Buying this house and having my father move in was easily the biggest mistake I’ve ever made.

Went to the movies alone twice this week. Today I was the only person in the theater. It was strange, but also kind of awesome.

So it’s been just over a month since I blocked the ex I remained friends with. Now the ex before him unblocked me on Facebook and shows as someone I might know. Fuck that. I blocked his ass.

Today marks one month of no contact. It feels like it’s been so much longer than that.

Heather told me today that Dad told her that he’s prayed to be with Mom a couple times so he’s basically prayed to die.
That’s a lot.
That’s a lot.

Not that this is new information to me, but I had a moment this morning where it dawned on me that it’s been two years of being Dad’s primary caregiver. Holy shit.

These Saturdays where I haven’t had plans have been the hardest days. I know I need to get through them though. It just hasn’t been easy.

Anti-fascism is priority, thus it's necessary to acknowledge the status quo ante is a big failure, and not go the same path again.

Sometimes in the quieter moments when I’m alone, I wonder if I’ve been wrong about it all and if I’m making a mistake.

Each day should be easier than the last, right? Well, the email from his coworker/friend ruined the sense of security I had been lulled into. I thought maybe he was taking the silence as the message it is, but he clearly played a part in the email beyond giving out my email address.

Sure it’s been only two weeks since I went no contact and blocked his number, but we haven’t see each other in over a month. This weekend, for the first time, I miss him a little. No regrets about my decision though. There should never have been a friendship after we broke up in 2021.

Since going no contact, this is my first Saturday where I haven’t had plans. Typically I would have spent Saturday afternoon and evening with him. It still feels weird to not do that.

I love putting crap at the curb for trash pickup, but people come take stuff instead. Reuse that shit! ♻️
