know how much my mom and sister's had to depend on them to help. Just for everyday things sometimes. We got word last night, after things calmed down my last sister, will try to ask for the weekend off that we are all coming together. This is a big thing for her. She never really wants to do things like that. She just wants to maybe be off. I honestly think it has always been her way to cope with things. So this is good. I think she will join us if she can for celebrating mom's birthday but not sure. Only Karla has commented so far that she thinks this is a good idea. Or would like this. Diana it will be the last minute I'm pretty sure, she is just that not sure at times what she wants to do. Its also going to be according to whether she has something she finds she wants to do. Which is okay. My one brother in law has done things like car maintenance, lawn care, fixing things in the house. And anything else my mom might ask for for almost 37 years and +. THe other two have as much as they could for 37+ years for one, and 10+ the other. SO its been nice to have them with us. My one sister's friend who died this last spring used to come stay with my mom when we needed an extra set of strong arms at night. Because her husband couldn't do the lifting because of his back at the time. So it was an family affair for sure. Just lots of good memories. Donna |
