No time for family

I have finally reached the conclusion that there is no more time or energy to devote to my hapless family. Honestly, I think they are stupid. One cashes in their retirement for a big purchase since they will save money in the long run - don't ask for an explanation, it makes no sense. The other breaks a bone while drunk and thinks nobody knows the truth (they blew their retirement too). Another changes jobs like I change underwear - wait, I change daily but anyway you get the point. On top of the job hopping is the fact that all of his kids are addicts but that is the spouse's fault. There is more, but after some time it has finally beat me down - really, who cares or why care when they don't? And, don't even ask them for any type of help with anything as they are suddenly busy (or drunk/hungover - vicious cycle). I help time and time again, but I am done - no really, I am done. I am turning my back and concentrating on my own life and real friends. I still stay in touch with mom but she was not happy with me saying all of my siblings are stupid. They may read this, but I have faith in their dense heads that they'll never understand.

My dad is going to die very soon

I walked into his apartment and sat beside his bed as he lay asleep. His wife gave a nudge and his bleary eyes opened halfway. A half smile...
