She's Back

Soon after she came back, she started to appear hostile, as if offended by something. No one could tell why.

We both thought it might have been the room: "Her" room, our study room, that upset her. It was empty when she left, and very packed now (Mr Liow opened up the remaining boxes over the weekend and these were labeled "study room").

What did she expect? I hope she didn't really think that's HER room! We had tonnes of things that originally should have gone in there since day 1....

And just because Mr Liow commented during dinner that 2 servings of rice would have been enough for us all because SHE asked for 3 servings, insisting she was extremely hungry (specifically adding she had no lunch, as if it was our fault. We didn't even know she was coming back yesterday...and I hope she's nt trying to hint that we are at fault for not knowing..).

And she took a tiny portion of her order, inciting Mr Liow's comment.

She loves to order for a village, eats like a mouse and then make us finish by repeating "don't waste food." I thought she wouldn't do that yesterday after Mr Liow's comment (and after her display of offence at what he said), but the moment Mr Liow walked away leaving me with her, she targeted me and insisted "finish up...don't waste."

Can't anyone understand why I HATE to be alone with her??

Mr Liow commented that  we'll meet his cousin (who also stays in the same estate) anytime soon, finally. We had wanted to invite then over but not till the house looks more presentable.

Her hostile, loner inner being, surfaced and she appeared upset, insisting: "why should you invite them? If they are interested, they will drop by. Anyway I don't even see a need."

She was upset wor! What's wrong with her?

The same person who keeps emphasising on maintaining family ties, is upset that we were planning on meeting his cousin. Or was she only concerned that we maintain family ties with HER side of the family?

I don't know how to be be selfless with selfish people like that.

This same person who tells us and the grandkids "don't waste food" is, again, the one who orders more than what we can eat. How not to waste? It's not about how cheap another bowl of rice is (she retorted that the additional rice cost nothing significant and was upset he voiced out the fact that she ordered too much).

We teach the kids not to be greedy. We teach them not to waste. She teaches them the same but doesn't practice what she preaches.

Hurray to double standard in our house from now on!

She was upset about this and that the moment she got back.

This is OUR house, not hers. She's starting to show dominance now. Her "forbearance" is wearing off as reality sets in: we need the room, not just some wardrobe space (originally ours to begin with) that she was willing to share.

I hate her presence.

I hate her ability to spoil everyone's mood.

I hate it that we were happy and enjoying the weekend...till she stepped into our home with her grumpy behavior and spoilt it all.

How I hate knowing these will rub off onto the kids because it's already rubbing onto me...

How much I hate where I am now.
