I’ve mentioned more times than I can count<\/strong><\/span>
the frustration I bear <\/strong><\/span>
over being a member of 3 siblings<\/strong><\/span>
2 of whom can’t seem to step up <\/strong><\/span>
where their mother is concerned<\/strong><\/span>
<\/strong><\/span>
I’ve also mentioned <\/strong><\/span>
that we almost lost my mother <\/strong><\/span>
to passive suicide <\/strong><\/span>
3 weeks ago<\/strong><\/span>
<\/strong><\/span>
today she announces that <\/strong><\/span>
my bother has decided<\/strong><\/span>
to move his 17 yr old son <\/strong><\/span>
in with Grandma<\/strong><\/span>
while he goes to University<\/strong><\/span>
<\/strong><\/span>
?????<\/strong><\/span>
<\/strong><\/span>
said 17 yr old son<\/strong><\/span>
while a wonderful kid<\/strong><\/span>
and I love him to death<\/strong><\/span>
is spoiled on levels <\/strong><\/span>
I can’t even begin to describe<\/strong><\/span>
<\/strong><\/span>
and<\/strong><\/span>
she’s not going to let him<\/strong><\/span>
pay part of the rent<\/strong><\/span>
or the food<\/strong><\/span>
<\/strong><\/span>
I’m like<\/strong><\/span>
“what”?<\/strong><\/span>
“are you outta yer fucking mind?”<\/strong><\/span>
<\/strong><\/span>
I think I feel a move to Guam <\/strong><\/span>
in my not too distant future.<\/strong><\/span>
<\/strong><\/span>
so the bother <\/strong><\/span>
didn’t get it together in time<\/strong><\/span>
to get his boy into housing for U<\/strong><\/span>
<\/strong><\/span>
and as a matter of convenience <\/strong><\/span>
they’ll move the kid in with the woman<\/strong><\/span>
that can’t walk next door for groceries<\/strong><\/span>
but can make it the block to the liquor store<\/strong><\/span>
no problem….<\/strong><\/span>
<\/strong><\/span>
or<\/strong><\/span>
can’t make it to the bank on her own<\/strong><\/span>
or can’t cook in her own home<\/strong><\/span>
or has no room in her home<\/strong><\/span>
cos she’s like the old crazy lady<\/strong><\/span>
all her cupboards and closets <\/strong><\/span>
fulla stuff she can’t make herself <\/strong><\/span>
throw away<\/strong><\/span>
<\/strong><\/span>
and into this <\/strong><\/span>
they are moving a 6 ft 5in, <\/strong><\/span>
17 yr old<\/strong><\/span>
that sleeps till 3<\/strong><\/span>
eats enough to sink large battle ships<\/strong><\/span>
plays electric guitar<\/strong><\/span>
at warp factor 8<\/strong><\/span>
and then goes back to sleep<\/strong><\/span>
<\/strong><\/span>
so I call the fadder<\/strong><\/span>
to vent<\/strong><\/span>
and I say…<\/strong><\/span>
“over the years<\/strong><\/span>
both the bother and the blister <\/strong><\/span>
have promised to step up to the plate<\/strong><\/span>
and as a result of them not doing so<\/strong><\/span>
I’m about 10 grand in the hole<\/strong><\/span>
and going stark raving mad”<\/strong><\/span>
<\/strong><\/span>
and the fadder says<\/strong><\/span>
“I think you should keep an open mind”<\/strong><\/span>
<\/strong><\/span>
????<\/strong><\/span>
<\/strong><\/span>
my mind ain’t closed<\/strong><\/span>
and neither are my eyes <\/strong><\/span>
dammit!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
