Bullet points
These are not in order of importance. My mind is all over the place today.
1) Playing Choose Your Own Apocalypse is wearing me out. I know I am not alone in this.
2) Went back to school to get (finish) a degree in nutrition. I like school. Plus, I like having something to do with every moment of time. But it doesn't help with the worn-out part.
3) mac_arthur_park has died. I will miss her dark sense of humor, her deep goodness, and even her air of benevolent tragedy. I will never smell patchouli and not think of Al. There will be a collection for her surviving family. I will post about it when I hear details.
4) Mom has been very ill for the last 10 days. I am wiped out from it, and angry with her for resisting medical care, and simultaneously respectful of her needing things to be on her terms. But yeah, really tired of the physical work of caring for someone who hates being taken care of.
5) My kid hasn't had a hug in 6 months and I am sad for her but not willing to hug someone who is housemates with an ICU nurse while I'm living with elderly relatives. This entry was originally posted on Dreamwidth (DW). I welcome comments here or at the original post, where there are currently
