Cared for my wife from 2017-23. Alzheimer's is terminal, progressive, and devastating for all concerned. J now lives in 24/7 care. 😭 While dying, dad told us his dad & gran were Aboriginal, calling his grandparents a combo - an illegal mixed couple. Who knew? Not me. True? No idea. Yet. I toot as a white man, & benefit from the privilege that brings in Australia. I live on Darug land. I follow people, but get a little confused when people follow me.🤷♂️

It occurs to me I've been procrastinating about termite damage for 15y+. It was discovered well before I was made redundant^^early retired 11y ago.
I had reasons, good ones, but I always do, don't I?🤷🙄
So far:
✅: the house isn't falling down. Sagging, but who isn't?
❌: the house isn't falling down. I was on a run, I could have procrastinated for Australia!
❌: now I have to keep going. I can't live with wall linings off.
✅: now I have to keep going.
