I don't like the cold.
It's North Texas and we have highs of about 15° F. We got 5 inches of snow today. Power is cycling every half hour. We stocked up on firewood so we're fairly warm so I guess that's a blessing to count. I only have internet for certain spots during the day though so I'm having a hard time turning in homework. Electric company says it'll probably be like this until Friday.
My dad is sick with Covid-pneumonia and we're burning through his backup oxygen. We don't know when he'll get better and even when he does he may not be able to work for a very long time, if ever. I may have to delay going to college to try and help pick up the slack. I don't mind not going to college for a bit, it's just a hard truth.
I haven't been this scared for as long as I can remember. Maybe if my dad wasn't sick I'd feel a lot better. I haven't even seen him in nearly three weeks since he first went into isolation. When my mom brought him to the hospital a little over a week ago, some of my siblings saw him on the way out and it really shook them up. Even my brother who isn't scared of anything was trying to hold back sobs. I want to see him, but I don't know if I'll be able to handle it.
If anyone around here prays, please mention me, my family, and my dad tonight if you remember to. Thanks.
