Parenting after 35

Back from visiting the Passive Aggressive Sibling

Oh.. what a fun weekend!  

Drove 14 hours straight (both ways) to Phoenix over the holiday weekend to pick up some stuff she was giving to C--a big train table, toys etc.  Took my mom along as well.

We were pretty much ready to leave the minute we got there.  'Nuff said.

My sister needs some serious medication to control her mood swings.

  • Yeah, for being "free" stuff, they come with a price.  For the next 20 years I will be hearing about how she gave me all this stuff.

    Called her for literally :30 last night to say "We're home and we're pretty tired and going to bed."  Her response was, "Oh.. my kids are super tired today too.  They did XX and XX and XX today."   Why does something as simple as that statement need a One-Upper????!

    Yeah, seems like nothing in life comes for free...

    A big train table can be worth it's weight in gold for how long it can entertain a two year old.  Just don't share that with your sister.

    Yeah... it was worth getting and enduring the three-day visit just to see the niece and nephew.
