I wish i knew where to start on my vhenting rampage. I'm sure I could go on forever. lol
I guess i'll go with the few that are bothering me most.
I found out today that my sister(who is staying with us temporarily) might have stolen my late grandfathers personalized wallet from my 83 year old grandmother's room(she also lives with us) as well as with the money inside. It is missing. We would like to hope that my grandmother has merely misplaced it but with my sister's shady past and known for her stealing, we are lead to believe that this was no accident. This wallet theft upsets me more since the wallet was very special to my family and was meant to be mine in the future.
Another is that my sister and i are sharing a room, i'm 20 about to start college and used to being by myself alot. As selfish as this seems, i want my room, my belongings and everything else back the way they were. I am uncomfortable, i cant get to half of my room due to her blow up bed, she inisits on having the door open at night(i cant sleep with the door open, logn story) and she stays on the comuter until all hours of the morning keeping me awake with her incessant typing and messenger noises. scream
I do not trust, or like my sister in the least as she is disrespectful, irresponisble, a drug user, promiscuous and rude. She is only managable when she is high on weed and even then she is a force to be reconed with. It has only been 3 weeks but i am finding it hard to allow this bullshit to go on. We are already raising her two children, i don't want to have to baby sit her as well. She is 23 and should be acting as such. No one is helping me out with this. My mother really didn't care until now, with the wallet missing. I seem to be on my own with this situation and it doesn't seem fair as never agreed to her being here in the first place. I have alot of stress as it is in my life right now with many other things. I really don't need or want to have to deal with this as well. Tell me, am i wrong to feel as i do or am i being selfish?
That's my rant for the day. thanks for listening. Please excuse any grammar/spelling errors. gonk

I don't think your being selfish at all! It sounds like your sister needs to chill out. She is being inconsiderate of not only your feelings but eveyone in the household. Is there anyway she or you could get your own space? You really need it. Going to college will be a big change for you, you will need you time or at least some sleep!!

Plus, your sis sounds like she needs to rethink where her life is going if she's all that.

Unfortunately, we have tried for many years to snap some sense into her but have failed. She does not care, about anyone or about anything but herself.
And with 7 people in our home and only 4 bedrooms(mine being homemade in the basement), my own space is impossible unless i were to move out, that is largely impossible due to money. I have only just started my new job and am barely bringing in 100$. So i suppose i don't have much of choice... sad

Yea living with a drug user is nearly impossiable to say the least, the only time she is going to start careing is when she her self hits rock bottom, and the only way you all can help in this, is to not help, you have to turn your back on her, it will be the hardest thing to do, because as much as she irratates you she is still your sister, I know my sister is fighting her own demons, and I got in a hugh fight with her and I stopped talking to her and I wouldn't go over to her house, then she seen where her path was taking her and she decided that being my sister was more important than the drugs, and is seeking help, it will be years before all of it is out of her system, I hope that she can recover as much as possiable before our dad passes away, other wise I think she will end up in the same sittuation as she is now. Your not being selfish, she need to be kock to the curb and told she isn't allowed back untill she is clean, or something like that.

Thank you. Being told that i'm not being selfish has made me feel much better. Everyone else seems to think I am, though i do not believe they are seeing the whole picture very clearly if at all. I do hope she gets her act together soon.
She missed our grandfather's final days, moments and funeral due to her idiocy and regrets it, he was like a father to us since ours was....incapable.
Also, i would hate to have to break away from the only sibling i have. When all is said and done, she will still be family and i don;t want to have to break that bond over stupidity that can easily be changed with a bit of control, will power and determination.
Its sad that i should have to consider removing her from my life because of her decisions. Her children have already suffered at her expense and still she makes us suffer as well, as she's done all our lives.
In any case, thanks to all of you who have lent me some advice and positive words. It's made me feel alot better. It's make me feel good to know that next time i am in need of a little cheering up, i can turn to the AoG for that boost. Lord knows my family causes me enough of those much needed moments.
Thanks again. biggrin

Wow, that is intense. I can't really give any advice gonk
It sucks with the invasion of privacy. And with 7 people, it must be hard to find the peace and quiet you need for school. I had a hard time with my studies and noise related problems. I had to resort on staying at school for homework (as much as possible) or resort to ear plugs (although in your case I'm not sure earplugs would be enough).
I hope you can find one place where you can be by yourself, no matter where it may be....

First of all how long is temporary? Secondly, She is a grown woman with children and a guest in your room. You should lay down some ground rules! Your school is more important than anything she could possibly be up late on the comp. for! Surely your mom uderstands how important school is and that she would be affecting it. She is 23, if I was her mom I would have kicked her out. My kids can live with me as long as they want, as long as they are trying to make a future for themselves! Drugs, theft and no job, not under my roof! Maybe just try talking to your mom about it.

Drugs, theft and no job, not under my roof! Maybe just try talking to your mom about it. We know its for at least another month or two.She really doens't concern herself with what i think, and she normally stays up lating talking to guys and planning on meeting up so she can get 'laid'. Like she needs that and like i need to know that.
My mother really doesn't concern herself either. Tells me to stop complaining and be a team meber despite her speechs of how hard and important college is. I want nothing more for this to be a calm and fun experience, even with the huge workload. I can't very well do any of it with my sister in my room and my family not really caring too much what goes on. I have confronted her about the computer only to be threatened of having it moved upstairs. Which in all honesty isnt much fair or a good idea due o the children.
So it leaves me to work at school which is a challenge as well since i also have a part time job i need to get to after classes. So you seem my dilema. The only person who feels my pain is my step father who dislikes my sister, though he's a bit of an a** so not much help.
