It seems like your mom just wants to give you the chance to go through the things in the basement before she tosses them. Do you think you are reading more into this than necessary? You guys may or may not get along when you go there. It sounds like you already know that. So why not just go and do the thing you're going there to do and not worry about the rest? Certainly if your anxiety about the situation is up it probably won't go the way you hope. I don't know what the whole history is but my mother's relationship with me has been really messed up. We are just starting to relate and get along now. There are still many things about her that bother me, but I'm learning to accept that she is who she is and I give her credit for trying to work things out.
