Day 1

Hello again

Day 1 and I barely slept last night, kept waking up every two hours. And I was completely bagged today. I had no desire to even speak with anyone. All I wanted to do was go and take care of mom and speak to her, and her only. It never fails, on the bus this women whom I have spoken with in the past, sat down besides me and asked if I was going to see mom.  And then she spoke and I listened all the way into Vancouver. I almost missed my stop. Though I had no desire to speak with anyone, the conversation was nice..

Today mom was also extremely tired. It is like she didn't get any sleep at all last night. I found out tonight the roommate talks in her sleep. Not good for mom.

She barely was able to eat she was so tired. We were able to get a good bit of dinner down and the fruit and dessert. Before mom was just out of it. I knew she was tired, when I arrived, as she was leaning.

So I just put her to bed, gave mom the spa treatment and stayed and held her hand.

For me, besides being there for mom, it was a bad beginning of a new year. I don't want to be living here anymore. Just tired of it. Tired of the bullshit. Tired of constantly asking the landlord for heat.

Yes I have no heat and it is freezing out and inside here. I have layers of sweaters on. And all of my blankets and sheets. It is minus something outside and getting close to that in here. My only option is to contact the residential tenancy branch and the complaint process takes months.

I have to go.

The year has started out to be a shitty one and I am freezing. Need to sleep.

GOD bless and good night
