• Mon, 20:53: I was given enough fresh lychees to fill a HUGE coffee mug this morning. Today's meditative act? Peeling and seeding before devouring. Yum!
• Mon, 21:17: Wait a minute. @thedivalea - you know @thatwordgrrl, right? If not, that needs fixing.
• Mon, 21:17: RT @loudmouthdad: 5 people will decide if over 5,000,000 children will have healthcare tomorrow.
• Mon, 21:26: Today brought to you by Calling ALL THE THINGS and arguing with them with less than three hours sleep onboard. Plus factory reset on phone.
• Mon, 21:27: All those lovely text message records gone, goodbye. So now, I have no credibility. I have no proof anymore. 9_9
• Mon, 21:28: Told Mom I got stood up and her response was to chew me out for being angry. No, really. I'm a terrible, awful person to that wounded dove.
• Mon, 21:30: Who hasn't talked to anyone else, either. But I couldn't know! I can't read minds, after all. She's not saying anything! #Sis
• Mon, 21:32: MA, SHE STOOD ME UP ON HER OWN DATE WHAT. She could have killed someone, and it would just be a bad hair day. That's how this song goes.
• Mon, 21:33: And then she wonders how I developed this thing about being second-best. I dunno, it just happened. Swamp gas, Ma. Swamp gas. #cantkillem
• Mon, 21:35: Today, I'm getting medical crap sorted (HMO referrals, oh joy) and she complains about how long it takes. 'How much are you getting paid?'

• Mon, 21:36: Well, Ma. It's like this. I don't get money. I get the satisfaction shit's taken care of. Because I said I would. And like that. #family
• Mon, 21:38: Money. The likes of me don't get money. I need to stop thinking about this crap. It's like killing yourself, expecting the other guy to die.
• Mon, 21:41: And I shoulda drank that scotch earlier. Watching the last episode of Korra at 3:00 AM with Suntory? Recommended! But at 10 PM, better.
• Mon, 22:17: RT @cr0sstheline: Cross the line if you always say: "I'm fine" but not cause you are but cause you have to many problems & you don't ...

Oh, FFS!

Good on you for not walking away from Ma and letting Sis deal with it (because you know she won't). But it sucks being the Prodigal Son's sibling (do not ask me how I know this) and I am angry and sad on your behalf.

Oh I know the drill, I did 10 years of this....as the relatives slowly fade away mentally it just adds to the challenge. Stay healthy, stay centered, and make sure you find time for yourself.
