They left our house very reluctantly on 1/31/2024 with just some clothes and went to the senior home. They stayed 30 minutes, left because it was too small, and then lived in a hotel for two weeks. They finally went back to the apt because it was paid for. He said he wasn't going to live there - it was full of old people and not "his cup of tea". So because they didn't take any household stuff, I decided to go to Florida and help them set up their apt in the vain hope it would make things better.

My sister then decided she was ALSO going to come and help. So she books a flight and I basically became her chauffeur for the trip. Plus she NEVER stops talking. Like one of these people who has to say every single thing that comes into their head. My sister is my Dad 2.0 (an improved nicer version, but also crazy as hell and an evangelical Christian to boot).

Anyways, I was there for almost a week, drove 8 hours back to GA, and the VERY NEXT MORNING AT 7AM , my dad called and said they were moving back to Georgia.

So then began the next part of the drama, fielding constant phone calls from him about finding an apt in GA (right around the corner from us!) or maybe in Sarasota (lol), putting my mom in a nursing home ASAP, complaints, etc, etc. Long story short - I basically cut all contact and my sister told him he needed to stay put - that if he came back here we would have nothing to do with them and they would be entirely on their own.

So! That's where we are now. I can't even begin to cover everything that's happened in that time. I saw the senior home they are living in and it's really nice. He's crazy - I would love to live there and have activities and food downstairs and a nice little patio and the beach just around the corner.

I saw the CrassSignal in the sky from hv and Colleen a few days ago but I was still too traumatized to post. I love you guys for the call out and support. The last few weeks have been beyond awful. But I'm better and things are finally looking up. They left our house at the end of Jan. I've been packing all their shit and that has been therapeutic. One day I took all his notebooks full of crazy Q-Anon shit he printed and threw them in the dumpster.

I did a little summary of the last few weeks in the reply if you are interested. They are currently in Port Charlotte, FL but who knows if they will stay there. It changes every day.

Every news story coming out of Gaza is so upsetting but this latest story of the three murdered hostages has really hit me hard. Those poor men, after all this time in captivity, finally escaping and trying to surrender to Israeli soldiers who immediately shot them. Didn't even hesitate to kill them. Even the one who begged for his life in Hebrew

Jesus H Christ, that is awful about the guy and his dog. I am so sorry. That's information you would have been better off not knowing.

I'm sorry about all the stress in the house too. Sending strong healing hugs your way.

One of us needs to win big and get the Crass Compound going.

I should get Parks and Rec. That's a fantastic price. Worth it for the flu episode alone.

Actually it would make a great tv show. The absolute insanity of old people is comedy gold. Do it!!

Yeah, this is the end of the line. Mr SZ is taking over after this. I just can't do this anymore. We've discussed me going to an airbnb for a month and he gets them out during that time. And my dad won't be able to find me and he can't manipulate my husband. I'm hoping it won't come to that but I am so done.
