My Family

[Greg]

I thought I was going to get away clean this morning. Since I was leaving early, I figured I would be gone before my mother got up.

Yeah, no. 

Her mind was busy about all the terrible things I did last week like making decisions without her and withdrawing money from Dad's account to pay for the party expenses.

So, she got up and said we had a few things to discuss before I left. She tried to soften the blow by giving a cross back I had given to my father. Then she talked about clothes I could take from my father's closet.

Then she wanted the credit card back my father had given me to help pay for his travel expenses. Then she wanted both my father's old and new wallets back. Obviously I am not to be trusted. She told me I wasn't raised to behave the way I was behaving.  She was mad I chose the pall bearers without her input.

So, it's a good send off back to Los Angeles. If I wasn't coming back to cover for Roberta while she is on a trip, I wouldn't be coming back.

I just have to avoid yelling my brains out for about twelve days. It's kind of hard to think about my father when all my thoughts are of how angry I am at my mother.
