Thanks yall. The flower thing does sound good, but I think I have passed that point. This has been going on a while and I've already tried to be friendly, I've ignored her, I've tried being over friendly (sitting down at the lunch table with a big smile on my face saying, "whacha talking about?" knowing it was 'me'), I've done just about everything.
-------------
My brother just called and left a message saying he wanted to talk to me, he said he had a weird week and had alot to tell me. I just can't deal with that right now! I used to let him vent to me and I would try to advise him, but at some point it just got to be too much for me.
Add to this my sister called earlier complaining about her boyfriend, who she's wanted to get away from for the last 8 years, saying he came to pick her up drunk. And I was like, and what if he does that and drives with my nephew! She's all like, "What am I supposed to do, he'll come after me, where would I go, blah, blah, blah". I told her none of that will mean anything if my nephew gets hurt. I've been through all this a thousand times with her. I just can't listen to it anymore when she refuses to do anything about it.
I've really got to go back to therapy, I know that. I lost the number of the therapist my Pdoc gave me, so I've been procrastinating while looking for it. I've got to take my own advise and stop complaining and start doing something about it.
Thanks for the encouragement everyone.
