Follow up on the previous post, we got royally SCREWED by our landlord. Our rent did not increase $26 a month, it increased $56 a month. Claimed we were have "supposed to paid $15 a month for a pet fee and a $15 a month maintenance fee" the previous year and they forgot to charge us. Didn't budge a single dollar, basically told us we were screwed. Point of order: What the hell did we pay a $250 non-refundable pet deposit for if they are going to now charge monthly?
Screwed isn't the term for this one. Karen's mother passed Tuesday morning. We have not been in contact with her or Karen's sister Pam since September 2016. We got a call from our nephew at 7:30am saying she wasn't going to make it through the day. Um. We didn't know she was in the hospital. OK? Later that same afternoon I get a phone call from an old friend of Pam's who informed me of the death and the time of death.
Then she went into that "I know I'm not family" spiel and eventually it turned to "Pam can't afford to do anything except donate the body to HPU Medical and get the ashes when they are finished with it." I replied quietly and evenly, "I'm sorry."
She hadn't mentioned anything definite to me, but I was SURE Karen was going to do something toward her mother's final rest, but this morning we awoke to a newspaper obit with the message that there would be no services and the body was being sent to a crematorium. Then to top it all, Pam's son posts a "full obituary" on his own little Facebook page this morning, with names and dates, etc., purposefully leaving out Karen (oldest daughter), our son Josh (grandson) and his three kids, who are her great-grandchildren.
That explains my own post on Facebook today where I proclaimed that the Karen A.T.M. has closed permanently and customers should find alternate sources for emergency cash. Speaking of cash. No. I shall not go there. Not now or ever.

Yes, it's not stifling hot 24-7 and it IS dark before 7:30, so I will admit it must be autumn once again. Supposed to still be hot all ...

Yeah, seriously, where is Wally Gator, Youtube? Many of his episodes are posted in Spanish, but there's none in English anywhere I can ...
This is Jeffrey. But as far as i know. No1 at her death or following her death asked you nor Karen for any CASH.For her funeral Cremation or anything. Yall havnt spoke to maw maw in YEARS prior to her death so. Also and as far as Cheryl. no1 knew she contacted you what so ever so...So as far as the vault of yalls no1 really cares.Maw maw wasnt at the hospital 24 hours before you got the phone call from me...sooo. just wanted to clear that up. And hell none of the family besides you and Karen even knows the NAMES of ALL Joshs kids. Josh made a commengt a long time ago he didnt feel like she was his grandmother..so what sthe big deal Y so butt hurt? I put in her obituary what she would have wanted so dont blame me or no1 else blame yourselves for not being in her life. And BTW i heard from one of Karens co workers last week..she asked Karen how her mom was doing and she told the nice lady "Fine" when in fact she was DEAD. this is some1 who worked with maw maw as well. So you know when we told her shes been dead a month her mouth hit the floor. And when you got the call about maw maw did you show up at the hospital? Nope. did u call me back ask ???s..Nope. so dont act all high and mighty. And considering I paid for the obituary i sure as hell wasnt putting in people that really didnt give a shit about Kathryn Grayson anyway. You know how much obituary cost per sentences. Im not trying to cause trouble. but beofre you do your editorial to the masses get the reason WHY things were the way they were Randall Hedrick..Good day sir.
