Everyone is sick besides me. Which means it's only a matter of time until I go down too. Which means I've been trying to work my job and Danielle's job at the same time so neither of us lose our jobs. While I run home to take care of everybody. Alex has not worn clothes in three days. I think she'd go out of the house in her underwear if she had the energy for things like standing and walking.
Danielle lost her voice two days after Christmas and still hasn't found it. Aunt Elaine hasn't left her bedroom in over a week. Not even to go sit in the living room.
There are three eggs left. All the food I eat comes from the diner or bagel shop. All the food in the house is from there too right now. I have a mild concussion from Danielle throwing things at my head for attention because she can't talk.
We are not doing well. To top it all off there is no fire family dinner tomorrow. On one hand I'm glad because I would be sad canceling but on the other hand it sucks because I need a break and you can always count on really good food.

Hope you and your sisters are feeling better and getting back to school goes smoothly.
I wish you could tell a fire person or Josh or someone that everyone is sick and with everything falling to you, you could use some help with mundane tasks like doing laundry and procuring and preparing healthful food. People in more typical family situations need this type of help on occasion and put word out and receive the help needed from other families and friends.
Hope everyone is better soon, hang in there. I wish for you in the new year that someone or group of someone's emerge to give you a bit of help, especially during times like this.
All the Best,

Hi Sam, My names Ash, I'm a 23 your girl from Australia. And I just read your entire blog in one sitting. I'm not sure how I randomly found it but I felt like I kinda could relate to you. I lost my Dad without warning last year and I can't imagine how you must be feeling. But you don't sound like the type that is wanting sympathy. I'd just like to say that I think your writing is great and I'd love to chat to you sometime my email is ashleighjayneatkinson@gmail.com :)
