Which is why I think we could do all our heirs a favor by cleaning up the bric a brac and shit before we die.

My parents kept scrupulous photo albums but none of my siblings or I want all of them. There's too many. Do your heirs a favor and get rid of most of it. JMO.

It's not that my mom has a bunch of junk. It's just a house full of stuff - you know kitchen stuff, decorations, pictures. Some stuff I will take to GA for the new house. Other stuff I don't need or want but are good so I'm going to have an estate sale. She did hoard a lot of stuff though. I won't need to buy body wash for months. Or Pledge. Lol. She has a ton of cleaning products.

She has some old coins from luge 1862 abs 1889 that I have no idea what they are worth. And old LP's from Elvis and Dean Martin and others I also don't know what to do with.

They are also good for crossdressers buying pantyhose, lipstick, fake nails, and supermarket panties.

I should be asleep by now (for me ). I have insomnia for some reason tonight. Boo-hoo.

When you say estate sale are you talking about an auction? The men that run those will give you a good idea about the worth of the coins & the LP's too.

I think Nelson Mandela is dying.

They interviewed some kind of representative from the hospital he is in on the morning news here. I recall him using the word 'grim'.

None of us get out of life alive.

plus he's had a good innings he's in his nineties right?

95 on July 17 iirc

then he's had a longer life than any of us will probably ever know.

I think he probably deserves a welll earned rest.

More like a garage sale. Except for the coins abs LP's.

I wish I could buy everything I see on the Television Shopping Network. I love their stuff.

I'm not sure I can do this. My mom is living with me and she's in a wheel chair now after breaking her hip. Between her, the baby and the dog having diarrhea out in the garage, I've been cleaning up shit all fucking day.

I'm sorry Sally. That doesn't sound like a good time. Have a drink.

I can handle baby poop and dog poop, old people poop not so much. Shit is shit, so I don't know why it makes a difference to me, but it does.

On the news this morning that Mandela is on life support, unable to breathe on his own. I guess it's now down to which day they decide to turn the machine off.

I don't handle poop that well. Or vomit. I did on changing my boys diapers but hate changing other kids diapers. I'm going to have trouble doing it for Mike. Hopefully he will only poop when the aid is there.

One of the meds my mom was on gave her bad diarrhea. She messed up the downstairs toilet and didn't clean it. That was totally unlike her. I made my sister do it. It's the least she can do since I'm doing everything else.

Does your mom like Greek yogurt? That's what my mom eats to stop the diarrhea. Has me and my brother buy like 2 large containers of it at a time.

Good for you. Our dad cleans up my mom's poop and me and my brother do almost everything else.

That's fucking childish. You'd think that "who did what" could wait for a few weeks. You "made" your sister do it??

WTF? I can't imagine watching my parent die and arguing about chores. Jesus...[/b]
