I'm a bit peed off tonight. Sibling rivalry?
There are 5 of us, 2 girls, 3 boys. All range between 40 and 55 year oldies. Us boys just sorted it out years ago, but the girls FFS, why can't they sort their **** out! Big day planned this Sunday for Mum. A family lunch with friends for her 80th. Dads not well, my wife is not well, but the girls are at it. They haven't spoken since their Faceless book blow up with their kids fully involved and that was kin years ago. Two of the most important people in my life have a terminal illness that will end their life. The next few years for me are going to be pretty effin stressfull and no doubt depressing. So what WTF can any one suggest apart from locking those two in a room for a week. I have already stepped down from my position at work to try lower the stress level and don't want to go up on the meds, (which are only mild at this stage!)
At the end of each day after work, the only thing that makes me happy is coming home to my lovely wife, and playing with our kids (4 legged variety).
Surely it has to get better than this!

Families, eh?

There is no shame in taking yourself out of the stressful situation. A quiet word to mum about why may be best for you.
