Real sick of my mom
3 years ago
To lay out some preliminary stuff: I have medication back it, it works, I'm writing more. Commissions will be completed, I promise.
Anyway, I'm about done with my narcissist of a mom and her bullshit. Today has seriously had me at my limit. Alright, so my dad gets paid every second wednesday and that's when we go grocery shopping. My dad's a traditional values kind of christian guy so he gives my mom money to buy groceries since that's what women do, apparently. Except she actually steals a huge amount of it away for herself to buy her shit. She has both admitted brazenly to doing this and ALSO insisted she doesn't because she's borderline schizo and two-minded about everything.
She didn't want to do the shopping today so she handed me her debit card and a list of shit to, most importantly of course would be 20 bucks of scratch-off lotto tickets and like forty dollars of wine. Whatever. She always gets those because she pounds like five bottles of alcohol every week and is obsessed with winning big on lotto tickets (she's bought thousands has never won more than like fifty bucks from one of them). We go to the local HEB and I get the stuff, only to learn that there was so little on her card that not only could I not get like ten things on her list, I had to pay the remainder myself. I couldn't get all the alcohol and no lotto tickets.
My dad stated to me in the car that he gave her over double the amount of money to "budgeted" for grocery shopping.
When I got home I confronted her about this and her response was, almost completely verbatim, "fuck you, I can take money for myself if I want" and "take the bus down to the nearby liquor store and get me my rum tomorrow" (her car is broken. It has been for a year. My dad gave her TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS to fix it. She pocketed all the money and pissed it away on slot machine apps for her phone and buying herself clothes and other crap). I didn't even get an apology. I need to go to the mall the liquor store is at anyway to replace my broken headphones at a best buy so I wanted to go there anyway, and I like walking around outside anyway so fuck it, but rrrrrrrrrrrrgggghhhhhhhhhh
