I Apologize for My Absence
Added 2023-10-19 00:37:28 +0000 UTCUnfortunately, last month everything hit the preverbal fan. The nurse that was visiting us every day to help with my dad is no longer coming here due to changes in government funding. So now it's just me taking care of both of my parents. Dad's dementia is horrible now. He can't remember what you told him literally a minute ago. Mom's knee has given out so she can barely walk. She's getting by right now with the aid of a cane but it's still difficult for her. I've been running myself ragged trying to take care of them and I'm not doing a very good job, to be honest. It's just a LOT all at once. I'm still working towards finding some new semblance of normal so I can have some spare time again and get back to modding and such. Right now, I'm tired. Very tired. And I still need to run more errands tonight. *sigh* I'll try to get back here as soon as I can. Until then, I apologize for my absence.

Take care of yourself. You are a rock star for taking care of your parents. We will still be here when you're ready to return. :)
