I know that the full moon officially was yesterday, but the lunacy caught up with us today.
I've had a headache all day that nothing would ease. Of course, my mom was in constant meltdown today, making my headache almost unbearable.
And then the hot water pipes in the basement sprung a leak after I took a shower this evening.
At this moment, I don't care if the whole blasted house and everyone in it springs a leak. I'm going to Albany tomorrow because if I don't get out of here for at least 24 hours, I'm going to have a meltdown to end all meltdowns.
I've about reached the end of my patience and compassion. So, even when, in a semi-lucid moment she said "Don't throw me away," I barely felt a heart tug.
What about the years of my life that I'm "throwing" away -- years I'll never get back. Her life is hardly a life at all. And mine is wasting away.
