Blah

I've neglected writing in this blog for a little bit.  I have a few updates on my cousin and updates on myself.

My cousin was discharged from the hospital six days ago and he is doing well right now.  It took him a few days, but he's able to get up and down the stairs now (quickly nonetheless).  Today we had a surprise birthday party for him (and my dad) and it was fun.  I don't think it was really a surprise--I'm 99% positive my aunt told him in advance that we were coming...We made a lot of food, ate a lot of food, talked, ate cupcakes, and just sat around. 

To be honest, all this family closeness has slowly been getting on my nerves.  I've been experiencing a lot of difficulty with the responsibility over my cousin's medical care, finances transportation, translation, and disability claim.  It's getting really stressful and I'm getting pretty grouchy :-\

To deal with my new responsibility, I've been "stress eating."  I'm really ashamed of admitting this, but I've been so unhealthy the past two weeks.  And of course, once you get into unhealthy habits, it's hard to get out of them.  So, I've decided that I'm going to change up how I've been living.  It's not going to be a huge change, but I think I need a little more organization in my life.  I'm working on creating better meal schedules because it gets hectic with the hours that I work.
