This way you can enjoy them.<br /><br />I do however understand if they are jealous of you getting a lot of stuff and them not. That's how it was with my sister, mum and I. Mum gave her what ever she wanted. It was quite obvious to everyone. That hurt, alot. I tried not to let it bother me, but I wasn't very successful.Shirley(NCC-1701)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17498486227100348261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4451602020663846531.post-79437681611732783902011-11-11T21:20:51.365-05:002011-11-11T21:20:51.365-05:00Just a quick fly by as I am at Sharon's.

My younger sister has more money than God ...J/L...<br /><br />My younger sister has more money than God and my older sister has driven a new corvette every couple of years for as long as I care to remember...<br /><br />One of the huge fundamental differences between me and my sisters is that I am generous and would give anything to anyone if it made them happy or helped them.<br /><br />Janet and Vicki would let the illegal immigrants baby die in the ER entrance before any free treatment. They would let the patient with no health insurance die. They suggested placing Mother in a nursing home during the last year of her life. Mother never knew that...but I know it... and that speaks volumes about their priorities. Why should she remain in a private hospital at $300,000 a month when she can go to some run down nursing home? <br />When my younger sister and I were still speaking I mentioned that her Mother in law (94 years old) would probably at some point move into assisted living. She looked at me like I was crazy and said..."SHE CAN'T AFFORD IT"...<br /><br />My sisters are dyed in the wool republicans who are obsessed with money.<br /><br />I always have said that I'm the only poor person in my family...but I'm not poor. Not by a long shot.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07107347362105897590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4451602020663846531.post-31220167312676911532011-11-11T17:55:42.118-05:002011-11-11T17:55:42.118-05:00Michael~ what you don't understand is, I love ...Michael~ what you don't understand is, I love listening to stories about you and your mother~ It's just a bonus to hear about ur horrid sisters~ I've always told my husband that when his parents or my parents are gone, we can't care who they give what to. I've told my mom that if she gives the house to my brother, I wouldn't care....it's hers to do with as she will and not my business~ Our parents have helped us and given us a ton and have been great grandparents to our kids. What more could we want.

Not all of us are. They may have always felt they are not good enough and are now taking it out on you. Too bad, really, that your dad had to cause this rift. As for your mom, parents really shouldn't play favorites, at least not to the extreme. It's understandable that one child may be more in tune with the parent but when it comes to monetary and material things, parents should try to be fair, imho.Just_Linhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06413535500016790460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4451602020663846531.post-13975003859521309662011-11-11T17:12:53.216-05:002011-11-11T17:12:53.216-05:00Thanks everyone....Tina knows the situation pretty...Thanks everyone....Tina knows the situation pretty well. I never knew until Mother was gone that my sisters were jealous of mine and Mothers relationship...<br /><br />My Dad told them things that he never should have but hurting people was his favorite thing to do I think.<br /><br />I had no idea they felt this way because I was always doing my thing and wasn't paying them any attention...I don't think they did feel this way til Mother was gone and my Father spilled so many beans....<br /><br />My sisters and I were very close up until then....<br /><br />The thing is ....my Mother and Father literally heaped money on me as a grown man.Always. And my Father continued after Mother died. I would return from a fabulous trip and Mother would ask how much it cost...then she would pay for it!!<br /><br />Cars...stock....after about 35 years it amounted to a great deal of money.<br /><br />My sisters basically never got this treatment...and didn't know I was getting it....<br /><br />Hell I always lived far away...I didn't know what their personal business was...didn't care...<br /><br />but now they blame me...<br /><br />I can see how they might have hurt feelings....but they have never done without anything...quite the opposite as a matter of fact.<br /><br />I know I was favored...especially by Mother....we were two peas in a pod...<br /><br />For example....once on Mothers birthday I had flown home and given her an Hermes Kelly Bag...she loved them. While I was there...my sisters came with their gifts....the older one had brought Mother a fake Dooney & Burke purse...and the other had brought her a herringbone bracelet that she had won in some contest in their stores. I think she won 10 of them...it was such crap that it wouldn't even lie flat on Mothers wrist...<br /><br />I could go on and on...but I have wasted too much of your time and mine on those red-devils.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07107347362105897590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4451602020663846531.post-34329381339524794212011-11-11T17:05:34.990-05:002011-11-11T17:05:34.990-05:00Tina You are such a good daughter.

I kept it...and will always keep it. I'll probably even end up scrapbooking it.
