Today is my first day back to spending the night at mom's house. I'll have 13 nights here before Jim and the gals come down on the 21st and stay 2 nights. Unfortunately Paul isn't able to help for at least the next 14 days since Jackie tested positive for covid and they've been in contact with her. So what does this mean for and my family? It means my time at home gets cut short by 2 hours because I need to be back at mom's by 630p to give her dinner and medicine. It's awfully convenient that all this goes down when Ralph leaves and there's no one else to help. This is one of the many reasons I don't want to stay in contact with them after mom dies. When I first found out about this inconveniently timed covid result, I was extremely angry because I always get the shit end of the stick when it comes to my brothers. None of them understand the time I'm sacrificing from my family. I think Ralph has an idea but doesn't understand it completely. Once mom dies, all my time and attention will be finally directed towards my family to make up for lost time. Until then I'll have buckle down and get thru it. So much for thinking 2022 will be better. It's off to shity start.
