My in-laws want a big family gathering before new year. I’ve long COVID, already been infected twice & not yet recovered from the last infection. Given the numbers of people involved and the number of kids, i don’t think it’s sensible for me to be there but i don’t want to let my wife down or create a family issue. Sadly my in-laws are probably more in the “COVID is over” camp, not sure they will understand me with a FFP2 or 3 mask either 🙁

Shout out to everyone navigating challenging family dynamics this weekend. Take a breath. You got this. They are doing the best they know how to do. You aren’t doomed to your origin story. It might seem impossible, but you can craft an authentic life for yourself. Yes, really.

I was raised a traditional Southern Baptist.

And this week with my retired pastor dad showed me that my traditional upbringing left me with ZERO internal resources for maintaining good mental health or achieving healthy family dynamics.

Like, NONE.

When you find out that cousin of yours, the one who buys his wife the clothes he wants her to wear and who doesn't know how to make his coffee because his wife and his secretary make it for him, is an even bigger jerk than you thought ... but you're actually not surprised.

@GeePawHill Saving this one to ponder as my Sunday story could well lead to more of the same unless I reframe. Not sure I am interpreting the post correctly.

This is a bit of comics journaling about visiting my Mom recently. It's just something I drew for myself, with no particular thought to sharing it. But I know a lot of you are slowly losing parents to dementia, or already have, so I'm posting it here for those of you who can relate.
I wrote more about the challenges, & also the unexpected *gifts* of dementia here, if you're interested:

I can't help but think of the book "Are You My Mother?" when my Mom asks if I'm her daughter. Here we are, she and I, navigating yet another role-reversal. But that dynamic is familiar territory for us.
If you can't read my handwriting, I've transcribed all of it in the image description below.
