Aunt Mary
Last week for the zillionth week in a row I went to my Aunt Mary's. She is completely functional except for being super mean-spirited. She has refused to go to any doctors or take any pills. I cannot force her, so she just does what she wants. Because she has been getting more difficult, I go to her house every week and every week she swears I do not come over. I asked her point blank if she thought I was lying & making it up? She grumbled non-committally. I now make her tell me in person her shopping list. When I get back with her stuff she still has the nerve to fuss and accuse me of forcing her to buy "all this stuff". She is worried that the neighbors will wonder how one little woman can eat so much. I jump on this and say, "It would not be so bad if I did not go EVERY week". All I get is more non-committal grumbling. Then, just a minute later, in another round of crazy she tells me there are too many groceries in her house and that I should not go as often. CUCOO! I wrote out her bills. They were late so she was freaking out. I asked her where the bills had been the last 4 times I had been over? Naturally she did not know what I was talking about. Those bills had just miraculously appeared. She wasn't hiding them...like she has done in the past. I will never understand how one person can go so far to be such a pain :(
