A little needed venting...

I need to vent!!!  And I know all you lovely ladies that read my blog wont mind...And I THANK YOU for that!!!  If you don't want to read it, you don't have to...Just scroll to the bottom and read the last part :)

So.....Yesterday our car was acting up so I told my husband that after he dropped me off he should bring it to a mechanic....Well he did and called me a little later...That guy thought there was a certain thing wrong with it and it could probably be fixed for a couple hundred dollars...It sucks, but we could of paid for it...OR...it could be the Tranismission...Oh please oh please DON'T be the Transmission...So the hubs left it there and took their loaner car so they could take a look at it in the morning...This morning the hubs calls me at work and says "I've got some bad news".....So what do you think is wrong with it???  If you guessed that we need a new Transmission....YOU ARE 100% correct!!!  And it's going to cost a VERY pretty penny...Ok, so it is do-able for us to pay for this, but Scott is not working and is no longer getting unemployment it's going to suck...And this is something we could of lived without happening....But anyways...Scott calls my dad (which I'm still shocked that he did) and asked my dad if he would pay for the down payment of getting it fixed (we can make a couple payments) and my dad says "I don't know, let me think about it and call you when I get home."  Well we go over there tonight to have dinner and my dad doesn't say anything to us about it....A couple hours go by and finally he mentions something about why Scott isn't having it rebuilt and blah, blah, blah...So we get ready to leave and my dad is like well why don't you let me know whats going to happen tomorrow (Scott's calling around to see about it being rebuilt).  But of course he doesn't say, "I can loan you the money" or "you can borrow one of my vehicals until the Transmission gets fixed" (if we get the transmission fixed, we will need a car...Which means we will have to rent one, which mean more money we really don't have) or anything like that he justs gives us the annoyed talk...So what am I getting to here...

Well, my sister and my nephew both live with my parents, my sister pays the electric bill, cooks dinner once in awhile and buys some groceries with her FREE bridge card money (i'm not putting anyone down for getting free groceries, Scott is actually looking into this for us)...And comes and goes as she pleases and my parents are her free daycare...But he will in a drop of a hat help her out!! Like just the other day, he gave her $150 for half of the dog she just bought!!! My sister sucks at having pets...She doesn't like them....But they bought this dog for my nephew (but while at their house tonight, he played with it ONCE) He doesn't care if he has a dog!!  And last night when I went to go pick up my mom and dad from the bar, he tells me that the dog is HIS...BULL!!)  A couple weeks ago, he gave her $100, put her concert tickets on his credit card (he said she paid him back, but I highly doubt it!) He has paid A LOT of her bills when she wasn't living there, he has gone over to her house where she used to live and mowed her lawn for free, at her old place I don't know how many times he went over there to fix something, and when she asks for money he gives it to her (he bitches, but still does it) He also had to shut off her cellphone that was in HIS name because she wasn't paying the bill and it left him with a really high last bill, like a hundred and something and $200 early cancel agreement plan...And she hasn't paid him back!!!

Last year when I go into a car accident and totalled my car, he wouldn't let me use one of his vehicals (he has a truck and a car) and he wouldn't loan my $1500 to buy a new car and he will NOT co-sign for a loan...So we borrowed Scott's mom's van (THANK YOU) but when she needed it back, we wanted to save a little more money to buy something better did he let us use a vehical...NOPE!!  Did he help us out with buying a car...NOPE...So is he going to help us out with getting our car fixed or let us use his car...I can almost guarentee that this is an even big NOPE...BUT...I don't even remember how many times I have picked him up from the bar or his friends house kinda late at night because he was being responsible and not drinking and driving, or the amount of times that I drove him back to go get his car the next day, or the fact that YOU are on OUR cell phone plan!!!! Because we were nice enough to HELP YOU out!!! Or the time when my parents split up and my mom was "scared" that the guy she left my dad for was going to "hurt" her so he called my sister and I over to his house to plan our "kidnap" and get her out of the house...Yeah, I went and picked my mom up while her boyfriend was gone and got her out of the house, then went back not once but TWICE with the COPS to get her belongings out of the house and move them back to his house!!! All because she was scared of him and needed my dads help to get out of there, but my dad couldn't do it...So who goes and helps!!! ME!!  My sister came, but she was late and almost screwed up the plans because she went out drinking the night before and wouldn't answer her phone because she was hung over....My dad always tells me that we are family and that is what family is for to help each other out...REALLY...WTF?  So the next time you need a ride home because you don't want to drive home drunk....Call a TAXI because frankly, I'm done!!  Or if my mom decides to leave you again for another piece of shit...Good luck getting her back, because I will no longer get involved in your drama...I say this all this time and I keep going to pick him up from his friends or the bar, but really I can't and I wont do it again...If family is supposed to help each other out, when are you going to help me out!!???

Sorry guys, but I had to vent...Thanks for listening...What would you do if you were in this position???

On a better note :)
