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.
