Update On My Sister

Tweet

I called my sister last night at 6:30p.m. She was just getting in from vacation, I mean work. She roamed around the house for about five minutes trying to find a quiet place to talk. No sooner has she gotten settle, when her husband starts yelling at her about something. She yells back and tells him that she is on the phone with me. He tells her not to tell me about something and she tells him that she is not telling me about it, but is explaining escrow to me. Which she was. She says that the tenant upstairs has not lifted a finger to start packing up to move. I asked her to ask this lady if she needed help. I will be more than happy to go over and help her get her things together. But it seems that this lady is the only one in this situation who actually knows the law and she is not budging. She told my sister that they should have told her in December that she needed to move. They told her on the 12th of February that she had to be out on the 25th of February. You would think that they all knew better than that. But then again, my brother-in-law knows everything. He treats my sister like she has no brains at all. So my sister went downtown to learn the law, while the know it all idiot laid in the bed and watched television. Now the person who wants to buy the house is the one that hast to serve papers to this lady, but she is afraid to deal with her and my sister says that they can not do anything to help move the process along. They are stuck. I assumed that the cell phone that my sister was talking on was her own personal phone. Every body in the house use to have their own phone. Come to find out, the phone that she was on is the only phone in the house and her husband was rushing her off of it so he could use it. My sister seems so insignificant in her own home. All she does is work, pay bills, run errands, take orders from her husband, cook for every one including the children's fifteen or some odd friends and oh yeah, play taxi for everyone. She has no friends close by and family is kept at a distance by her husband. If by chance they do make it to Atlanta, she will be even more isolated. So today, I decided to change some of my priorities. I need to spend more time praying and standing in the gap for my sister. I am starting to feel nothing but anger and hatred for this whole situation and this is not healthy for me.
