Hey y'all Nekorlie here. I know I had been gone for a month. I do apologize for this. I hated just disappearing, but it was out of my control. It all started with an incident at work. Because of this incident my institution has been on lockdown since June 29, 2017. We are currently still under lockdown due to the severity. Up until Wednesday July 26, 2017 for added staff we were more or less working 12-16 hour shifts. I had no days off due to the fact that we had multiple people are out of extended sick leave and CERT (prison SWAT) taking people off shift. As you could guess I was extremely tired.

Thankfully we have started to slowly transition to a normal schedule and CERT members returning to shift the demand for the extended shifts and no days off has slowed down.

Along with work I have had one friend go into a diabetic coma, one hospitalized and still hospitalized, and both my grandmother and husband rushed to the ER. I distanced myself from gaia because I didn't want to accidentally snap at my friends. It may have been a bad decision, but I felt it was a bad decision.

Days off still aren't guaranteed yet. So I will be on when I can. Thank you all for understanding. biggrin
