Family matters

Oi vey it is cooking around here!!

The parents in law is getting remarried, the divorce was only a couple of years ago. All the time they were married previously it was a bit of a love hate affair. Now they have turned super religious and are taking ago at life together. Maybe they are just trying to chase the lonely bugs and fears of latter years away.

My bro screwed up somewhat and will spend his 36th birthday in jail. Not sure what the ramifications of that will be and how his future will pan out after this bit of trouble. My poor mom has been in tears for near on a week now, but as all good and loving parents will do - supports him all the way and tries to organise his life. My father is just a wreck and paces up and down till all the carpets will need replacing.

The bil's, well the older one is just finishing his role in the Sun City extravaganza and will move onto the next eye catching stage personality. His struggle with his sexuality and place in the world is ongoing, but at least he has come to love and accept himself. Something his parents are still trying to come to terms with. When will they stop trying to convince him that he is not gay??

The younger one - he is still trying to find his place in the world and has turned to scientology for all the answers. I just wish he will investigate the world and read wider before he devotes himself to such a restrictive lifestyle. Suppose we should take a bit better care of him as he is out on his own to a large extend with no tertiary education and no means to attain it. He really got the bottom end of the drawer. But he is such a nice young man and he really is doing a good job supporting himself on a minimal income. Even bought himself his pride and joy in an old dilapidated little car.

Phil resigned his job and will be working for the company that bought the other business in which he had interests, but which never really flew. That business not only cost us a lot of money, but nearly our marriage (and we are still not out of the dark) so the associations I have with it is not all that positive. Suppose, if you do not risk you do not gain. Lets see if we can keep it all together this time round.
