I need to get away (life update)
13 years ago
Dear Diary;
So, I to get away from my family for awhile...they don't seem to see it but they are causing me way too much stress...Even though half of it isn't anything that can be controlled...
For those who don't know...I've been taking care of my grandma for the last year and a half...I've watched her Parkinson's disease slowly take the woman I used to know and change her into some one I barely know...her dementia has really taken over. It's getting rough. But that is as far as I'm going. If you want a better idea what I'm going through...read this http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedh.....th/PMH0001762/ and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parkinson%27s_disease
And to top it all off. I've been looking at houses and apartments with a few friends. The houses, were owned by family and due to the fact my dad doesn't think it would be a good idea for me to move...I was unable to. So, now we're looking at apartments. Although after yesterday. I don't think those are going to work cause after everything is said and done I'll end up owing more then I make...by nearly 200 bucks. That's not counting the small things either, like food/gas, household supplies, ect.
I so can't wait for MFF...(Only 9 more days till I board that train and leave!) I really need this break from my day to day at the moment.
Also, thanks to a special friend of mine, I started counseling for my transgender transition on the 29th of last month. Appointments are free through work atm. Although, I only get 10. Lucky me, my counselor, Miss Day. Is spreading them to every 2 weeks so I can hopefully grab full time at work before then and use my medical coverage to help me with the appointments! I'm just glade that something good is happening right now. I really need it.
(Edit)
I am also happy to say I get a raise in late December along with a few more hours of work!
And finally I want to thank everyone who has been on and helping me. I don't know how to thank you all!
