Flour Foul Up



Hello Everyone:

It's been a pretty gray Monday.  I had to check the calendar to make it was April, not November.  Today's post was beset by some minor technical difficulties. Very frustrating but I can deal with it much better than deal with mum's nonsense.  The current nonsense revolves around a bag of flour.  I gave the BIL somethings to store in his everyday kitchen over Passover so I could respect mum's request not have any grain products in the house during the holiday.  Mum wanted to throw out a nearly full bag of flour but I argued that it would be better to store it away until after the holiday.  I thought I won the argument when the BIL agreed to put in a cabinet and return it to me after Passover.  Yesterday, I texted sis to tell I like the food I stored back so I could bake this week.  No problems on that end accept mum drops that she went behind my back and told the BIL to toss the flour.  A quick text to sis confirmed that nothing got thrown out.  So obviously mum lied to me about it.  When I called her out on it, she acted like I was making the whole thing up and she had every right to make up a story because it was in the name of religious observance.  That only makes the lie worse.  Needless to say I was super angry.  I already have trust issues with family members and this doesn't help the situation.  Of course, she thinks everything is fine.  This is so typical of her, to act like whatever I say doesn't matter.  I don't say anything without meaning it and expect to be listened to.  Apparently in mum's world, I can be ignored.  So now, things are at a standstill.  Right now I'm limiting the conversation to the bare necessities.  I really have no interest in anything beyond that.
