One of the down sides of becoming older

Is having to walk away from someone you'd rather stand face to face with and kick the shoite of, if push came to shove.

That's what I had to do this evening when it came to my youngest brother and I'm angry with myself that I did, when it comes to him its a first .. I'm telling myself I done the right thing yet this inner voice keeps ringing in me ear, age is making me a coward sigh Decades before I am old roll eyes

I suppose when I'm holding the full deck, your song choice isn't wrong thumbs up

Beats feeling like a coward of the county sigh

I call it being wise enough to not waste the effort and time on a jerk who wont learn anyway.
Cheers for trying to make me feel better Orz wine

I'm nearly an entire week trying to get over a nasty bug so maybe I was conscious of how weak I'm still feeling and would not physically of been able for him if he became nasty.

But tomorrows a new day and hopefully I'll be stronger to knock his lights out boxing lol
Knocking the lights out of your younger brother, if only the flu could give you a break rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing
You're so sweet bouquet lol
Sounds like the best medicine would actually have been
to give him a surpirse kiss straight on the piehole,
you know... and let the germs do the rest laugh

Excuse me now Oz, but else are brothers for confused laugh

Glad to say I bravely faced and challenged him again this morning flex
so thankfully walking away sometimes isn't always an aging thing and despite having solved that issue, I now have a bigger one.. how can I kill him with the hope to be able to get away with it detective
My four moods. 1. I need coffee. 2. I need a nap 3. I need a vacation. 4. I need duct tape, rope and a shovel.
hmm... that will take some thinking through.. well it's cosy christmas time coming up so.. how about a tree falling over him never to be seen again,, or we can always blame it on santa rushing down the chimney on his neck just as your bro was putting another log, in it. I think we got this purple heart

Every SINGLE time I've killed someone I've regretted it, it gets harder and harder to hide the evidence and my patio now has stairs up to it instead of down. sigh

As I get older I get angrier faster over stupid smaller issues but they do burn off quicker. So someone turns out to be a FW - very mad mumbling sigh drinking hole roll eyes gotta go

Just not worth the concrete.
You ladies are dangerous...uh oh
If the confrontation was in your own home Stand your ground CW, to everyone..

If it's another place maybe a public place hold back and give it to them in private, family members know how far they can push you before trouble hits the fan..
What woman doesn't have mood swings wink

Thankfully I passed one of mine without any need for a shovel but right now I'd kill for a coffee laugh
I'm sure we have detective detective
even if going with a script wrote out for father Ted.

wow

Note to self typing

never get on the wrong side of Suziecute uh oh

Excluding my good self innocent

My thoughts exactly hole
Give it to them in private, sorry but that did make me laugh a little laugh
nevertheless, I totally agree.

My father is in hospital these past three months and because it now remains empty, I babysit his house. I was down checking on it over the weekend only to find his son who happens to be barred from the place, making himself at home... he didn't take too kindly to me telling him to get out.

Anyways he's since gone and hopefully that's the end of that.
That does sound a bit freaky Give to them in private now CW laugh But you were in the right if your bro is banned from your dad's place..
Walking away, doesn't mean you're weak or a coward, it just means you're the better person... and there's always a tomorrow laugh
Some change has happened since I brought out this blog, but to quickly fast forward....
At lunch time today I found out my brother is again back in my fathers house, and of course on hearing this I went down trying to get him out, when I couldn't, I had no choice but to ring the cops.

To cut to the chase, they could not remove him from the house as I had hoped, other than give good advice and what road next to take, legally there was nothing more they could do.

Legally he has as much right to be there as much as I or other siblings have ...
so going with MY rights would I be right in saying,I can still have him removed if push came to shove?
help
If your Father is compos mentis and doesn't want him in the house he should put it in writing and make it legal.

Other than that wait till he goes out ,change the locks and secure all windows ,then if he breaks in surely the law would have to intervene.

Good luck anyway handshake
Since my father had his wishes already written I too thought the law would be able to intervene.
My father died the 13th of this month, reasons why the law is now useless to us.

When I first went down earlier I seen all the pottery smashed in the porch, in the sitting room smashed ornaments family pictures all turned face done, his fist print through a lamp, likewise in the kitchen... when I went upstairs to find him stretched out on my fathers bed, all hell broke loose.

We can't even have him done for damaging the property, which isn't right and that I can't understand.

I have a plan for over the next few days, that is if no one else beats me to it first.
So sorry to read this sad news,my thoughts are with you.hug
We all have to go eventually, I'm not sad but thank you Spitz hug
who am I to begrudge his Christmas wish to find him.

Hope you and yours " dog included" had a good one wine



Come Monday if my brother is not out of the house like he promised to one of my sisters, you'll hear all about on our evening news... man mysteriously killed by a broom confused

I am someone worth knowing but I'll leave you to be the judge of that... lol
It's hard to describe myself as in personality wise, where I may not be the best, I most certainly am not the worst, but I do tend to be more on the quiet side, more so the [read more]
