We survived the year. I even bought a photo book from google to commemorate our almost 100% alone year. Just like old times in the RV really so no biggy, but I think it annoyed other people more than us. My new sister for example seems to feel blown off. We didn’t go to her mom’s for Christmas and went on one hike that didn’t feel very socially distanced due to heavy breathing. We should hike something flat next time I guess.
I didn’t talk to my mom or sister all year really, til near the very end. My sister left her husband (😊) and came back to Spokane (😖), got covid and lives in a Homeless shelter for homeless people with Covid. I had to write her to find out if she was alive. Even if I wanted to see her I can’t just visit a homeless shelter for people with Covid anyway, so I spent a week thinking she was probably dead. Her health is awful, sometimes I wonder how she’s alive at all. She’s overweight (up to 300 lbs), has seizures and doesn’t medicate properly, she has drank mostly Mountain Dew for a liquid, upwards of 64oz a day and has been hospitalized for dehydration. She eats terrible, doesn’t really cook and she’s been homeless most her adult life. When I found out she was alive it was a relief but she still can’t stay with us, not only because she has covid but because it won’t help her in the long run anyway. She needs to use the system to get a place and on her feet, and I hope she does.
Nothing much else for now. We just hiked, played video games, watched Star Trek, the usual.
Hurrah 2021! No more trump!
