My brothers act just like my Mother, jumping around among multiple projects at the same time, but nothing ever seems to get finished.

Ah, I’ve seen this before. Your family members have never needed to learn to multi-task. They have you 😉

She sees no need to bother with it, as I am available to deal with it for her.

one time when my brother and i were teenagers, we were out in the garage, helping dad with some projects. so there we were, my brother and i, crouched down on the garage floor, holding together some piece of repaired furniture or something, until the glue set. one of the neighbors dropped by, to say ‘howdy’ and see what was going on, and offered to lend my dad some large clamps [the kind that are 3′ or 4′ long].

‘no, that’s ok,’ my dad said. ‘this is why people have kids.’

She is frustrated by her inability to do everything she used to do, so I’ve become a way for her to accomplish things. The problem is that she doesn’t left me finish one thing before she wants several other things done.

Your mom sounds like the people I work for. They have no idea what’s involved, don’t want to know, just want it done! Hope it goes well.
