i think it's getting ready to go down at work. i'm almost afraid to talk about it since special ed is confidential., and i don't need legal trouble on top of all this shit. so let's just say that an upset caretaker may try to point the blame at the school...specifically at the classroom. it's totally ridiculous, but i'm nervous. this is my first encounter like this. let's say carol (or someone in her family) took a baseball bat to their car. the car's pretty messed up, so they take it to a mechanic. the mechanic asks a lot of questions about what happened to the car, and carol starts to get mad. she insists the car came like that. the mechanic does her best to fix the car, help it run, make it functional. but the mechanic keeps asking questions, then decides to call AAA because there seems to be more to the problem. carol gets really mad, and decides to get a representative from the dealership to blame the mechanic for the car's problems. carol says the car doesn't have problems at home, only at the mechanic's shop. it's a bunch of bullshit, and i'm worried about the longterm effects. it's the car that will suffer in the long run, no matter how it turns out. and this car needs all the help it can get.
and it further shit news...my cousin is in some kind of "legal" trouble because of my 90 yr old grandma w/alzheimers! grandma doesn't have a "valid" id, so my cousin writes her own DL# on checks for prescriptions. once grandma wrote a hot check. it was no big deal, we just had to transfer funds from savings to checking. so the collection agency sent a letter. no big deal. it's not the first time any of us have seen one of those. but i forgot to take care of it. somehow that turned into a warrant for my cousin's arrest!!! actually, we were able to go online and pay it about 6 hours before it turned into a warrant. but i just got a message that my cousin still needs an attorney for some reason. and i know it's my fault because i neglected to take care of it, but it makes me mad at my mom because SHE's the one that should be taking care of this shit. i'm trying to take care of ella, paul, and myself. she has no one to take care of but herself. and she won't take responsibility for any of this. now i'm worried that my cousin will have a huge legal bill for some shit. i know grandma can pay it, but it shouldn't have even been an issue. OH! and my mom got some certifiied letter from the county attorney, but never mentioned that my cousin could go to jail for this. she acted like it was a collection notice. ugh.
