It's happened...

My dad is leaving, he turned to my mom a few days ago and said, one time in his life he's allowed to take off without any obligations and bindings. That's exactly what he said! Now he's going off! He quit his job, moved nearly all his money from his bank account to my mom's and he's leaving. He told us he needs to go on a spiritual retreat. Ha! as if.

I know he doesn't have another family and he's not cheating on my mom. He says he needs time to himself. I'm wondering if this is all my doing, I did say anything wrong but it did sound harsh. Did I do this? I know he's really disappointed in his kids. My brother keeps going the down the chain of decency,  and I? Other than my refusal to marry, I've been a model child and also other than my sharp tongue.

My mom seems surprisingly OK with all of this. She says she knows where he's going, I think he might be going to India or Turkey. Either way our families are there and his friends. I'm losing sleep, again.
