My youngest sister is an idiot. She posted some things to her blog back in December and she decided to share her blog with me. I read what was on her mind and I find that she just doesn't have a clue. She wrote in her blog titled 18 things, #6. I am ashamed of my family. Well, guess what I am ashamed of her! She is such a stuck up little girl. She still has some growing up to do. I used to be proud to claim her as my sister, but recently I have changed my opinion of her and I have to agree with my other sister about some of her opinions on her.
She wrote: 7. I have a major fear that I'm going to end up fat, lonely, ignorant, useless, and ...basically, like most of my family. While, I might be overweight, I have been battling an illness - not imaginary, like hers, but real! One that required surgery, one that found cancer, one that requires I take medication every day for the rest of my life. One that could have caused me to not have children (which I am blessed with three beautiful, smart, young girls). I am not lonely, I have friends, some of my friends I have had for over 25 years! She can't even claim to have had any of hers that long! And, most important I am not ignorant. I have 2 undergraduate college degrees! I came out of school without any college debt! I paid my own way and I made it. She cannot claim the same thing. I seem to recall that our parents paid her college way and even paid for her to go places, places that I could not even dream about going to. Sure I made mistakes, but they were mine to make and learn from! Everyone who LIVES makes mistakes! I am also far from useless. I have been teaching many people how to Knit and crochet. I have been doing this for the past few years. I also used to work with USA Swimming as an official. I worked my way up to starter. Please note, that is something that she hasn't even tried to do.
I am also wanting to go back to school for a graduate degree. I finally accumulated the necessary three letters so that I could apply. It seems that some of the people I asked to write me letters, either were too busy to write them or were too far gone (mentally) to write a coherent letter.
14. I don't watch TV. What I know about shows, I've heard in conversations by other people...its a self-preservation skill I started using, because I didn't have cable when I was young, and all the other kids thought it was weird that I didn't have TV, so they made fun of me. That is a lie in and of itself. We had cable when she was little. We didn't have the movie channels. We didn't have it when for long when my sister, brother and I were little, because there was no such thing until we were about high school age. My youngest sister seems to forget she had the silver spoon.
15. I lie about things. nothing major, stupid stuff mainly - things that aren't important, but for some reason, I feel like I have to lie about them. - Yes, like why she can't ever find the time to spend with her 3 youngest nieces. This is her loss! She is missing out on some of the funniest, cutest, most wonderful children in the world! Yes, I am biased, but I love my girls and wish they could spend more time with their family. It is shameful the way they don't get to see their family. They know their father's family and they love them to pieces. These are wonderful children.
16. The reason I have all the experiences and interests that I have, ...It never worked, and now people don't like me because I seem like an intolerable know it all. - it is not because she is an intolerable know it all, it is because she is a biased schmuck. She thinks she is the end all be all and she closes people out of her life because they don't fit where she wants them - too fat, too stupid, too black, too white, take your pick.
I know that she is following this blog. I hope that it gives her time to think, because as far as I am concerned, she can stay away from my wonderful, unbiased, sweet little girls and I will stay out of her life also.
Sorry for jumping on my soap box, but I have had a long time to think today about her nastiness. I hope that she does have a happy life, but I know that as long as she acts and thinks the way that she does, she will grow old alone and be the useless person that she feels others are.
For the record:
My mother - an LPN who until a year ago cared for aging sisters of the Good Shepherd
My father - a man who worked very hard to put a roof over his family's head, food on the table, earned an Associate Degree.
My sister - a RN who works in a local hospital as an OR nurse
My brother - a man who is trying to the best of his ability
My cousins: a teacher and a records clerk (sorry if I am describing it wrong) who has been with the same company for 30 years! They have cared for their mother for years.
My Aunt: a woman who was left for another woman, who raised 5 children on her own, and did it without handouts!
It seems to me that my sister is looking at the wrong thing!
