It's tough being the only one awake in your family. Doesn't matter what you do or say, you cannot connect the dots for them. I've actually damaged several relationships trying to wake family up. It SUCKS. That's why I've literally given up and just find the (dark) humor in everything.
Me, my wife is the same, so I prepare stealthy. Her brother found a country store out of town. Food, fuel, community, feed, hardware, well water exc. We saved and bought it, now she runs it and has made great friendships “farmers”, they stop in everyday and have coffee or lunch. The place even has an apartment which she stays a lot. So now we have a bug out position in the middle of nowhere USA and she doesn’t even realize it. I’m a sneaky devil.

I will not sit around a table discussing the weather or grandkids with these people.
If they don't want to hear it fine, but then that is all they are going to hear from me, because I will not be there.

Nice play, Shakespeare!
I even have half a freezer of deer meat, I didn’t even hunt this year.
