Ok, so now it's my turn to rant. I have tried to hold it in, but you guys will listen to me.
My sister, bless her heart, is nothing but petty and cold! A little background here - my parents and my family moved here to Florida from Georgia 20+ years ago, leaving my sister and her family behind in Georgia. Last year my parents moved back up there because Florida is getting too expensive. Ever since, my sister has complained about them. "They have too many towels, no one needs more than two towels each." They have four little dogs - "They have no business having dogs. That's just something I will have to take care of when they die." The complaints go on and on. OMG!!!!!
Now, my sister just celebrated the birth of her first grandson a few days ago. My parents were included and got to hold the baby. Now the latest phone call was "You would have thought they were in pain - they couldn't even come up with a smile between them," as well as many other complaints. More background - my son died at the age of 19 a few years ago. He was their last grandson and they were very close. I know exactly what was going through their minds and memories when they held their new great-grandson. Of course they are proud of him, but they had to have been remembering their own grandson who was taken from them/us. My sister's answer was "won't they ever move on?" I would have probably been crying uncontrollably on the little tyke if I had been there!
My parents have been so unhappy since they moved up there. My sister has no compassion for them, only complaints. I so wish I could bring them back down here to live out their lives, but we have no money right now (hubby on very extended lay-off).
Please place my parents on your prayer list. They are in their 80s and deserve a happy ending, hopefully many more years from now!
