The tides have turned yet again. My parents are now going to rent a house next door to my brother Chad. Their suitcase is still here but they haven't so much as called me since Sunday. Dad did not take his or Mom's medicine with him when they left so I ran by there yesterday and let my daughter run it up to the door. (I have had a terrible stomach virus and didn't want to infect them.) Dad acted like he didn't even want to stick his head out of the door.

Dad and I had a "small" disagreement over my children's behavior one night a week or so ago. He had said that he would help out the household by keeping my children while I worked. I actually felt guilty about leaving them with him, he can be very grumpy! Well...that lasted about a week. He told me that my children didn't know how to mind and how could he live somewhere that he has to clean up the same room two or three times a day! Well, my son is five and tends to make a mess when he plays, he is a baby! I always make him put his toys up when he is finished but someone that isn't paying the bills in the house isn't going to lecture me on my childrens toys being in the floor. Maybe I have a bad attitude by that is the way I feel. Enough is enough. Dad told me that he thinks that he and mom need to find somewhere else to stay (his social security had started about two days before), well of course at this point in time I whole heartedly agreed with him.

They started looking for a house.

Chad and Jamie are back together. Jamie is pregnant with his child (they had a test done). They have filed bankruptcy.

Michelle my other sister-in-law is now speaking to me again. They now have my brothers two girls all summer long so there are ten people living over there 24-7.

It is nice to have my house back even though it isn't quite as clean.
