He was drinking as early as 8 or 9, and we told him no more, not until noon, or later. Besides his drinking he always turns the tv to war movies, old movies, and stuff like that. I pay about 150 dollars a month so that his room, my husband's room, mine & my husbands room, and the living room has tv, but my brother won't go up to his room until 6,7,or 8 pm, after he has had all the beer he wanted for that day, then he eats. The hard thing is that the 3 of us are disabled. I try not to complain about my disabilities, so I guess they think that I am ok, so I can handle most of the things to be done. Yesterday my brother pointed out that there is a lot of dust on the living room tv, but he didn't get up and clean it off, neither did I. I think I am going to try to leave some things undone, and see if ether man takes care of it. Wishful thinking... If I don't do what ever, it don't get done.
Katydid, I don't know how you do it. If it was me, I would have kicked your brother out in a New York second. Hey, I just kicked my brother out of my place. He was not helping my marriage at all, too. My brother wasn't drinking when I kicked him out, I also don't like freeloaders. I also like my privacy, I don't like waking every morning to a lazy sucker in my house. We have so little in common it is not funny. Spiritually, politically, socially, and substance abuse wise we are polar opposites. I like to be able to relax around the house and not have high blood pressure from the moment I wake up. I don't put up with much hogwash these days. Be good to yourself Katydid! Shalom.
