Well its been a bit of a wild week
Aug. 18th, 2021 12:38 pmWhen last I wrote I was getting ready for a big weekend of crafts and helping pack up Linnet. That did happen but when I got done with working Thursday I fired up the xbox for some Stardew Valley fun and called my Aunt Judy. My mom had texted that my uncle who has been in home hospice for a few weeks only had a few days left. So I called to be supportive to my Aunt and to chat with her. Well, Uncle Gene was doing poorly. His kidneys had stopped and well, as we were talking he passed away. I was her comfort and she was not alone during this hard time but damn did I feel bad. I've never been with someone when they've died...it was very surreal. I had planned on going to the gym and I hung up with her and called my mom. My mom took the news very badly and basically hung up on me. I finished up some more Stardew (keeps hands busy) and then picked up Benton.
Got home, drank dinner and then the girls came over to help me work on a seekrit squirrel project. I will write on that in a locked post. There was margaritas and fabric and mixing and matching trim and basically mood boarding the entire project and it was good and what I needed.
My mom called later to apologize but this was her third blow this week. Earlier in the week my step sister found our she had stage 3 ovarian cancer. Now, my step sister is very smart but not bright. And her eldest sister had had a ovarian tumor removed after a very short time of issues with her girl bits. Well she had not done that and went years with issues and never brought it up to her doctor. Like seriously? Well, she's scheduled for surgery which happened today and she was full of tumors. They closed her back up and are starting aggressive chemo immediately. So that is going on. I don't care...I feel bad but some people bring things upon themselves which yeah not very nice but I'm lawful evil but if you have been bleeding for 3 years straight and not talked to your doctor or the doc didn't believe you? yeah its on you...honestly.
Anywoo, Friday we got the boy to school and then waited for the call to help with Linnet moving out of her dad's place. OMG, he has done nothing to that house but hang religious icons everywhere and add more clutter and actual trash places. He's set up his WFH office on the kitchen table even though he has an office he could use...the boy is still sleeping on his toddler bed...like what the fuck?! the kid is 15. So we handled that with very little drama other than Mark not being able to lift anything and Mel and I just letting him do his thing. We got that done, moved to Ari's house and then unloaded her room into the carport, tetris'd the truck, repacked it and then were done. Its good that I lift and we've all worked together so many times loading and unloading for wars and setting up. Made things just work great. We had dinner with them later and all was good.
I had had a 90 minute massage after moving stuff and was tired and slept in a bit Saturday. Willa called needed some love and company for for brunch since it was the anniversary of the death of her dad and it was nice. Then I got home and started in on the project in ernest and it went really well. Then I spent the evening crocheting and watching TV. Sunday was watching kittens and laundry and seeing friends and crocheting too much. oops.
But it was a weird week and there is lots going on but all is good.
