When family attacks/elder care and sibs rant.

[jazzcat]

Ah yes, the family drama! I know how you feel Richard. My SIL is... well I can't say on this family forum but anyway she causes me the most grief. I recently found out from my Dad's neighbor that SIL called her (the neighbor is a florist and SIL was ordering flowers for a funeral) and she told the neighbor that they (brother and SIL) pay me to care for my Dad and that I don't take good care of him so she is going to move him to where they live and put him in a nursing home since I just cash in while he suffers. The neighbor luckily knows SIL is a nut but she still called me to ask me to never lever SIL get her hands on Dad.

BTW, no one pays me to care for my Dad. I get no money for it and in fact it costs me money in gas and in time because I can't work because I never know when Dad will need me. Burns me up to think she has told people who know me that she pays me to do it!

She lies about everything. Did I tell the one where she told people where her daughter attended school that she and my brother bought the Giant Pandas at the National Zoo in D.C. from China and donated them to the zoo? Or that she was Miss TN years ago? Those are just a few of the millions of lies she tells. Nut job I tell you!!!! Hehe, hubby wanted to get her a stuffed panda with a Miss Tennessee banner across it for Christmas that year.

Nice to know that evil doesn't just hang out in one spot.

Ugh. I have to laugh.

I am not going to go into details. but it really sucks when it comes to money.

You can tell the level of a-holery goes up when dead presidents come into the picture.

People use money to try and control the situation. When all is said and done you will sleep the sleep of the innocent.

I has a convo with my other brother and he told me that he sleeps with no problems and often dreams of my dad.

My dad is there to remind him to keep going.

We laughed because he said that he had no problems with that.

After, he asked me if I was relaxed.

YEP,
We have to be. When the poop happens we have to be the foundation for whatever happens. Otherwise our incompetent, lazy, fabricating, lost relatives won't have anyone to tell them where to meet or what to do.

I have to laugh.

I have a dream about my Mom every single morning right before I wake up. The dream is always different but she's there and sometimes I acknowledge that she's been gone for four years and sometimes it's like she's never been gone. This has been happening for the past few weeks. Maybe she's reminding me to keep going. I hadn't thought of it like that. Thanks.

How can your mom ever leave if you have her in your heart?
