Katsolo's Journal, 14 Mar 20

What a freaking nightmare. My brother has completely lost it, texting me long rants in an extremely formal disconnected voice in the middle of the night, like 3:21AM, that's panic, not partying. I'm sure he's drinking as well. He's locked my mother in her room for her own good (his words, not mine) and taken her car keys and then sent me a text with this information "for my reference and record". WTF, dude? You wanna survive this, you need to stop drinking and keep your wits about you. He's going to kill himself with stress at some point. There's a difference between taking reasonable measures and going down a rabbit hole.

I told her this morning that I will assume all texts are being monitored and that I need her to endure for two weeks so we can get through the brunt of this. I have a lot of thoughts that I'm not putting down here because they will do no one no good and I just need to get her out of that living situation, I think. He's sending me link after link of how the virus affects the body. They're going to all be trapped in the house together for two weeks, so that'll be something.

Going to focus on work, cleaning, and taking care of myself since I think it's safest for me to just drive up there and get her rather than putting her on a plane or train. 7 hours each way - doable. After that, I may be done with him. He's changed so much, it's like dealing with the very ugly side of my dad again. God, he would flip out if he saw those words. It's true though. He resents me, deep down, so it just is what it is. He offered less than zero help when I was caring for my dad, he's a total control freak with my mom. I can't respect that. Ugly words, but truth. Sad.

Venting. May delete. If you're going through something similar, you're not the only one. Enough computer time. Time to get moving, not get sucked in. Enjoy the day. Raining here. Again. We need it though.

I’m going to get my uncle to talk with him. If he thinks my mom is being mistreated, I’ll just go get her.
