SD62's Legal Probs, part 2
Well, we were all wrong. SD62 did find her way to the courtroom at 9 Tuesday. DH just spoke to her, I had already seen another vourt date in March.
She says this was a preliminary hearing. She liked her public defender who she had not met in person. I believe those are facts. Then, we veer into what might be the "SD Spin Area for Dad" section where the lawyer said, in effect, it will all go away and don't worry. Uh huh.
Just an update, guys. I could hear her voice and she sounded subdued. She will be here tomorrow so we will see.

SD62's Legal Probs: A Quiz
SD62 participated in a credit card scam almost 3 years ago. She's been dodging court ("They never let me know!") and it's been continued many times. Finally last year, a warrant was issued and SD62 was arrested in October during a traffic stop. Due to overcrowding and her promise to appear, she was released but never appeared. She was arrested again last month during another traffic stop and jailed. DH86 had to bail her out with $500.

What these Daddeees think
%You've heard me rant over and over about SD62, her thefts, her lies,, her jailings, her last catastrophic stay with us when she stole from us and scared us with her weird, dangerous druggie behavior. We':ve been subsidizing her living elsewhere for the past 6 years and it's been worth every penny not to have her here.
I admit I can't forgive and forget and probably have PTSD. Every time she comes over, I'm nervous. She calls DH86 when she needs $, has car trouble or anytime she can't handle reality.

SD62 in Jail Again
In October, SD62 went to jail for an outstanding warrant. She had participated in a credit card scam with 2 men a couple years ago. The case was continued time again with SD62 not appearing. So in a traffic stop, she was arrested and went to jsil. We got the frantic call then, with a request for $500 bail, but due to overcrowding and SD62's promise to appear, she was released before DH86 had to post bail. She got a court-appointed lawyer and told DH86 it was all over. I was tracking it on case.net and could see it was NOT over.

The Organ Recital
Mercifully, SD62 cancelled her Christmas party last night due to her illness. I'm sorry anybody is sick (DS and wife are sick, too) but the relief was apparent in everyone I called about it.
SD62 called today. There was a 30-minute recital of all her ills, what the Dr said, what the hospital said, about all her ailments. in between, she interjected some non-medical problems she's having.
I hate to feel so insensitive to suffering but talking with her is so draining. Just a rant, sigh.....

Tough Week Coming Up -Update
I weathered my week with the tetanus shot, Mom's successful surgery, Walmart and only the eye doc to go today. But SD62'S PARTY TOMORROW IS CANCELLED! She's very sick and I'm glad she had the sense to pull the plug.
Everyone seems relieved, me, most of all. Happy holidays, everyone!!

Holiday gifts for grandparents
This is my holiday public service post for people wondering what to give the older people in their family. I'm 79 (almost) and DH is 86 so I'm qualified. We have all the "stuff" we need and are trying to downsize, donate, pawn off (lol) a lot of it so dont need more.

I wasn't up to it today
DH86 and I planned a quiet Thanksgiving at home today. I accidentally bought a duck instead of a turkey but whatever. SD62 called this morning and he later passed the phone to me. She related her dinner plans at home alone today with a bigger dinner tomorrow at her daughter's. She sounded ok and since she's very picky, had the exact food she likes.

SD61 is in jail - Update
She's out but before explaining, just know IT'S NOT HER FAULT. DH86 spoke with her a few minutes ago. They let her go (overcrowding and no record) on the condition she pay the bond today and then show up for the whatever. She has been saving for Christmas but was $120 short so DH sped off. She is supposed to have someone with her when she goes today but said if DH didn't want to go, she has someone who will.
