so, i haven't been in her house for years

and she had cleaned it out a bunch before bob came home

because she expected social workers

or health care workers might be through

and she didn't want to get pegged as non compos mentis (sp?)

and she keeps talking about how she's "getting rid of stuff"

but it was pretty full

and her "no furniture"

3 beds

5 chest of drawers

a zero gravity recliner

an arm chair with ottoman

2 drop leaf tables

a dining table

2 desks

an iron baby crib/bed/thingy (recently acquired)

a high chair (not from me)

a strangely out of place thin table (maybe entry or sofa table)

3 dining/side chairs

a fancy office chair

like 6 filing cabinets

a weird modular connected wrap around the room bookcase

and so so so many bookcases

white laminate, tall and short

folding, wood and metal

metal restaurant type shelving, white and silver, rolling and stationary

wood with glass blocks


she has no working lights

she had them all switched to florescent years ago

they have burned out, she has no new bulbs

how do you get around when the sun is not out

i use my phone as a flashlight


i don't want to talk about the kitchen


but she did ask me

in all seriousness

if i have dishes i want to donate

do i have to wash them


i sort of wish i had never been born


i have to go to sleep

i am super exhausted

goodnight sweetheart

i love you very much
