Always Autumn

It's been a while.
I wanted to start a blog that only certain people could look at. There is one stuck on here that I can't get rid of. Looks like he's been there about three or four years. I can't figure out how to sweep him out.
Anyway. Since I last wrote here, after losing my brother, I lost my mother. I knew when she came here about five years ago it would be the last time we saw each other. It was. I'm still not certain what she died from but I suspect a big chunk of it was losing my brother. He used to see her every day and he was always working on something to make her life easier since she was in her mid eighties. Her health went downhill very fast. I did manage to get to her on the phone when she was in the hospital for something and got to tell her I loved her. She said it back in a very weak and far away voice. I miss her. I miss picking up the phone to talk about nothing. She died in her bed which was what she wanted.
Sadly, since by only good brother died before she did, he took with him the knowledge of where her will was. That started a huge mess with my other idiot brothers who got a will online and made up a bunch of things. Everyone was getting screwed except for him and my oldest brother. I'm convinced they just wanted to sell the house to get more money for pot.
I didn't get anything that belonged to my mother. I got a few things that already belonged to me that she had since I was a kid, but nothing of hers. I would love to have had her coffee cup, the one she used every single day of her life. The things she told me for years that she wanted me to have went to the daughter of my on of the creepy brothers.
It's almost over now. We will all get a little money from the house but not much. I just want it to be over so I never have to think about those people ever again. There is one good brother left but he doesn't like to talk on the phone and can't seem to figure out computers.
I still have to have the other half of my left kidney operated on but at this rate they will have to start over. It's been over a year and he said not to go more than three months. But I can't get anyone to help me. So thanks again NHS.
Most of my time is still spent alone. I can't even get in touch with my friend Jim in California. I really miss talking to him. On the rare occasions my husband is home he is either asleep or upstairs on his computer. At least he's not out drinking or screwing around. I know where he is all the time.
My 'best friend' from high school that I found on Facebook didn't turn out to be the die-hard friend she claimed to be. We talked a lot on Skype but that didn't last long. It's all she can do to be bothered to give me a thumbs up on a picture of something on Facebook. So I watch the cows and feed the three pheasants that come by. There is one who comes by twice a day. It's funny if he sees me in the window he will start running toward me. I wish I could see him outside. I'll bet he would come to me if I had food. I would love to pet him. I was thinking about the owls very early this morning and just as I thought it, I heard one outside. Amazing. I wish they were around more. I love that sound.
The farmer lost his dad a couple weeks ago. We all knew he wasn't going to last long. He was a very nice man and none of this would be here if it wasn't for him. I wouldn't have any cows to watch. I should write about that. I heard the farmer outside one morning calling to the cows like he does when he's going to move them. I immediately thought he was going to put them in another field which would be so sad. He was calling and calling. It sounded urgent. Then I saw him wearing a suit! I thought that was a funny thing to wear while calling the cows. Soon they started coming, running down the hill toward the road. I moved to the front window to see if they had closed the gate which is what they do when they move them on the road. Instead I saw a man with a top hat followed by a hearse. My heard sank. Behind the hearse were friends and family. Then it hit me what he had done. The farmer had taken the cows to the road so they could see him and he could see them one last time. Oh, I cried. I still do when I think about it. It was a nice touch. In a way it was a sort of closure for me because I wasn't there to attend the funerals of my brother and my mother. So I will remember that one in my mind. It was a beautiful day. They would have all loved it.
That's enough for now. This chair still hurts me. I won't stay away for so long next time.
