It was hard going through and getting rid of some of my mum's stuff when she died, but it was for the best. My brother and I went through and picked out what we wanted to keep, and then we let the word out in the family about other stuff, then we gave the rest to charity and finally got in a mini-skip and dumped the rest.

It was for the best, although hard to begin with.

I say pay someone to do the painting. Give yourself a break. You're not superwoman, and I doubt anyone expects you to be. Besides, your mum left you some cash, so why not use it?
