Now Playing: Nothing, just the ticking of a clock
Got up early today. 6:30am, just after Lester left for school. I cleaned up a bit before sitting and crocheting for a while. I'm trying to make some lovely dollies as christmas gifts. Seeing as Lester and I are too poor to afford much right now. Haven't been able to find a job in this hick town! No one's hiring anywhere near-by and that sucks ass. Marisa has no car...
Mom was in a car accident the day before yesterday. It happened when she got out of work around 7am. She's okay, her car just has a big dent on the driver's side. And the accident was entirely her fault, or so the witnesses and police say. Mom actually admitted it to an extent. She says when she was making a right turn, a lady in a jeep was coming from the left with a right turn signal on, so Mom rushed to turn in front, thinking the woman would turn down the street Mom just came from, but not so! The lady was planning on turning down the next street, so she hit Mom. And seeing how those blocks are too damn small, the streets are narrow, I can understand why the lady put her signals on early. Mom's in a mess of insurance problems and expired stickers on her car. She gave Lester an insurance card to put in his car, since both cars are covered together. And she searched ALL MORNING for her cards so she could imeaditately go and get the sticker at the courthouse, but she couldn't find hers. Well when Lester got home, we went to get the sticker for her with our card... And guess what???! Our card expired on July 7, 2004! Hmm, I was pissed at Mom for not even checking on those damn cards. She says she got nothing in the mail about it. I said well hell, maybe you should go over to the insurance office and get the damn cards yourself! Common sense people, common sense. But this is the richest part, She called in Thursday, just to travel into Houston (where she works and goes to everyday) and stop at the insurance office and get the new cards. But you guessed right, she laid around all day doing nothing, saying it's too far, she's not going all the way over there to get something that will be mailed to her next week. I stood there dumbfounded and just walked away. Lester was extremely pissed since he has to drive to Houston everyday, and almost got into an accident himself... with expired cards.
But that's my mom for you. She cares more about laying around the house all day, watching TV, eating all the food we buy with our little money, than going out and taking care of her responsibilities. And now she just told me that I owe her 1,300 dollars for the expenses I ocurred while living here, or as long as Lester moved in. Lovely, just lovely. Lester owes her a whopping 10,000 dollars for the car and insurance. Which I must add she throws in our face almost everyday. She'll get her money. It's about the only things she truly loves. She completely disowned her own brothers and sisters, and even her own father because of money. And now it seems that her own daughter will follow...
I surely hope this weekend goes by peacefully. All I want is to alone with Lester, won't be easy with mom sneaking about. She'll get pissed at Lester cause he'll be home all weekend and she won't. Like it's his fault she volunteered to work Labor day. I'm tired of it all.
