Long story but I needed to take some time away from a lot of things to focus on my family and evaluate some things i.e. work. A couple years ago my Father's health deteriorated due to dementia and he passed away last year at the end of May. After his death, I have been spending a lot of time helping my Mom with her medical issues and remodeling her house so as she ages she can stay in her house as long as possible. My Dad's passing hit me pretty hard which has lead me to do some soul searching. Tired of the continuous bs at work and feeling like I could no longer do my job effectively I wrote a resignation letter but couldn't bring myself to hand it in. I love my job and the people I worked nightshift with but it was sucking the life out of me. After two months of constant berating and bs, I finally turned in the resignation and have been unemployed since January. I wish I could say that I've been catching up on some much needed rest and enjoying the time off but honestly I've been so busy finishing up remodeling at my Mom's house I've had little free time. So, now you know the rest of the story.

You might be waiting a while I haven't found much humor in things lately.

The house remodeling, I remember having to do the folks' house when Mom went to the nursing home.....what a mess, sis and I went nutz holding estate sales and the shock of a lifetime to the trash company, they were used to just picking up a little plastic grocery bag once a week, that was just trash, the office clean out was 3 trips to the dump 3/4 ton 6 door VAN, chock full.....checks and receipt dating back near 50 years.....

then there was the carpeting on the floor for 30 years, wood floors in perfect condition.....kitchen had all the OEM appliances old Fridgidaire by GM yet.....house built in '62....

It would be interesting to see inside the house I got older in, and their last home, just curiosity
