/ irl : having a difficult time this morning, mom has sunken into depression regarding the courts here and their trumped-up charges and while we've been exploring what we can do it's very rock meets hard place and she's sleeping and just miserable so there's that
i'll be cherry-picking tags this morning / afternoon because of that but this evening i should be more fully into my tag swing. sorry in advance if i seem off. being a caretaker is hard on the most normal of days but this is kind of just a lot of stuff compounding all at once.

it's okay. just frustrating because we don't have the money and they can't really hold her at least not the way they could hold a citizen that was healthy and so it's all intimidation and bleeding the public and i just can't
taking my mom into town for her medication. it's been a week since that officer stopped by our house exactly so we'll see how it goes. I'll have my phone just in case. i want to crawl into a hole and hibernate / never come out???
