CR’s concert went great! He was nervous and crying before hand but I told him if he messes up just keep pretending to play until he finds his place again and no one will even notice! Then he looked at my necklace (which I was t going to show him because of the curse word) but since he saw it lol I said this is what you have to do, no matter what you keep going. I think he found it comforting. Anyway he played great and was so proud of himself at the end!

My brother didn’t make it not surprised. He hasn’t responded to my request about dinner or even just FaceTime. So if I don’t hear from him tomorrow I will just text him our plan and tell him I need his help (but I’m still not expecting it). If he STILL doesn’t respond, I’ll just go ahead and do it myself. Oh well. I think he’s avoiding going over there because of the emotional pain it will cause but I can’t help that and I’m not responsible for him anyway. I will tell him in no uncertain terms that it’s ****** of him to put this all on me but if that’s what he’s going to do tell me now so I can plan accordingly. It will mean my mom will not be moving any time soon, I can’t clean out the whole house in a matter of days.

We’ll do the garage and look into getting her in to the nearby 55+ community. Then slowly get her room in order so we can move her furniture to the new place. Pick out the pieces that can be saved and discard the rest. But move slowly so she doesn’t balk too much.

Again, if I can’t depend on him to be involved he needs to just admit it and tell me so I don’t keep trying. I’d rather him tell me now than plan for him to be there and him lose his nerve and not show up.

Edit: on a lighter note RS took off today and took me to the Harry Potter exhibit at the museum in Philadelphia! It was so great, it had pieces from the movie sets and had everything set up to seem as though you were moving in the different rooms of hogwarts! I got to explore the common rooms of the houses, the great hall, two classrooms, and Hagrid’s hut, plus learn about the costume design and wand design choices for the characters. Soooo awesome!
