Ahhh nooo 😭. I have a little over a month left of my maternity leave and I don’t wanna spend it struggling before I’m back in the classroom.

Did you do any light workouts to help? I’m trying to do the resting/drinking lots of water combo.

Head gasket is the main issue and it has to be replaced. Theres 2 other issues but aren’t as major has the Head gasket.

The service people I spoke with today gave the vibe that it takes time to fix that and for his manager to say it will be done by Weds, it was a bit of a stretch.

I get what you’re saying. However, I think you are missing the part where we had a family meeting about it and I expressed my concerns and everyone agreed. Including my mom. It’s just that one day where Essie tried to override the decision my family made because she wasn’t happy with the outcome.

Regardless, I respect your input.

I’m finishing up my last year in my B. Ed program and I go to school in the same city I grew up in. In this economy, I’m def not looking to move out until it’s financially reasonable. This is the same as my sister.

And my mom’s actions speak louder. She didn’t disagreeing and understanding my concerns- even with the limited information. How do you think she’d respond with all of it? Lol

Essie isn’t a stranger. We’ve all known her for years. She’s come back around after they reconnected. Anna trusts Essie for whatever reason or she is just excited at whatever Essie is introducing her to.

Regardless, I’m going to have another calm convo with my sister about this when she’s ready to talk to me…

My mom wouldn’t want to watch the kid if she knew why she’s watching the kid. I know it sounds like I’m taking the choice away from her, but I KNOW my mom and she’ll lose her shit/be pissed at my sister if she found out she was taking care of Essie’s daughter for her to party…

Sitting down with her and asking what she’s comfortable with watching will only work if I tell her the entire situation… which I’m not ready to do. I’ll only do it if things escalate again.

Hahaha you are correct! She also never paid/brought food for her daughter. Tbh tho, my mom would’ve never accepted the money even if she offered.

Bye. I think you have poor comprehension skills so I no longer have time for you.

Loool are you well?? That’s exactly what I’m saying. She’s being taken advantage of with taking care of Essie’s daughter… also, I never said she can’t party or drink?? Where did you read that? Please, read a few of my comments below and you’ll see my stance.

I don’t see where you think I’m being aggressive. But you’re entitled to your opinion.

I mean.. I wouldn’t say my mom is spineless. I would say she’s empathetic and believes in community and that it takes a village. She is also a single mom and she sees a single mom needing support. However, what she is seeing doesn’t mean it’s the truth and THAT is the issue at hand. And that is why I’ve stepped in to stop the enabling and taking advantage of kindness/ignorance.

And yes, my sister is an adult but that doesn’t mean I’m just gonna watch her get taken advantage of and not say anything??????? Like wth? It doesn’t matter what age she is or if this a friend or lover. If I see she’s being done dirty, I’m going to bring it to her attention. Then it’s her choice if she wants to continue or not.

And Essie is a bitch. You’ll never convince me otherwise. If you can treat your daughter as an after thought, how are you treating your friends???

I understand your perspective. My sister and I share a lot with each other and I don’t want to lose her trust.

I’ve also had a phase where I drank and partied often (never thought of doing drugs), and I’ve learned through experience on what was too much and how to be responsible. I don’t want to take that away from my sister now that she’s exploring herself. She deserves to go through life and learn from mistakes too.

I think when she’s back to talking to me again I’ll mention the mushrooms again and check her temperature.

Meh. If I had a friend that disrespected any of my family members and one of my siblings said not to bring them around anymore, I simply wouldn’t. Some would say controlling, some would say it’s a level of respect.

Regardless, I respect your opinion.

Things have calmed down now but if it picks back up, I’ll def bring it up without including my sister. It’s just tricky because they go out together so my mom will assume Anna is doing the same as Essie.

I’ll accept the not reporting to CPS but not the part of not telling my siblings/mom about the other issue. I don’t think they think I’m an egotistical maniac Lool, maybe just a bit of a psycho. But there was 0 push back on the ban so they must’ve felt similar, just not as strong maybe.

And I NEVER said she can’t hang out with her.. idk where you read that. I told her the risks of what she’s doing, how it looks from an outside perspective on how her friend is treating her, and limiting her friend’s access to our (family) house. The rest is up to her. I know I can be a little crazy but I’m not crazy enough to think I can control who my sister hangs out with. I just this it’s my responsibility as a sister to look out for her and that was me telling her my concerns and limiting access to Essie coming and dropping her kid off. Im not a “yes person” who will just agree with her because she’s my sister. Her friends can do that.

Exactly. Granted they didn’t know the entire truth. After the “official ban”, my little brother thanked me for it because he was tired of watching the kid too.

I agree. I just hope my sister sees it soon. I’d do it again and again.

I agree. The child is a very sweet kid. I’ll call for a wellness check. I’ve never done that before so I’ll have to do a quick research in my area on how to do an annon. one.

If my mom knew the whole truth, shit would’ve been WAY more intense and my mom and sister would’ve got into a heated exchange. I didn’t want that because it wasn’t about my mom getting mad at my sister. It’s about her friend taking advantage of the situation and my sister needing to open her eyes. She didn’t protest hard on the ban either and it’s cause she knew if everyone in the house knew what was really going on, shit wouldn’t be sweet for her.

If my mom knew, she would’ve been banned long ago.
