Life Update. · 2:15am Aug 6th, 2019
So, some things have changed recently.
The biggest thing, obviously, is that my mom died about a month ago. It's still weird, typing that out loud. But in that month, I've taken time for myself to grieve, and remember the time that I got to have with her. It wasn't nearly enough, especially towards the end of her life. Her mental illness made her think she had irreparably fucked up her relationship with my siblings and I. So I didn't see her as often as I would like. I'll always be sad about that. But, like I said, I'm grateful for the time I spent with her.
The funeral is this Saturday, the 10th. This week. Damn, time flies.
In other, less depressing news, there's the fact that I'm no longer the author of Remnants. Soren Mercer, my friend, is. I made an outline for him and we're both discussing new ideas for the final arcs, so I'm excited to see where he takes the story. It's kinda poetic, the fact that I started this story as an outlet for my depression after my stepfather's death, and had to step away from it after my mother's death. I'll always be proud of the story, but man, was it emotionally taxing to write.
I'm in a bit of a better place, right now. My entire family is still grieving, obviously. Awhile back, my dad finally broke things off with my stepmom, who I don't like. That brought with it an entirely different set of stressful moments, but overall things have been better with him.
At the moment, I'd like to link my Ko-Fi one last time. I just went to the hospital because my lips are swollen to hell, looks like I've got an infection. Any help with medical bills would be appreciated.
But yeah. I don't really know what the point of this blog post was. I guess I just wanted to put some thoughts to paper. Or keyboard, in this case.
