Wednesday and the wife gets home from Southern California tonight😳. Been keeping up on laundry and fishes but it means yard mowing and vacuuming are on the ticket for today along with grocery shopping. I got the ears lowered yesterday do I can take off my shaggy dog license too!
Oh, I had so much fun with the new reloading room cabinet I used the original cubicles I had up there and made another unit yesterday. Face frame and doors on today’s agenda as well.

Easter Weekend... Regional Poker Tournament I qualified for on Saturday, & looks like I'll be "working" Sunday... "need" to move MRS Uncle out of her social buffalo sisters house ( nothing but screaming going on up there every single day... uncle has had all he can take ) retired navy man... expect he has endured a lot over his years... says this is worse than being tortured...
MRS has been abused by her sister for years, and has been taking it because she is the only immediate family left... but thinking this abuse of her 88 year old uncle my be the final nail in the coffin of that relationship... sister is a total control freak, with no social skills her & her husband scream, at each other at the top of their lungs non stop, & think that is normal conversation... sis is a big fat lazy gal, that tries to control everyone's life from her recliner... I'm sure the only reason her husband stays with her, is because he has never had a job for longer than 3 weeks, & couldn't support himself...
going to church Sunday morning, will be praying that we can both bite our tongues long enough to get through this...
will move uncle in at the farm until we can get him an apartment close enough to help him out as needed

After a lot of observations and thought over the years, I've concluded that some people's entire reason for existence is to make other people look better by comparison. I've actually met several of those folks.

SIL think the world has gone to heck, because no one will talk to her anymore... she has driven away anyone that has tried to befriend her, & all her cousins & the rest of her relatives... MRS is all her sister has, & I'm afraid that straw is now broken...
I "almost" feel sorry for SIL, because she is clueless she thinks "everyone else" has problems, & it's her, that I coined the phrase "social buffalo" she doesn't talk "with" anyone she only talks down to them... when MRS would typically call her sister, 9 times out of 10, she wouldn't answer the phone ( control freak ) would call back when she wanted, & often MRS would be on the phone for as long as she could stand, & maybe only get 3 words in...
I have a brother I don't talk to much, but he is half the ass, that MRS sis is... my brother feels he doesn't want to get bothered by people, so he almost never answers the phone, & very rarely returns calls... so I quit trying to talk to him... but he doesn't try to control my life like SIL does...
it's too bad these people can't seem to understand, that they are the ones alienating themselves... people quit talking to them, because they just aren't likeable people, & get sick of the abuse...
"uncle" is a peach of guy, who is still pretty sharp for an 88 year old guy... they got him there, & don't let him leave & are just leaching his money for food, rent & bills... breaks MRS heart... ( they live a little over an hour away, so we can't just "stop by" ) uncle can't even call MRS, as SIL or her husband stand there & listen, or take his phone away from him, & put it on speaker phone so they can hear...

Sounds like a legitimate case of elder abuse. If so, they probably have their names on his bank accounts and probably won't appreciate your taking away uncle (i.e. source of revenue). You may need to get senior protective services involved (or at least threaten to do so).

I like the term, coined, "social buffalo'. My wife's oldest, BF has driven everyone away and now not answering calls/texts. Has isolated herself and one of my oldest n best friends lives with her and trying to help but not be dragged down.
