My Week

and what a week

I had grandson everyday from Sunday to yesterday. He does take a good deal of my time and thoughts.

And then the drama started again at my Moms house-brother told her that he comes up here 2 and 3 times a week and I tell you I have not seen him since right around Christmas.   What was he trying to do .  Just to tell such a lie to her is beyand belief and it hit me wrong and I called her and told her that he lied to her, Isaid he seves his master and that she should not belief anything that comes out of his mouth.  He came in to her house while I was talking and got mad cause I had said that and he jumped in his car (drunk of course)and headed this way.  I am so tired of him just saying things to cause problems.  Mom is not easy to get along with but she is 85 and that is her house that he stays in,.  and he pays absolutely nothing to stay there.  Does not even buy the food he eats.  The only reason he said that was just to stir up problems.  Remember he told her that I had put his and her names all over the computer and had her upset .  I kept telling her I did not do it. but he was standing beside her telling her how I did it.  He told her that I don't visit there and it was her fault becasue he and I hav e a good relationship.  WHAT A LIAR----I am tired of the drama, and the lies and the way he tries to keep everything stirred up all the time .

I have stayed withing reason on my diet and have dropped about 1 and 1/2 pounds.  I have not exercised any this week, I have b een having some allergy problems andit has sapped my energy. But today I felt better, (still did not exercise :) and tomorrow I go back to work.  I really enjoyed it and am looking forward to going tomorrow.

  1. You know, Joy, my dil is a liar like that. She just bold-faced lies and people find it hard NOT to believe her, because who would outright lie like that?

    So frustrating. I am doing what you have done. I simply refuse to hold hands with the deceit any longer by not saying anything. Sometimes I feel like I'm being petty, but that's how they wreak havoc in lives--we just let it go. No more.

    Well. I'll spare your blog the rant. Just know that I understand the frustration. Isn't it ironic that your brother got angry with YOU simply because you told the truth?

    Of late, I've found a number of referernce to people and their practice of deceit in several of the Psalms at the beginning of the book (I'm to Psalm 30).

    I've been finding them encouraging as I read that I will be rescued from those who practice deceit.

    Hang tough, girlfriend.

  2. You serve your master, too, Joy, and I'm glad it's the Lord! I pray God helps your family, and give you (and Deb) the patience to love and forgive these people. I pray the same for myself. I struggle, big time, with letting go when it comes to family drama.

    But I know you're glad you keep the grandson so close in thought and time! And I'm glad you're able to model the kind of life for him that a young child needs. Love you, and God bless!
