in limbo with Mom
Oct. 19th, 2022 03:47 pmRemember when Tacoma Girl was at my place a couple of weeks ago? There was one particular exchange that has stuck in my head. We were talking about my mom.
Tacoma Girl: Sometimes you want them to just die already.
Me: [Tacoma Girl]?
TG: Yeah?
Me: Get out of my head.
Mom's outlasted the color printer cartridges that I used exclusively to print out photos for her. I'm down to my last sheet of photo paper, padded envelope, and stamp. Ominous? It wasn't an omen last time.
I'm not completely sure whether my sisters want me to see Mom or not. On the one hand, a few months ago they said not to because, well, she's so far gone. On the other hand, they've spent the intervening months running relays to Florida; Good Sister used a phrase like "if you go down there". To be clear, I don't want to go.
