I am so sorry about this situation. It sounds untenable. Can we help at all - esp for those of us at a distance?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Ugg. Sister just texted:
Have you heard from [brother] today? Call me after you do. He will probably be calling you with news.
I ask if it's good news or bad. She responds:
well... he should probably tell you. All is ok, so don't worry.
WTF?
OK, given that "all is ok", that means his lymphoma hasn't returned, right? Given that he and his wife are 5 years older than me (close to 50), I doubt she's pregnant, but, it's a possibility.
Ugg! I'd rather not have known to know that something is coming.
Given they are both on east coast, I assume he should be calling soon, as it's 9pm there now.
Aims also sorry about the situation.
When I was young, my dad sold houses. We moved a lot because my dad pulled the family's fat out of the fire by doing that.
Ugh Aimee, that's a lot to process. Many hugs to all of you. Moving is hard even in the best of circumstances.
Yikes! I was writing mine while Aims posted. Sorry. Tons of ~ma to the Miracleborns!
Can you call him yourself, omnis?
I think you should go camping...it'll make a nice memory.
I honestly don't know. I want to turtle away. A friend who was trying to help us buy the house said to let him know when we do move so that he and his wife could help. I told him, "I think we're going to do this one alone." Right now, I don't want to go through the asking people to help us move. A-fucking-gain. Especially if it's to a temporary place until we find a permanent place and then have to move a-fucking-gain. I am in "retreat from everyone" mode. Meanwhile, my mother is offering sage advice such as, "Don't wait until October 1 to figure it out." Thanks, mom. Here I was thinking September 29 would be a good day to go looking at apartments.
Hell, I didn't even really want to come in here and talk about it because I've been so persona non grata for the past forever, it seems.
