Only More So

by Dixie Burns

Marauding billy goats, dogs, chickens, teenage boys, crossdressers, and friends that drink Vodka all day long might be a lot of troubles, but they beat lonely every time. Leigh Blackburn finally has the life she’s dreamed of and fought for. Happily divorced and living on a shabby chic farm with her sixteen-year-old son, she owns an upscale consignment store and has been building a new life free of tension. Free that is until her mother gets herself thrown out of her assisted living facility and moves in with Leigh. Leigh and her mother, Abba Gee, have never had a relationship that any Mother’s Day card might describe. Leigh loves Abba Gee as long as she is not in the same room with her. For her part, Abba Gee has never apologized for a single thing. She’s funny, manipulative, demanding, and abusive. And, a great deal of fun unless you have to live with her! Dementia is knocking on Abba Gee’s door as this mother-daughter duo struggles to find redemption before time runs out.
