Still here, still stressed

I just wanted to drop a quick note, that's all I have time for anymore, just to say I am still around. My broken hearted (more like broken soul) mom has gone into the hospital where they can hopefully help her through her grief and give her some coping techniques. All she does is whimper and sob. It is heartbreaking. Meanwhile, my step-dad has come to live with us while she is away. He's no trouble, but it is still stress. Ethan has continued to pull some of the same old bs (Brandy, I talked to you about this) and I am feeling tired and stressed. So that is where i am at right now.
