Venting

 So...everyone gets a little upset with their siblings once in a while.  I've always considered my sister to have a huge heart, a gift for helping those less fortunate than her, to be a very giving and understanding person...as long as you're not related to her.  She suddenly at age 34 woke up one morning and decided she's psychic, doesn't want to

sorry that family can be so cruel sometimes...most of the time i tend to believe that we shouldnt even be allowed to have friends until we can treat our family half-way decently....and i know alot of people would yell but you dont know my family and maybe sometimes they are right but still and all....friends can come and go but for most of us who will always be there... only some family members didnt get the memo apparently and think they can just treat their family like trash and come crying when they need something and most of the time it is true because the opposite of love is apathy not hate or hurt or frustration those are for those who Do care and will, even though sometimes grudgingly, be there when they need something or are hurt or alone ....fortunately or unfortunately, i dont know, there is no tit-for-tat with those we love.....i dont know, i once heard it isnt about who loves you but who you love that says more about you and maybe they are right :-) Much Love

Your sister has a beautiful soul and you know it. She's quirky, and just especially so right now. Just sit back and watch the events unfold for her. She may be dissatisfied with some aspect of her life that leads her to explore odd subjects or trends. It sounds like she's still discovering herself (as we all are to some extent

Yes, my sister does have a beautiful soul. I love her very much. I'll admit that a good portion is hurt over being excluded. But it's also the attempts I make to spend time with her and to have something that we can talk about together that go completely unnoticed.

That's really shitty about your family's trip to Ecuador. I don't want to get into the contest on who has the most inconsiderate family but there are lots of examples I could post. And she did, btw, cancel. I got a text msg from her this morning.

I really laughed about the part of her being Cleo and Casey rolled into one. I love how you describe people, things, and events. I am sorry she actually canceled. Have you tried bringing this up with her point blank? I try to use the Four Agreements when I remember to. My 2 favorites: Don't make assumptions (ask questions/get clarification) and don't take ANYTHING personally (not the bad, nor the good). This helps me alot!

Meh, I'm over it now. She sent me a txt msg today saying she was sick and that's fine. I have said things to her from time to time, asking her or calling her out on her bs and she just denies everything, tells anyone who will listen how horrible I was to her and gives them a skewed version of the events. I don't even bother anymore unless she really crosses the line. The truth is we have family in common and not much else...at least right now.

Some people just naturally tend towards flaky. Sit back and enjoy the ride - it's not likely to last much longer than any other fad, and certainly will provide some entertainment if you can get past the jealousy and annoyance aspect. If it makes her feel special, which is obviously something she needs, and isn't hurting anyone, *shrug*, well, so be it.

So, wanna come hang out up here on Saturday if you aren't bar-hopping with the teeny-boppers and wanna-be-teeny-boppers? *grin*
