@Blueberrybook I feel like I'm sleeping well at night but clearly there's a disconnect somewhere. I was at work falling asleep -- but luckily my job has a lot of down time and there's nothing for me to do if a customer isn't here. We didn't have a customer all day long, so it wasn't an issue -- but obviously I don' t like sleeping at work lol.

So the drama with family is rough. Once upon a time I thought highly of my grandparents but those days are long gone. There was a debacle a few years ago where my sister and I were accused of something heinous -- which lead to conversations about how my grandparents " dont know me" nonsense. Without getting into that -- I've never stepped foot in their home again. If I see them around, I'm cordial -- and if they are at a family function, I'm kind... but I'm not going out of my way to be hurt like that again.That all being said... my relationship with them has been strained for years.

My sister lives in a house my grandparents inherited like 25 years ago. My sister pays rent. We've had multiple issues over the past few years with my grandparents threatening to sell the house out from under her (after verbally agreeing it was going to be her house when they die).... but my sister has had it rough. She is schizoaffective. She's tried working and enjoys it but her condition makes it very strained on her when she has breaks from reality. Stress is a major trigger.... she is on SSI, but only makes like $870 as she tries to work top make more money..... anyway to the current issue.

My grandparents asked her to come up to their house to talk. They want her to sign a contract that she will pay $200 extra dollars in rent ($650) AND there's a clause that if she doesn't pay it by the 10th they reserve the right to evict her. and told her she could freely just move out if she didn't want to sign it.

Now despite being a little insulting. My grandparents might as well be called slumlords. They ***** and moan at any repair they have to make, and they do they very least they can, and not in a timely manner. The house is falling apart and it's fair to my sister they demand so much and they can't even do their part as landlords. I told my sister to research landlord responsibilities and laws, and let them know she will report them if they don't comply. What makes me so angry about it is honestly, if they wanted to ensure rent is promptly paid without issue they could register the house for HUD -- but it wouldn't pass inspection and they know that. So instead they'll offset the burden on my sister by expecting her to live on $200 ish dollars a month.

That whole side of my family, I really just feel like disconnected from. I want nothing to do with them. Like my grandpa told me -- "Your family is nothing but troublemakers and need to leave my family alone" -- I feel the same too these days sadly. HIS family and MY family are NOT the same.

Well, end of rant
