I make no money of the Plum world that is all up to J.E. I will play with the people of the plum world and I will put them back when I am done.
Laundry
Every day is the same thing. I get up and make coffee, then I use the bathroom before everyone else fights over it after that I start breakfast. When Frank comes down I start the first load of laundry. Oh how I hate that word hell I hate doing it but it fills my day and I know it has to be done. The people in my house don't seem to understand that it is a never ending chore that has to be done because it never is done. It's like dishes yes I have them all clean but then there are more to do because we use them. It's not like Frank and the grass he cuts it and a few weeks later it still looks like he just did it.
No laundry is ever house wife curse.
"Helen are you doing Laundry again? I swear woman you need a life." I smile a sad smile "It has to be done Frank. Oh I washed the pair of jeans you asked more and the socks you wanted are already in the clean basket for you to." See no sees it no sees its pile up because I make sure it doesn't. I want a life but I let the burg win and beat me down to be this shell of a woman. I want to run and run and never come back but I can't.
"Hello mom its Val and the girls." "Good Morning Val there is food on the table please help yourself." "Thanks mom oh by the way I dropped off the laundry I know you love do it. I'll be back later to pick it up." Wow even my oldest thinks this all I do.
I finally get the last load done and it time to start dinner but to tell you the truth I'm so tired of this day in and day out routine that I do. My mother is out having fun Val is grown and happy in this life more than I am. Frank is at the lodge playing cards and Stephanie is with Ranger now and I can no longer lie to myself and say she is un happy because she is very happy. It seems these men and Ranger are right for her.
"MOM WHERE ARE YOU." Oh dear that Steph I guess she need her laundry done to. 'I'm right here Stephanie you don't need to yell just put your laundry by the basement door I'll have it ready.
"Mom I'm not here for you to do my laundry. I don't need you to do that anymore I can do or Ellie dose it. No I came to ask if you wanted to bust out of here."
"What about dinner, I have to have it done so you father doesn't starve."
"You know I got a call today from Angie she worried about her Grandmother. She said you looked to sad and boxed it was the words she used. I know you have to be this perfect house wife so the Burg can't harp on you but mom really everyone else has a life outside this house everyone but you. Why?"
I thought about that I thought awhile I think because I felt tears down my cheeks.
"I hate it; I hate this you know. I wanted to be a nurse when I was younger but then I got pregnant with Val and I did the worst thing I let the burg take over. I just… I'm just so stuck Hone and I don't know how to get out. I feel like it is too late for me. I told Angie to save herself from the Burg you know I told MA to stay strong and be like you free."
I could see I shocked Step with this sudden talk but really I'm tired I really am.
I hear her get on the phone and the next thing I know two men walk in my house.
"Ok gents go to my mother's room in the closet on top is a suitcase get it please. Come on mom we are busting you of laundry duty." The next thing I know I have a full suitcase and being escorted to one the black SUV's that Ranger uses. Off we went to the airport.
"Hello Helen. My Babe said you need to fly. Frank is here already waiting for you."
The rest of the rip is a blur all I know was I was sent to fly and Frank was with me.
"No more Helen we are free now and Free we will stay. Are you ready for us to live a life of no more? No more anything. It's now and forever just like I promised."
I smiled at Frank seeing the Army Ranger I fell in love with years ago. He promised me Now and forever. I smiled and nodded I am ready. I am free.
