Struggling

I have not posted in a few days because I have been struggling with what I want to post about. We had a very busy weekend. We worked pretty hard all weekend at the craft show and then the normal home things that you need to do. On Monday morning I felt like I didn't get a weekend. I am still struggling with issues with my sister. When she texts me I need to learn to just ignore the text. That is easier said than done. I try self control but I always feel like I need to get my say in there. Last night I decided to just not respond to her texts anymore. It just stresses me out too much. I can have a great day going and then she will text me and it ruins my mood. The thing I know but don't practice is I allow her to do this to me. I am not allowing her to do that to me anymore. I forgive her because I know that is what I should do but I guess you can choose who you want to associate with and I choose not to associate with her anymore. In the last 2 years she has hurt me more than anyone I have ever been involved with. I am not sure why she feels the need to act this way to me but I am done with trying to figure it out. It is sad because I only have 1 sister but on the other hand I have been blessed with many friends. My best friends are more like sisters to me than she is. It is a hard realization to come to but I am trying my hardest to do this. I get sad just typing this. I talked to my brother in law Sunday night on the phone (her ex) and we had a nice discussion on how she is like that to her own daughters so it is not just me. My BIL seems to think she is bi-polar and I am starting to think that myself. Every time she talks to her oldest daughter she makes her cry. My niece's boyfriend does not like when she talks to her. Then she will call her the next day saying hi hunny like nothing ever happened. I am just done with it. She is getting married on July 10th and wants my son to walk her down the isle. I am not sure how I am gonna handle this so we will see. One part of me says why go and spend all that money to attend her wedding when she claims she can't stand me and wants nothing to do with me. Oh well, there is time to figure it out.


On a brighter note, I was watching the news this morning and I seen these new flip flops that are made in Michigan called Bandals with interchangeable straps for any color you wear. You need to go check it out http://www.bandals.com/ . What a brilliant idea. Why couldn't I think of it? LOL I love sandals and can't wait to start wearing them.


I sure hope everyone has a great day. I will leave you with a picture of me, my sister and our girls.
