::taps microphone:: This thing still on?
Hey.
It's been a while.
I'm addicted to Facebook, so if you know me personally...then you know everything that's going on in my world happens over there. But my Memories led me back to my LJ, which led me back here to see what I've missed updating.
~*~
Dad got married back in Nov. of 2021, to his housekeeper, Edna. That was a clusterfuck as he picked a date that my brother and his family couldn't make it to. So they missed the wedding.
This has led to Chris basically cutting Dad out of his life. He doesn't call, he doesn't visit, and he doesn't check-in for health updates. But who am I kidding, he hasn't done any of that for several years prior to Dad getting married, because of some racist bullshit Dad said years ago.
Dad's health is getting worse. He's been suffering from mini-strokes and a possible seizure disorder. He's falling a lot, and I'm afraid he's going to break something. I've shared this with Chris, but his level of give-a-shit is nil.
We've got my youngest niece's Quinceanera coming up next month, and Dad wants to go...apparently there's a special dance with the Grandfather/Granddaughter that he wants to do. But his body is so unsteady, I just don't know if he's going to be able to do it.
Chris has said that if Dad doesn't come, then he's going to cut him out of his life permanently...and then when I talked with my oldest niece, Alexis...they didn't even have a table placement for Dad, because they assumed he wouldn't be coming. Double standard much?
I want to throttle both of them on alternate days. The Taylor men have tempers and can nurse a grudge until the end of time.
~*~
Back in Jan., I had a run-in with the `Rona. Thankfully it was a mild case and I was put on the anti-viral meds quickly...so I didn't have any long-term effects.
~*~
The Beloved Spouse is looking toward his 4th year teaching as a Paraprofessional with an Elementary school here in town. And I just celebrated my 6th anniversary as a cashier at the DFAC at Sheppard.
We're getting a pay bump next month (Thanks, Biden) as they have to bring all Federally contracted workers up to $15/hr. I'm hoping they'll stagger the pay levels a bit...if they do, I could be making $16/hr or a little more soon.
~*~
I need to dust this thing off and start writing more. I've got so many half-started stories that are crying for attention. I need to break myself off the Zukerberg nipple and get back to the thoughtful person I used to be.

I just hope that they resolve things before my brother learns to regret his anger.
