When does it end?

Just wondering if some people will EVER grow up. At least three times a year, I get a collect call from a correctional facility in the area. Always from the same person, always for the same crap. If I had all of the money I put out to bail said family member out of jail, I suspect I could take a pretty sweet vacation....I mean, by the time you hit around 30, you should be fairly settled - especially if you are married with children. There is no reason to go out and drink constantly. AND if you go to jail for the SAME thing over and over again, obviously something has to change. Don't forget about the four, yes four, vehicles that have been impounded and stayed impounded.

I have done my best to remove myself from the situation, which doesn't do a whole lot for my relationship with my niece or nephew. I justify it by saying that I lived in a world filled with anxiety on a daily basis, wondering what was going to happen next or what happened when someone called from their house.

My grandpa has always said that there is a special place reserved for me in heaven because of all of the things I have been through and dealt with. I hope there is a drink waiting for me in my "special place". By the time I get there, I am going to need it.
