I will have a brief stint at it for 3 weeks while she is away in June and then take over shortly after!

I can't believe how life is right now...I feel as though I am dreaming

the only stress right now is coming from my brother...he is one disaster after another and has had me on a sick roller coaster for quite some time. The latest disaster he was burgled they took everything including his clothes...grrr! So I am taking him clothes shopping tomorrow. He also needs food and and a new heater cause they took all that stuff too

Hubby and I have been invited to a friends house for some drinks and a meal and my brother has already made it clear he has no one to go to and wants to be with me so I will have to take him with me. You have to understand, my brother is very sick (mentally) and takes a lot of hard work to be around him. He manipulates me and leaves me feeling empty, anxious and sad by the time he has gone. I don't know how I am going to deal with him ....I know I shouldn't invite him but how can I leave him all alone on new years eve?

Sorry, this was meant to be a happy post but I guess it is really bothering me.
Hey, congrats on the promotion ! Looks like it just keeps getting better and better for you Good stuff.

How to help your brother is tricky, but I think you're making the right decision by spending time with him. He is, after all, an important person in your life, so I feel you should go ahead and help him. But, at some point, you need to start weaning him off your assistance ... try to get him to become independent eventually. Is that possible ?

Again, I'm very happy for you
