Well,
I have to say that there are many of us that do jobs that our hearts do not let us go undone.
You all are good people and you know what it's like to swim against the tide.
Good work, You probably don't need to hear that, but it is nice to be noticed for doing it.
About the 'food delivery service' my littlest bro and sis were always doing that and it worked in reverse. I'd cook up a meal and they would walk in to her house with some fast food or something else.
Instead of calling to save a trip or to make sure that she was already eating they would take it upon themselves to bring her food. I am not mad about it-but I'd got to be a hassle because I'd freeze what ever I was cooking and mom would refuse to eat leftovers!
--------------
The brother next to me is sometimes a pain in my arse and a great guy. We fight and argue about all kinds of things but in the end he's a good guy.
He took my sis to task about what she said to me the other day-this afternoon he came in to discuss the lawyer and will.
BTW, Thanks to you all for the suggestions for lawyers, social workers and other things.
Because of his old job he was able to secure help from a former coworker for everything we need. This isn't the first time that people we have worked with have gone ahead and offered help at little or no cost to us.
------------------------
We also discussed what role my big sis would play in the process.
LOL, she called my bro and told him she'd be back next week and he should call her if we needed anything.
She didn't leave her cell number or anyway to get a hold of her. I guess if we yell loud enough she can hear about it in Minnesota.
Yestetday she was going to arrange for a priest to go visit her. She then turned around, gave the job to my SIL and never showed up at the time she was supposed to.
Since she didn't show up for the lawyer or priest meetings we called her about the news, to keep her in the loop. After the convo I handed the phone to my SIL and she said to her, "Did you call the priest, what did he say?" MY SIL described what happened and sis told her "Oh, that's great, you did good girlfriend, you go!"
That subject came up today-she called my bro and SIL last nigh to let them know that she was leaving and "was there if we needed her..."
THey then told me that they should watch out for me that she thought that I was going to commit suicide. She then went into a spiel about how she knew me really well and that I was going to kill myself before she came back from her vacation!
I am going to make it a priority to outlive that biatch. EVEN IF IT KILLS ME!!!!!
My brother then told her that since we had worked together on and off for the past three years that it was pretty unlikely that it would happen. I guess that it didn't go over very well that he knew me better that the prodigal sister.
I am still laughing about it!
The one 'saving grace' is my brother and SIL are getting tired of her and are beginning to see that it's going to be us doing the heavy lifting when all is said and done.
So, some good news today! And there is tomorrow.
Again, just gotta hang tough!

Hey,
Sometimes,when things go badly, stop and think about that ladder and thank your lucky stars you are not further down on the rungs.
It's all a matter of perspective!![]()
