Time for my monthly rant and vent

[Guest guest]

I called my sister to see if she would keep my mother company Friday night

so I could go see my daughter perform in a college production. She emailed

me and told me that as a family, they are trying to keep Friday night clear

to spend with cousins coming in from out of state for a funeral on Thursday.

Then I called my brother-in-law (her husband) to ask him to give us a few

hours on Saturday morning to help move Mom's furniture. My sister text

messaged me to tell me that he won't be available because he's had a rough

week with his cousin's funeral and everything.

Well, I'm very sympathetic to his loss, but........... When I have a rough

week I don't have the option of taking a morning off. I have to suck it up

and keep moving. Also, I think I'm really upset because, as I vented last

month, if it wasn't this it would be something else.

Have you folks noticed that caregivers are the type of people who take care

of their LO first and then fit in whatever life they can around it. The

rest of the family lives their lives to the fullest and squeezes in the LO

whenever they have a few minutes with nothing better to do.

Aaaaargh.........

Okay, done venting, off my pity wagon, gotta get movin' got lots to do

before the move!

Love you all!
