Geek bitch extraordinaire. I break stuff for a living!
Dad's clearly feeling better from "super flu". He has not stopped talking constantly, and I mean *constantly* to his hallucinations for FOUR fucking hours. I am losing my mind.
I miss the quiet of him being ill 😩

I miss this little monkey-bum so badly. George was such a special boy. I'm glad he found us, and learned what blankets and beds were. But I wish it had been when he was younger, so we could've helped him more 🖤

the city of Reno could bring in a lot of tourism if they made it legal to commit up to one murder in homage to Johnny Cash

Sometimes I'm doing something mundane, like the washing up. It's like a bullet to the chest as I remember - "my Mum's dead".
It still doesn't feel real. Everything is hitting so much harder since George, my "stray" cat died. The house is so empty 😢

'Jolene' just started playing on the radio. So now I'm sobbing uncontrollably because my Mum (passed away in June) almost named me after that song... Hormones are fun!

Oh damn, I didn't post about it here?
Mum died in June. She got pneumonia from being unable to swallow. It went exactly how they said it would.
Only I saw her in A&E Resus, which I'm glad of. It was horrific, she was setting off every single alarm. Nurses were whispering, & giving me sad smiles.

It's never good when you visit your Mum in the Nursing Home, and they ask if you get along with your family 😩
They're making sure to enforce the rule to only discuss Mum's care with me, because it seems they've been slagging me off in front of the staff. Lovely!

I really just need some form of joy in my life. Everything sucks and has done for so long, I am completely drained.
There's not much I can do about it, but I have gathered seeds. Planting mainly starts in March, but so far I've done carrots, sweetpeas, snapdragons and a chocolate cosmos 💐

After cleaning up Dad's shit yesterday, for 4 hours, before I'd even had breakfast. After looking after him, even though I detest the man.
Today, he's being an absolute shitlord to me. Completely vile. It's not "his illness", he's always been like it. Way before the dementia. He's just hateful 😣

Dad was violently ill in the night last night.
I spent 4hrs this morning cleaning a poo-nado in his bathroom.
I've cried so much, wondering WTF I ever did to get punished like this.
It feels like it's never going to end. Everything just keeps getting worse 😞

Mum went into the Nursing Home last Wednesday. I went there the day before to set up her room a little bit, and then again when she arrived to settle her in.
I haven't been back since because other people visited and then at the weekend I got flu.
I hadn't been ill since the end of 2018 🤧

Mum goes into the Nursing Home on Wednesday. Social Services are covering it at first, and then we'll pay it back, as OMG, Power of Attorney is not as straightforward as you think!
We spent thousands getting it, only to find some banks want waaaay more paperwork done as well! It's been weeks now.

I really miss my Mum tonight 😥 I feel so robbed of time with her. We always knew Dad would go first, we made plans of what we could do when he wouldn't stop us from living our lives...
...and now I'm stuck at home, looking after him while she's dying in hospital.
Life's so unfair.

I thought I didn't have anything positive to post, but actually I do!
I pretty much just left my wildlife garden over Winter, I just haven't had time. The birds are happy! So many birds in there, the teasels have goldfinches munching on them! Tonight I saw water beetles still swimming in the pond ☺

Blimey, has it really been a month since I last posted here??
Things got worse. A LOT worse 😥 Mum was home for a week, the hardest week ever. Then when I was going to get her up one morning, she'd had a stroke. Back to hospital! She had clot-busting drugs and... had a second stroke 😩

It was the first full day today of Mum being home. It was HARD. The morning went so well, it did not prepare me for the hell of afternoon!
Also, not me crying when one of the evening carers told me I was a real life angel and I'd got my wings for this 😭
I don't want to be a grown up.

I'm having a horrible time of it lately, and now I've caught up on all my podcasts and don't even have anything to listen to 🙁
Any recommendations? I listen to stuff like Loremen, Behind the Bastards, true crime stuff, gaming podcasts, etc.

I got a steam cleaner and it's way too fun. I'm sure the dopamine will wear off eventually and it'll sit in a cupboard. But right now- I am steaming ALL the things!
