Look at it this way - under the current handicap system - your well over halfway to scratch!!

You are me
Except I’m 64, knackered back, knackered knees, heart valve issues and no functioning stomach muscles on the right side and bald.
You don’t practice and you don’t play enough
In the past 6 months I’ve been able to go down to 3 days work a week, so been playing more often ( Apart from the crappy weather currently)
My index has dropped from 25.5 to 19.8
It can be done, you need to just do it more often
And forget the knockers, they are just jealous that they can’t improve as much as you can

In golf, there's always someone better, and there's always someone worse.
playing golf is precisely that, not practicing. i loved playing, and didn't really practice except when i started. though trying to maintain my handicap of 2 some was required.
there's nothing quite like playing, if thats what you enjoy do that.

To answer your questions:
How bad am I? Terrible, but so are most recreational players.
Should I care? No. As long as you are having fun.

We have a guy just like the O.P. Started at 32 five years ago......now off 22. We have no idea whether his next shot will kill someone, or he'll belt it down the middle.
I think I have said some unkind things in the past, but now we just let him get on with it.
A bit of practice on the range would do him no harm. Plus the odd lesson.
