why fight? Why not just show up when you said and let her stew? You're just there for Roberta & Zach, anyway. She will be unhappy no matter what happens. Set your boundaries and stop by Ross' place on your way home. The whole clan will be there

Hmmm, tempting.
Fighting is what we do.

Just got off the phone with my mother. Someone had sent her an email out of the blue praising her new book, which was written years ago. The Rod Taylor Company and their crack scouts had discovered her work and wanted to turn it into a screenplay that they would then present to Hollywood. She wanted me to call them and see if they were legitimate. I was pretty sure they were a fraud without even calling them and decided I wouldn't call them.
She then decided to ask how my writing career was progressing.

A story about my sister. She's been having a rough patch of late. Not only is she dealing with my mother constantly, but her work at Prospect High has taken a turn for the disastrous. In a nutshell, a younger teacher wants some of the special classes that my sister teaches and has convinced the principal to give them to the younger teacher. The principal has put up a job listing for my sister's job. My sister will now have to interview to see if she can have her job. Despite the fact, she is retiring at the end of next year. All the principal and the younger teacher had to do was wait one school year to not be complete dicks.
So, I'm giving my sister a bit of a pass for the following incident.
I got a strange email that started out as a text message. I didn't know who it was from. It talked about greed and birthday gifts. Very odd.
I'm on the phone with my sister and she asks did I get her text. I said no at first and then asked about the strange email/text. She said that was from her. She wanted to know if I was mad at her. The reason she thought I was mad at her was because I hadn't sent her any birthday presents this year. What? I was about 80% sure that I had sent her some presents and said so. But I had to check.
I went to Amazon and quickly found the gifts I had sent her. They were delivered several days after her birthday. I texted my sister pack with the invoices. I emailed the companies to find the tracking numbers for the packages. One company immediately emailed me back with the info.
My sister texted back that she had never seen them.
And then she texted back that she loved the gifts. I was unsure what she meant. Did she love the idea of them from the pictures. Nope. She had the gifts. She had the received them. She had forgot about them and then lost them in her computer/craft room. Yes, my sister had lost the gifts I sent her in her own house.

Is she going to the funeral? Sounds like she might need a welfare check, although given her job situation, you’re right about that pass. Nevertheless, a check in sounds warranted.

I talked to her yesterday. She's been having a really rough patch. Her thoughts went well down the dark hole to a very bad place.
She is not going to the funeral. Just me. Her boyfriend has a tremendous fear of Covid, which is warranted since he is high risk. So, the idea of her going out among the masses gives him the willies something fierce.

Also, she belongs to a union, so she might want to talk with her union about her situation.

She's mentioned it to the union. She's going to talk to the superintendents. Unfortunately, the principal has the authority to open up the job for applications. She will still be a teacher at the school, she just won't have the special sessions she enjoys.

Do we need to release the DOOM ninjas on this young teacher and principal? The DOOM ninjas are SIP at the moment but are probably looking for work.

It has crossed my mind that I make a little trip.
Actually, I think she needs to tell the rest of the staff at the school what is going on. Because if it can happen to her....
