I believe my family is doomed to wallow in the bog of madness. I am the only sibling from my mother’s side who …god I can’t even say it for fear of the jinx.
- One sister is a raging alcoholic who can’t get her life straight enough to keep a car on the road.
- A brother who is a closet homosexual AND is a raging lunatic.
- A mother who is delusional to the point she can’t take care of herself.
- Another sister who is so mean and nasty that she can’t get a break out of life.
The latter sister left her husband for another man, closed up her lucrative business and moved out West. All this since Christmas day last year. This is the same one who showed up to my father’s funeral and the gathering afterward only to leave immediately with family photo albums she had been wanting since my parents divorced then danced on his grave afterward. I’ve only heard through the grapevine what she’s doing because it seems she doesn’t like me. I actually surprised myself when I realized that she didn’t like me. I only gathered that after she hadn’t spoken to me for over a year -oh and the whole father theatrics.
It seems the family jinx is still working in full force. The man that she left with shot himself last week in a suicide attempt. I don’t know any more details than that. I have mixed feelings about this. I’ve got the devil on one side saying one thing and the angel saying another and they’re fighting. I don’t want to feel good about it, it’s not right so there! It really is a terrible thing for any partner to go through.
Hubby is having the same feelings right now. He told me that it just makes him happier that we're together.
