I'm almost moving back home soon. For the past few days mom and I arrived at the house, cleaning and tidying the interior, because the house hasn't been cleaned since mom went in the nursing home for 5 months from a stroke and I had to stay at my aunt's house. It's been 10 months already, almost this entire year. I hate it so much. I'm homesick to death, and so is mom. She's nearly healed up, and we just need to get a few things done around the house. I want to get back home before Halloween. I'm 21 now, I finally have a job, and I should have my own house now, with a boyfriend and a car, and probably start a family. (I'm uneasy on that last part)

2023 is the worst year for me, but 2020 was far worse. I just want to go home. 😔
