I'm so anxious tonight. It's partly that and it's also because of something I can't post about here but it's messed up family stuff. And then the possibility of moving. We tried seriously to move to where my sister lives about 3 yearsa ago and found the market impossible. So every so often we'd see a house but we haven't found what we need. One last week was about 95% but no way for an elderly person with mobility issues to get in or out. Which is a big concern since my mom will live there too and while she's in perfect health right now that could change. But we weren't that serious, partly because I don't really want to move. I feel secure here. But after a talk with my therapist recently I decided to support this and so we're more actively looking now. Wednesday a real estate agent is coming to tell us how much our houses here are worth. This means wer'e more serious and I'm still struggling with that. But I know it's the smart thing to do if we ever find a house.

This is also hard because it is making me accept that my mom, while a dynamite who runs circles around me, won't always be here and I'm so close to her that it will be horrible to lose her. I can't imagine my world without her right there. (We live across a driveway from one another).

It's too much all at once. In fact I'm almost crying. I haven't cried in years bc of my meds dulling things. I didn't cry but I sure got teary. too much at once....I feel out of control of my life. Even though I agreed to this now it seems real and scary. And I need my therapist for more than 2 hours to help with this. Maybe I'll have something to talk to the replacement about after all.
I'm sorry you are so anxious. Yes anxiety is awful.

My mom died in 2007. I was only 34. My dad died when I was 4. I'm the youngest of 8 but I've lost 3 siblings. My mom and I were exceptionally close. She was my best friend. She was holding my hand when she was going in the hospital. I didn't realize it at the time but the nurses didn't try methods that could have been done to save her. 2 of my sisters at the time talked to th6nurses and they said no miracles will be happening today. Please cherish the time you have with her. 🌷🌷🌷
