My lazy days were interrupted by familiar family drama. Dad decided that my happiness at reaching a sales goal at a job not of his choosing could not stand, so he decided to try and tear me down after getting Mom to cancel her Sunday plans on his behalf.

Dad is also trying to get ME to pay my cousin for a job HE hired him to do. It deals with my house, yes, but I had no input anywhere in the process. So, having my cousin show up to my house demanding (of ME ) $10 of my DAD'S $50 debt like I had any part in "hiring" him (like I'm the deadbeat) is bitterly ironic.

All I can say about them (that I haven't already said), is that my Dad has no real identity beyond money. If he doesn't get a return on his "investment," you've devalued him as a person. My cousin is the same way coupled with being a supreme follower. He'll "tell on me" to my dad if it means getting in his good graces.

On a good note, my work week starts again! I'm excited!
