NoMo and Dusty

Its been a while since I've had anything to write about NoMo, and there isn't a whole lot to tell now either, but there has been a little activity recently. Since my last report NoMo has been very quiet and depressed. NoKe says that she just sits upstairs in her house and doesn't do anything. She used to just sit downstairs and watch TV, never going upstairs, but now she never leaves the upstairs. NoKe has offered to set up a TV upstairs but NoMo doesn't want her to go to any trouble, which is funny since NoKe is always having to make special trips to the accountant and the store and everything else for her. Now it seems that NoMo wants to go back to Generations voluntarally. She recently got a letter from a lawyer that said she would be held in contempt of court in Pine Bluff if she didn't respond in so many days. It has to do with her husbands nursing home care bill and how she hasn't paid it, its for around $10,000. And now, the IRS has zeroed out her bank account again. NoMo is having a little trouble coping with these things and wants a "vacation" to the mental health facility so she can recoup. NoKe has called Generations for her and they put NoMo on a waiting list. Tuesday a space opened up, so NoKe took her down there and checked her in, and is now in charge of Dusty while NoMo is away. This pleases NoKe more than anything, now that she doesn't have to compete with NoMo for Dusty's affection. We don't know how long NoMo will be in the booby hatch this time since it was voluntary, and as NoKe has said, "the problems will still be there when she gets out!" Maybe though, with counseling and medication, NoMo will be able to deal with being alone all the time and be able to stop hiding from her financial problems.
