Just Pass Me By

Where’s my pillow, I brought them in, they should be in your bedroom. I thought you told me you slept better yesterday having your 3 pillows. Dad asked for his pillows, not pills so I got a little confused as to what he was needing because he had all but one pillow in here, and the other one in the van frozen shut. I did check dad’s room in case they fall on the floor and he couldn’t find his pillows.

Later I told dad when we go to my doctor appointment you will need to bundle up. He said okay, and asked where his PILLS were, his pillows. Oh your meds Pills not Pillows. We had a good laugh at that one. At least we are laughing today and not wanting to hurt someone.

I am so tired of my sister in law disrespect of her dad it sad. She now trying to use her children to manipulate my husband, dad and I. I will not be manipulated by her, if she wanted to see dad she should have respect for him.  The other day dad decided he wasn’t going there, after I encouraged him to see the kids, and get them presents since he could offord it. It’s amazing how I become the evil sister in law, when I am the reason for my husband talking to his sister who he wanted nothing to do with. It’s amazing that when dad wants to throw in the hat, I encourage him not to because she is his daughter and he loves her even though her behavior towards him is crappy.

I have tried very hard to keep the peace in the family. Dad choice on his own to move in with my husband and I.. I told him our home was always open, the first week he lived here he was so tired he just slept. So hmmm Lets see I am evil when he getting feed, sleeping well, and having some fun and has plenty of money lift over for the month for spending after all his bills were paid. Yeah I am horrible that’s right, because I doing the right thing. He will even have money to take a trip down south like he been wanting to probably by march.

I couldn’t help but feel like telling her last night, Actually mom hated you because you always treated them so badly and if mom told you anything it was what she knew you wanted to hear because she was scared of what you might do to her and dad. My sister in law is very ugly and not talking physically and it’s getting hard not to stoop down to her level here, but I will not do that, because telling her mom and dad hate her wouldn’t be right. I know mom and dad both love her, but they are sick of the way she treats them. Dad has had it and I guess I have had it with being kind and patient with her and having her treat me horrible, and her lies are just to much. So I throw in the hat, and give up. I don’t normally quit but sometimes it’s the best action to take and let G-d because He is the only one who can handle her.

We have dad taking his pills everyday almost except when we forget to make sure he took them, for the most dad will ask for them, or take them on his own. When he wasn’t living her he refused, and he’s being feed well. We are trying met his needs. Maybe on my way home from doctor I will stop at the community center and see if I can find out what Senior activities they have for dad to get involved in.
