Mom called today & invited me down for lunch which I immediately accepted. We had chicken carbonara, green beans and rolls, all good stuff. My brother was there and after lunch while Mom & I walked around her back yard looking at plants & playing w/ her dog, Gracie he laid on the couch & watched TV.
I pray my brother who is older than me gets his crap together. He sold his trailer and moved out of that hood about the same time as I bought my house and moved. The only difference is I bought close to Mom a house ready to live in. He bought an uninhabitable dump closer to our Dad's house. Now at age 58 soon to be 59 he more less divides his time living w/ our parents. I'm sorry kids, but I know my brother all too well to offer to let him stay here w/ me.
Anyway, Mom is planning to have all the window box seats pulled out of her sun room to make a bit more space back there. I've already told her I want all the wood from that removal project. Meanwhile today we pretty much cleared all the unwanted by her stuff out of one of the boxes. As my kitchen & dining room have tile floors I only drop glass & stoneware once. I've always loved the old time metal plates & cups with the blue w/ white fleck porcelain or ceramic coating. Eight plates and four cups came home with me today.
