Where I've been (less then happy personal update) · 10:47pm Mar 13th, 2017
Well, it's been awhile, and for that I must apologize folks. It seems to be a theme for me these last few chapters. But it's been a rough couple of months all coming to a head this very crappy month. I'm not going to tag this for any story as I'm sure not everyone wants to hear it. Lets get to it shall we?
First off, I switched positions in my store, I no longer work in electronics dealing with people's cell phones and computer issues. A spot opened up in what the company calls Cap Team One, which use to be called ICS years ago. Basically, I work in the back of the store picking out stuff to fill empty holes on the sales floor. The core reason I choice this was because it was a set schedule, which is something I've never had before. Before I'd work morning evening and everything in between throughout the week which was hell for any sort of social life. The times however took some getting use to, 4am to 1pm through the week and 6am to 3pm on the weekends with Wednesdays and Thursdays off.
I also became quite politically active, however that's about all I'll say on that. Also attempted to find myself my own space since my father retired and could look after my sister and mother more fully.
Of course with the holidays I rarely have time to write so that was a given.
And then, this month, when my mother suddenly just began changing. No warning, no signs, just one day she was perfectly fine and the next shes afraid of losing her memory and mind. I urged her to go see the doctor to calm her fears and we all attempted to calm her down, as she's been a worrier all her life. It runs in her side of the family it seems, and we assumed it was just that and her turning 70 along with losing one of her sisters. Lord knows that would scare anyone. However it wasn't just that, at least as far as I can tell. And now she's making less and less sense as the days go by, with no end in sight. The doctors have thus far not found anything although I assume it's altimeters from what friends and coworkers have told me. I can not convince my father or older sister to seek any other doctors. Yeah, it could get better, but well I just don't see how.
So, here I am.
Not a very good start to this year...
As for my story, well... yeah. What can I really say at this point? Surprisingly I'm attempting to get back to writing. I can not do anything else, and thought it might make me sound like a coward, I can't just sit around and watch her degrade.
I'm looking for that house again and may have found it... so yay me. Also dead set on getting to Bronycon again this August.
That's about it for an update on myself. Hope your years going better then mine.
