“At Glory’s house, she went inside to check on the progress of the painter. That was the division of labor: Ginger oversaw and Mimi paid. The kitchen, walls a clean creamy white, smelled of paint, but the painter was gone. No more work would be done in Glory’s house today. She caught herself. This was not Glory’s house anymore. That head-banging discovery came the day after Glory’s move into the Meadows, when Ginger, attending to the mountain of her mother’s past-due bills, came upon a statement for a reverse mortgage that neither sister knew anything about. She’d immediately called Mimi and shared the news that without consulting them, Glory had taken out a reverse mortgage, ten years ago, with the lump-sum option.”
