[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 352745, member: 84"] Big reason why I won't do group gifts. My sis decided to buy my Mom this awesome (and expensive sewing machine) for her birthday one year. Mom loved to sew. She loved her old Singer machine. The one sis wanted to get was computerized. (hence the expense) And I kept telling her Mom would probably never figure out how to even use it. AND I told her I didn't have a spare 100 bucks to just toss out for a gift. Five times I told her that. She went ahead and got it anyway. I honestly don't know where my other sibs got the 100 bucks for their shares either because they were also having a rough go of it, but she guilted them into it. Then she started harassing me, telling me I owed her 100 bucks. I told her I owed her nothing because I said from the beginning I didn't have the money and I wasn't interested in buying something for our Mom she would never use. by the way the machine was too complicated and Mom never did get it to run right. She actually hated the gift and wished the money had been used for something more useful. lol Sis was ticked for a while, but she got over it. Witz, my Mom can hold a grudge like no other human being on the planet.......but even she would dare say a member of the family shouldn't come to a reunion or anything like that. Your sis is far beyond petty, my dear. She has some big issues. ((hugs)) I also wonder if she'll reply. [/QUOTE]
