islandchildMain event yesterday was mom getting her credit card hacked. Somebody used it to purchase tickets to Brazil with one of these strange airlines that doesn't seem to have a real number online.
She called the local bank here and it should be resolved but it sent her into a paroxysm of stress. Mom has gained a lot of weight and she doesn't eat well. She has high blood pressure and high blood sugar. Worst of all, she is delusional about the habits that got her there in the first place and my dad is delusional about his contribution to it. He does most of the cooking now. He uses buckets of oil in everything.
With all the stress of these last few months it's my greatest fear something will happen to mom. I'm just praying she can change some habits and find a new will to live a long time. At least she has the garden which excites and motivates her.
Anyway, yesterday Denia's husband called Khem to ask if his Subaru was still for sale. K still has to fix it so he said no. I should come up with a nickname for Denia's husband.
Gaz?
Gaz and Khem used to be very close when Khem lived up North. K was a groomsman at Gaz's wedding to Denia, which is how I met him in the first place. Gaz and Denia live a fast life. He has a well paying job that is highly stressful, so he unwinds through partying and spending all his money. K & I are like the boring friends who enjoy a good time but want to be home by midnight.
K told me if he sold the Subaru to Gaz he'd be afraid the man would kill himself with it. The Subaru is FAST. It's got a turbo engine. I loved driving that thing but the gas mileage was terrible. K wants about $14k EC for it once he gets the battery fixed, or something.
Last night we put a bunch of movie names in a container and drew for one. We got Prince of Egypt.
Gorgeous movie but K hates singing in movies. LOL.
What else? It rained like crazy last night. Most likely no beach today.
Have to work. This journal and taking my vitamins are the only habits I have maintained consistently.
I want to be completely transparent and spill all the tea in here so I need to just double check on the privacy. Nobody from the island uses this platform I am 99% sure but you never know. If I found it, anyone can.
Being home I feel a hundred times more paranoid and stressed. I don't sleep as well and I don't eat well. Need to work on keeping my composure...and working hard so I can get the hell out of here.
