My older sister fell last year in a beauty store. She got 14k in a settlement. She spent 350 on a tv, 300 something on a hotel room for the mans he's been chatting up on the phone since February, and God knows how much on flying him out here.

She sent 700 through Wal-Mart, and an unknown amount through another money center, to this man. He didn't come until a week after he was supposed to, and she had to rent another hotel room for another two or three weeks. In that time, she took him shopping, to the eye doctor, and ate out at restaurants every chance she got. Then she bought a car, for 6000 dollars. They went out to Galveston for fun, instead of visiting family in Louisiana like we were supposed to for January, then Easter.

My mom asked her where her cut was, since she's been paying for the various things my sister has wanted, or taken, for the past few years since she lost her job with the school district several years ago. She told my mom that 'she needed to take care of herself first' then told her she had less than 500 left. THEN she drives up to North Carolina, and tells my mom she won't be back for 2 weeks. Then that turned into 6 months.

I tried to find out some information from this man, but he's not going to pass up the opportunity for all the freebies he can get. Told me if I have any questions, I needed to ask her, and if she didn't answer, it wasn't his problem. He's just 'riding with his lady.'

No, really. I'm so disgusted and angry with her, but she's told me more than once that my opinion doesn't matter, she doesn't care what I think or how I feel, and any problem I have with what she does, is on me.

And as for my completely random stupid moment. Let's just say my heart took a journey in my dreams, and leave it at that. Pfft!
