[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 108362, member: 2211"] Fran, you are correct - at least someone (or 3) is there for mom's interview with the state. I do realize that that is the most important focus in this situation. The plan was for me and loco sister to go together and we were going to split one night at a hotel - $25/each since we only needed to be there for today. As I said, I was on the fence about meeting with the state appointment because of my mom's cat as the interview took place in her apt. But I had stated very firmly that I wanted to be there for the DR visit, which may even be a moot point now as no one has yet to confirm that there is even a DR appointment in place for today. I'm not angry so much because they are there and I'm not. I'm angry because my loco sister does this to me all the time. She seems to take perverse pleasure in making others look stupid or uncaring. I am more than just annoyed because this happens every single solitary time that loco sister is involved and every single solitary time that my siblings have to do anything in an organized and judicial fashion. If it's a party, everything is great but if it's something really important then everything goes to he// in a handbasket. Stupid me, duped again. I should have just changed our close date at work for tomorrow and made the travel plans without loco sister and went by myself on my own schedule, without her. Then, oh boy, would the you know what have hit the fan. But I don't do things like that - I called her to see where we were at, etc., and she never called me back. Can you see how mean that is? Furthermore, my loco sister JUST called her H, my brother in law/boss, on his cell and made him close his door so that I couldn't overhear the conversation. Not like I was sitting on the edge of my seat listening anyway and not that my office is anywhere near his My office is on the opposite end of the building and I only overheard her because I happened to be standing at the copier which is just outside his office and she screams when she talks. You're totally correct, this shouldn't be about sibling crud and I won't allow it to become about that. I'm just letting off some steam. Ultimately I love my mom and want her to have the services she needs in place. And I do trust my sisters to make sure she gets at least some help. I've already been detaching from loco sister for a while now, so that part of it won't be such a bother. However, I do feel that I am entitled to vent in a safe place to friends and family outside of my family about it and well, here I am. If I don't vent about it, I will hold it in and that's not healthy either. [/QUOTE]
