Aug. 9th, 2004 08:40 pmI've just had the most surreal conversation with mam. She was talking about buying her house with the right to buy scheme. It's what James and I did, if you're a council tenant you get a substantial discount if you apply to buy your council house, or at least you did, I think things may have changed. Anyway, she phoned to say my brother suggested that he club together with Kayleigh to buy her house. They'd split the mortgage costs and that way when something happened to mam they'd have a house. Now I'm puzzled by that. For one thing Chris has his own house, I can see it's an awesome investment scheme, I mean our house is valued way over what we paid for it, but it seems really, man, I don't even know what word I mean. Callous I suppose that he's thinking that mam will die. See the disease she has can be terminal, we all know that and accepted it, but saying things like this is like shoving it in our faces, that she will die and Kayleigh will have nowhere to go.
Mam was saying Kay wouldn't be able to go to Chris', which yeah I understand his house is tiny, and we wouldn't want her. Which isn't really true, having her here would be a huge thing with a lot of problems but I'd never turn her away. So they seem to think the best thing to do is buy the house between Kay and Chris so they have it in case mam dies, and that just seems wrong to me. It's like when you get that suspicion that something's going on that you don't know, even though I don't really think there is as mam tends to tell me most things. In detail. Over and over.
Then her mobile rang so she hung up on me. Oh well, no use worrying about it I guess.
I've written nothing today. Not one word. At least fictional words. I think my brain's on strike. However, I did get stuck into my mail backlog because I suck and have been gallivanting with my boys instead of doing what I'm supposed to lately. I'm going to do a few more then go looking for some Wade slash because someone *cough/Bettina/cough* has set me off wanting to read some.
I love Wade so much even though he's a child tyrant and has a strange flat face *lusts after his flat face*
I had something else to say and I can't remember now. I forgot when I saw the Busted pics in
english_muffin's journal *g* I can tell you I'm GIPing again because someone needs to take PSP away from me. And I wonder why I don't get things done. Take away my graphics programmes and google and I'd be the most productive person in the world.
