Ready for this?

I haven't received it yet but I do appreciate being thought of and vibed. THAT'S what that was. I thought the tinniutus was coming back full force. :) I am alive and kicking and may be a bit of a hypochondriac? I thought I was getting the 'flu, which is going around and felling neighbors right and left. My glands remain unswollen and no fever has heated my brow. I felt terrible and then fine and then terrible; now I am not so sure. My oldest daughter, who has finals this week, is outright sick. But I feel fine-ish today. It could be my much loved mesquite tree and all that yellow pollen floating around or, as I said, hypochondria.

Here's my vent and I wish I could offer a response as light-heartedly as your search for me has been but there's ugliness brewing between myself and a few of my sisters, who are bad daughters and morally bankrupt women, stealing my mother's golden days as well as her money and I am furious and must get in touch with my other siblings to put an end to what amounts to elder abuse. I feel heartsick about that but it's going to end and soon because it's gone on too long and my dear mother just can't deal with them and her refusal to take action is understandable; they are her children, but it's within the power other children to intervene and protect her. She hates conflict but this is beyond the pale. You wouldn't believe some of the things that have been going on with my mother, who's whole life has been about sacrifice and love and these stupid people are using her, manipulating her and justifying it in their twisted minds. I sent her money for mother's day and it's been stolen and that's just one of many infractions that are coming to light and I am appalled and disgusted and very sad that my mom should be treated so badly by her children.

So, the road trip is not in the cards this summer. I have a child in summer school, a trip to the north rim of the Grand Canyon if I can schedule it in and I will be getting ready for the youngest kids to go to art school on July 18. I am having an unexpected two week visit from my great neice, who lives in Las Vegas, has fallen in with an older and wild crowd, and needs rescuing fast. She lives with her grandmother, my ex-sister-in-law. Her father, my nephew, committed suicide when she was a baby and her mother gave her up to her grandmother, but not before she suffered abuse and molestation. Do you think it was a mistake to complain that my life was too boring and domesticated as I recently did? My head is spinning. As Woody Allen would say, I could use a valium the size of a hockey puck. Have I wandered into an insane drama?

If I can, by some miracle, swing it, I'll be there, but a short stint on a psyche ward seems more likely. :D I have to go buy shampoo and a number of other very ordinary tasks while my head whirls, trying to figure all of this out.

How are you guys doing today? I have to go check into the unclean eating thread since I opted for a peanut butter cookie for breakfast. As Shelley would say: BLARGH!

RE: Ready for this?

Sorry you're going through difficult times again Bobbi! We miss hearing from you.
 
RE: Ready for this?

Hi Bobbi

I visit here often, you've probably seen my name here & there. I know you're not familiar with me as you are with Shelley, Jes & others. But I just want you to know that I HONESTLY feel for you. I know what it's like with siblings turning towards their parents. I have 10 sisters, 1 brother, my father passed away some yrs. ago & my mother is now 70. A few of my sisters treat her like dirt. To make a looooooong story short, my mother has been living in her house for 13 yrs or more and one of my sisters (A DEMON with her demon daughter) moved in about 5 yrs ago, doing her a favor. Well my mother helped that particular DEMON buy a car (brand new)and my mother was NEVER allowed to sit in the front seat of the car. Boy did I want to smash that car and that DEMON sister of mine. My mother let that DEMON stay in the back room of her apt. and b/c my mother & DEMON sister had a talk about the car & the $$$, my sister deliberately stopped paying my mother rent, stop taking out the trash, completely cut her off and dared my mother to put her out and continued to live there. A HUGH BRAWL BROKE OUT where my older sister was going to LITERALLY WAX THAT ROTTEN DEMON'S A##. Cops had to be called and my older sister was told if she had laid a hand on her she would have been put in jail. My older sister couldn't afford to go to jail b/c she has a handicap husband. But what was funny, the demon sister was the one who called the cops, and when the story was told "correctly", the DEMON thought the cops were going to squash the whole thing, but it turned out the DEMON was SCREAMED on by the cops.

The above is the condensed version of the particular incident. 12 children, there's a WHOLE LOT OF STUPIDITY GOING ON. It seems everyone has formed their own little clique......STUPID.

But I know where you're coming from. {{{{{PRAYERS TO YOU TO REMAIN STRONG}}}}}}

RE: Ready for this?

Hi, Haydee. I know who you are. :) DEMON is exactly the right word to describe The Evil One. I feel like waxing her rear and wiping the floor with her and her son, drug addict in jail for 30 days, thank God! My mother can have a little peace.

