In personal news...
One of my chicks died two days ago. They were the first farm animals here. I realize they hatched out of eggs, but I only had two of them. I had fed them due to dehydration. The mother escaped. So of the two, I've only one left. I hope she fares well.
My niece will be getting married next month. The kids and I are so excited. The Unstable One tried to guilt me out of going to the wedding because she isn't invited. I'm not Einstein, but it MIGHT have something to do with her having called my niece a whore and her parents unfit, irresponsible for letting their 20-year-old daughter move in with her boyfriend (whom she's been with since she was 15). Did I mention she did this at my father's death bed? Very loving, Grandma...
Anyway, I'm being "unloyal" to her because we are going. I got up and walked away from her saying that I didn't owe her explanation and I wasn't about to defend myself. She quit the water works REAL fast.
Oh, and while she was here, she told my 6, 7, and 10-year-old children all about the lawsuit she is in with Evil Sister. Yes, Evil Sister did borrow a six digit figure from my parents (all they had) and was suppose to pay it back. Yes, Evil Sister has decided, since our father died, that he gave it to her as a gift (despite conversations where Evil Sister discussed with the Good Sister and I how she KNEW it was a loan and how she was going to pay it back). Yes, these things are true about Evil Sister
...BUT...
these are not things you tell small children. Even my 14-year-old doesn't know what's going on. Now my very sensitive 7-year-old is very worried that that his Evil Aunt has stolen all of the Unstable One's money and now Unstable Grandma can't pay her bills.
While watching the children earlier this week, the Unstable One was very naughty and did her best to make me unhappy by trying to pick fights with me. I am unhappy. Therefore Bear is unhappy. He is going to have a discussion with the Unstable One for me. Thank-you, my Bear. Very clear lines in the sand are going to be drawn. You see, I've walked away from her once and nine months later gave her another chance.
She has no more chances.

Family drama and strife can be taxing. I feel your pain.
I have to admit, I'm impressed with Nicole Ritchie. Never thought those words would come out of my mouth.
