After 5 years, I cannot handle Mom anymore. It seems like we rarely talk without arguing.
She left right when I was putting pancakes on plates for her and my brother, I finished the pancakes, walked to Church, moved her car to a handicapped spot, and ran the air conditioning until Church was supposed to get out, then held the door for her, and drove them home, I immediately changed, and locked myself in my room.
So, I am the root of all evil, but I am avoiding her so that we don't argue.
Oh no! I am the root of all evil! I just watched an episode of MacGyver without paying for it!
Do you see how bad I am?!
I complained to my sisters about Mom waking me, demanding breakfast, complaining that I was making breakfast, and then leaving just as the pancakes were ready.
One sister laughed at my message. The other one ignored me.
Then I complained that I have absolutely zero support, either they ignore me or they laugh at me. I asked "How hard is it to occasionally respond `Sorry, eh'?!"
"I am sorry that you don't feel that we support you" and then a bunch more words I didn't read because I made it clear they don't support me, people just don't like it when you call them out on being inconsiderate.
Something about asking what I wanted them to do.
She got upset when I didn't respond.
I wrote "Occasionally respond `Sorry, eh'" and she replied "I just don't know what you want from us!"
Seriously!
She claimed we were having a crisis, but I didn't want to talk about it.
1. Don't pretend this is all in my head.
2. Occasionally say "Sorry, eh."
Since they were as useless as ever I let them know that if I am accepted into graduate school, despite what Mom said, she doesn't have any intention of leaving Show Low, the other sister said "Woah, let's calm down!" and the other sister /reacted it because they are useless children who don't use their words.
Sure.
Let's not discuss Mom not moving with the only family member keeping her alive.
Let's let that slide.
A while later one of them shared this collection of poorly-photoshopped dad pictures:

I complained the dad was lazy with the photographed duct tape and my sister suggested maybe he used staples, too.
"Macgyver once stapled a bad guy to some sheets of plywood."
"Why do you know that?!"