Gloria has lived with my mother for 19 years, no room and board, had car payments she couldn't make paid for her and, in spite of the generosity bestowed upon her, used credit cards that had my mother's name on them, stolen, and generally proven herself a demon seed from the get go. She started this as a teen. She's always gotten away with it.

Get this, The Evil One buys the food. That's her contribution. Well, she did before she lost her job. That would explain why my always tiny mother must weighs all of 85 pounds these days. And she does yard work. we must not forget the yard work.

I think it's time to ruffle my mother's feathers to protect her because she raised 13 children with tremendous sacrifice and endured so much and deserves to be cherished, not abused. It's go time and my mother needs to be liberated, empowered and the DEMON needs to be exorcised! If the rest of us allow the morons to continue, we have to take responsibility for when our mother fails. She's getting more and more frail. She takes to her bed; she can't speak out in her own home because of Gloria's dark presence. My sister is bitter and moody and we all tiptoe around her but I sit here trying to figure out why. She's nothing but a pathetic woman who has screwed up her life. I could wipe the floor with her easily if I were so inclined. Imagine never having to pay bills, any, and to manage to put your mother and her pristine credit into the hole by thousands of dollars. WHY HAVE WE WAITED? I don't care if we create a terrible scandal. My mother wouldn't want anyone to know all this crap, well boo hoo. Just kidding. I adore my mother but to the best of my ability, I will try not to upset her, but we have got to get them out of her house.


The other two are pretty petty criminals compared to the demon but it's time to let them sink if they can't swim. A dollar says they'd figure out how to swim. Rats swim, after all. I have bounced off the walls all day. Thank you for your prayers. I am going to need them and I am going to galvanize my siblings who feel as I do into acting out because the time for talking among ourselves and not doing anything is past. It's times like these I wish I lived closer to my mother but then I would have to live near demons and other evil creatures and I shudder at the thought. They have no integrity, no honesty, no morals or scruples and my mother embodies those qualities and so many other good ones. I am at a loss. How does a saint give birth to a demon? :D

RE: Ready for this?

Bobbi, please get together with your other siblings & stand up for your mom & to your mom. Unfortunately, I get to see some share of elder abuse with my patients & it's horrifying. Just as you said, this is a time where they need to sit back & enjoy their memories, their remaining time & their families to the fullest extent.

So, instead of focusing all my energy on you getting to the road trip this year, I will direct some of that energy towards good wishes for your sweet, deserving mom.

RE: Ready for this?

Thank you, Marla. It's my number one priority now. I am writing to each of my sibs who feel the same and we are going to formulate a plan. I think we need only show that we have the power to extricate beautiful mother from this situation to get my sister out. And if it takes more, so be it.

On the bright side, my sister Melody, the only other one who lives out here in the Southwest, spends the whole summer at my mom's house and she's going back there, taking names and kicking booty. My mother will be safe for the summer and that's plenty of time to do the work to change this once and for all.

I had a long talk with my neice last night and she had me laughing and feeling much calmer in no time. I should have called her in the morning! ;) I will take your energy and use it well. :) This has been a long time coming. I have talked to my mother a lot the past few days. When the she-demon was out of the house, she had music blasting and she was cleaning in preparation for my sister's arrival. Alone, she was able to tell me things I didn't like to hear. I heard Tammy Wynette singing her sad tales of woe in the background. :) Took me back a few million years. We need to put our heads together and this time, no one, not even my mother, is stopping us. The abusers are most frequently the children as I am sure you know. In some twisted way, my sister feels entitled and may even believe she has taken care of my mother. She's made poor choices and she's now 44, dependant and abusive. I could feel sorry for her if I wasn't angry and sad but we have all made poor choices at times. The difference is changing the things that aren't working and making life better. My loyalty is to my mother, that honorable lady. I think in her heart she wants us to act on her behalf and now we must. By the end of the summer, I am flying back and we are facing off with these women and putting this to an end.

The road trip came up so quickly! This summer is all about getting Ali to Germany. Thank heaven's I really didn't need to give up an arm and a leg. I'd look funny kickboxing or trying to step with one arm and one leg! I can imagine doing arm work but squats? ;) I have a dentist appointment today but otherwise I am chilling, cleaning and not being insane today. Sam has soccer practice too. Three practices, two games and we'll kick off the official "it's summer and we are all going to relax and take it easy. Or else!"

All thoughts, prayer and vibes are welcome! I love you guys so much!
