When your Nada is a Christmas Ho!

[Guest guest]

She came to town last night... her car is in the shop today (at Dad's expense

although he'll never admit it to me cause he's hoping it's under the 12 month

repair warrenty from last time.)

She told me yesterday that she's " In Love.... REALLY.... " and this man wants to

marry her, move in, whatever... NOW! She doesn't want to get married ( " It will

mess up my SSDI, etc " ) but she will do " Domestic Partners " so she can get on HIS

insurance. Blah, Blah, Blah...

Meanwhile, my dad (her ex: married 10, divorced 15) is still paying her gas

bill, her phone bill and her car insurance. Yes, this is bad... but at least

he's stopped giving her 1-2k a month cash, too. She doesn't want dad to know

about THIS man, because he'd stop funding her at all, '... and I just can't make

it without his assistance.... " She's 63.

She wanted to get me alone this week to tell me (and show me how blissed out her

face is...) all about her " true love " ... I've told her I won't be involved until

she comes clean with dad and stops using him. She, again, got furious. This is

NOT the first time I've said that...

So... once again, I'm sitting here... doing my thing... my teen has a cold, my

ex is long over, a new gentle man is in my world (we knew eachother from 8th -

12th grade and met up again last summer...) and I should be peaceful and

content... but I'm not. There is this horrible shadow of greed, guilt,

manipulation, betrayal, etc. hovering right outside the door.

I want a " pass " on her games, her lies, her drama... why does she keep shoving

this crap down my throat? QUIT LYING TO DAD AND USING HIM AND I'LL BE HAPPY FOR

YOU!!! What's so hard about that?????
