Trying to get back, and making a decision...

I guess start with a decision. In fact, it's probably not much of a decision when you think of it.

Currently, I'm near Kansas City with living with my mother, which is where I'm recovering from a series of chemo treatments in hopes to overcome a brain tumor.

The dilemma, oddly enough, surrounds Thanksgiving. My older brother will be is hosting in the Chicago area, as been the plan for months.

However, my mother doesn't to go. She says the right things, but she's been setting the ground work to ditch it for a while -- first money, then the prospect of rough weather. Now, she won't travel on Thursday with my younger brother. The story is that relations between her and my older brother has become pretty rough.

Normally, I'll pay for her flight and the charades. But at the time, I could use the time way from her, and also Raytown. We've been together since mid-August -- same commentary, and dealing with some one who has not dealt with an adult ever. (My parents broke up early.) In fact, if I mentioned a break, she's never get it.

At the same time, I feel that I'm dropping the ball. Not helping, or at least explaining my feelings. Maybe I pay another bill in return? My way of saying the right things? Who knows.

Sorry for such a rough return to the VOX world. In fact, I really didn't provide much of a decision. Maybe there isn't one?
