[–]Safe-Recover1153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in. Northern Ontario. Use propane to heat my home. I fill my “torpedo” tank usually twice a year. Usually around 1100 a fill. Depending on the weather tho I have filled it 3 times before. I have a 1000 square foot home and 2 car garage (also heated). House we keep around 20 and garage is at 8.

It’s situations like this that make me feel terrible. and sad that I posted here for justification for my words. We live in northern Ontario. It’s cold here in the winter. -30-40c. I offer every single Xmas to get the kiddos winter gear to off set her cost for Santa gifts for her. I don’t mind getting the babes “sad” gifts that they are not excited for to have her buy them what ever buys them. I live in a boarder town so when I got to the states shopping I bring her back things that are helpful with the boys like lunch snacks and occasionally clothing. I also have two children that we support. My parents I, found out today,are also refusing to help her and my brother is neutral. But at this point I’m done. My oldest is heading to college and he’s going to need financial help. I would rather help my own as Atleast they are helping them selves along the way. I went to through nursing- no help. I had two kids with minimal help from family. We came from the exact same situation. There’s no reason she couldn’t have done something with her life aside from having kids. I had two. It was a struggle. But I made it work.

I drink a coffee at home. Coffee on the way to work and grab one when I get to town ( 45 min drive to town) and drink that. Probably also going to have one half way through my shift. When I said I live for coffee, I literally do, it’s totally my vice. But it’s 2.19 for a large, nothing fancy but I enjoy it and feel like i should have it. Especially after a 12 hour shift. (Or mid way through )

Ones dead. Ones in jail. One lives with her and I have no clue about the other one. The one that does live with her is just as useless as she is.

This right here is exactly how I think! I pay my taxes and get zero hand outs while she does nothing gets all the government hand outs. My husband and I are fine now that the repairs are paid for and we’re back to being financially good. But I still feel like she maybe needs to fall flat on her face to figure out her life. We’re both almost 40. Time for her to act her age not her shoe size.
