I haven't updated this in a month. I got off the habit when something happened and I just shut myself in. Oh, the life of an introvert >.>

A month ago my sister went off to drink. Once again didn't come home until the early hours of the morning and slept the entire next day. The difference this time was that I had gone to the bar to pick her up. I saw a side of her I never wanted to see. Not because she was drunk or anything. I kept telling her we had to go home, that she had promised mom and she should go home for her son. She didn't care in the presence of her friends. To her, nothing was more important than doing what her friends expected of her. It was like nothing existed outside of that bar. I lost all trust in her. Her family is only a temporary existence. I hardly even see her as a sister.

Had some frustrating things happen. I had a family reunion and boy was it loud. It didn't take long for my disorder to go crazy and I was sitting secluded for the rest of the day. The whole week I could hear or read. Now there is a family reunion with the Varner family next month but I'll just have to tell my mom I can't go. I'll probably volunteer to watch my nephew so they don't have to watch him.

Two people have had surgeries... sort of. My grandfather had a shoulder replacement. They broke his arm during the surgery. He was in a lot of pain afterwords. He was suppose to take it easy after leaving, but, of course, he hasn't. My grandma's not too happy with him but she won't fight it.

My mom was suppose to have surgery today on her vocal cords. The put her out but realized her mouth was too small for the tools they had. She'll have to go to a hospital in Minneapolis to get it done. I was looking forward to three days he wouldn't talk but oh well.

So those are the major moments of the past month. I think back to it and it makes me feel exhausted XD
