Hello my DIS Friends,
I am having a problem with my trip.
Let me know what you think please.
As you know from my past post that I paid for my family and friends to go to DW. And the reason I did this is b/c my mom past away and when she was alive my kids and my sisters kids were together everyday. They also love my little sister b/c she has no kids and does all those nice things us tired moms can't (walk to far away parks, ride bikes etc.) Well in November, I took my sister and her kids to DW and it was cold and raining so we really didn't get to do anything so we decided we would plan another trip for late summer 2003. I in the end wond up paying for everyone and even decided to take my daughters friends. Knowing we were going to Florida, my sister decides to up and move from N.Y to NC with some people she met on her web T.V, leaving the only place she had to live. Got down there and got stranded. My wealthy uncle only helps me b/c I help myself and my sisters are into stupid things like $150 sneakers and stuff like that. Well my sister found a guy down there that rented her a house for $350 a month. And she had a job at Walmart. So thinking she made a turn around from her lazyness, I begged my uncle to help her with furniture and getting utilies on and stuff (totalling $5,000). After that she tells me she doesn't know how she's going to go to work b/c her hours are 4pm to midnight and welfare only gives her $325 a month. HELLO MY MOUTH HITS THE FLOOR. Knowing this I would have not gotten involved with asking my uncle to help. Now she has water bill, gas bill, electric bill, phone bill and rent, WITH $325 a month. I told her to get a job b/c she needs her own spending $ for FL. Careless thinking she told me she went to rent a center and rented a computer to download music with b/c she needed music
. she could have used this money she's paying to rent that for spending money.
Well she calls me Monday and tells me to ask my uncle if he could pay for her electric bill and phone bill. Now from her $5,000 bill, my uncle just paid that pulling the money out of his Merrel lynch accounts (which the puts money in religously to keep it high to collect the intrest). he has not sent me any money - which he sends me $150 every 2 weeks for years, so that he can build back up his account. Well due to that lack of money in my pocket and another delimma, I didn't pay my electric bill and was getting a school check next Monday and going to pay it in full. I come home and the electric CO. is at my door ready to shut off the electric. The only way to keep it on was to pay them a check right then and there for $640. I called my uncle and he wrote me a check for $700 and I paid the guys at my door. He wasn't mad but he sounded a little down b/c I know that's coming out of Merrel Lynch. My sister calls me yesterday asking me if I asked him about her bills and I told her no b/c of what happened to me. And she's going to get mad and say "well I'm not going to let Disney World stop me I'm going to look for a job tomorrow". I was not going to argue with her and tell her "no one told you to pack up your 4 kids and move where you have no help anyway", way I? No. I just told her I have to get back to my H.W and hung up.
There was a post here acouple of weeks ago about the aunt who told her neice and nephews to earn there trip by keeping up grades and getting jobs and that her sister uses the kids as pons to get what she wants. Well this is where I understand her point b/c my sister knows I make every attempt not to let my kids down (which they will be if her kids don't go) and I try not to let her kids down.
Well I believe she just throw it in my face to pay her bills or she won't go. And I am so torn. Whay should I do?
