Just to get some things off my chest....
My family has went to hell in a handbasket since my brother and mom died. My siblings that are left are mostly a constant source of frustration. Here lately, my sister seems irritated that I haven't really included her in my wedding plans, and my two brothers are just plain irritating. They are now living together basically and neither one has a liscense. And even though they have money and time to do anything and everything that the *feel* like doing, neither one can make time to get out to see my dad. It really pisses me off because when I have asked them about it their response is "he drives by my house at least 3-4 times a week". That is the most piss poor excuse I have EVER heard! It is yet another one of their crutches to make them feel like the victim. Yes, he does drive by their house and yes, the don't have liscenses. BUT they are able to find a ride to Banner, or to Trina's house, or to wherever they want to drink at. AND I have offered to stop and pick them up every week when I go to dads.
They are the most self centered people I have ever met. Don't they realize what dad is going through? He lost his firstborn son, then 4 months later his wife of 40 years!!!! He is having one hell of a time adjusting and no one can see past their own hurt to realize that he needs to be INVITED at a specific time or asked to come get them and he would. He needs them so much right now and they aren't there. Just like when mom died, and she needed them. They weren't there. Someday they will have the same regrets that they did from her only this time it will be from him. So sad. Maybe between now and then they will grow up.
