[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 528891, member: 2211"] Star, your post made me crack up...my mom is basically considered indigent at this point...she has no will, no property and no money reserves. All her income goes directly to the nursing home, less $66 for personal expenses, which is basically her hair care. We pay for everything else. Loco sister is not vying for monetary gains (she's got plenty herself), she just wants everyone to think she's pure and wonderful. She sat there and literally said out loud, "I'm grateful" in regards to our mom being at the nursing home and so close. Which in all honesty, I'm glad for that as well, but it just came out of her mouth in such a practiced way. Loco sister is very smart, book smart, and has an extensive vocabulary and when someone is studying something she doesn't know much about, she studies it, learns it until she feels confident that she is the grand authority on the topic. With her own spin, of course. I suppose she could have a touch of Aspie, I personally think most of us do in our own way. My therapist once told me that she had narcissistic personality disorder and, based on my own experiences with her, I agree. I try not to let it get under my skin and most of the time I'm successful. However, there are times when I just can't stand it and it drives me bonkers. She comes across as this self righteous know it all, condescending, judgmental b***h that, grrrrr. Today is a new day, thank God. [/QUOTE]
