You know it's going to be a bad day when you see Rod Sterling talking and he's not facing you.

Re: Odd Happenings
It can get much worse my friend. Try this on for size: Your parents get to be 60’s and 70’s and the step mom runs off with a younger man (60’s) and files for a divorce on the grounds of mental cruelty. Pop refuses to believe what has happened so you hire him a detective. The detective lays out the hard proof and the divorce on grounds of adultery commences. Three years later, when all is said and done, no one hates the adulterous bit**, they all hate you! Step mom (with reason) Half/brothers, sister, they all think it would have blown over if you had kept out of it. No one cares that she all but cleaned Pop out!
Then the bit** files for half of a family trust which she thought was Pop’s money. A: It’s not his; he gets a portion of the income, and B: she is excluded from any benefit by an existing prenuptial agreement. 30 grand later the court agrees. As trustee, I ask for and get 300% legal fees for the bullsh** suit, as is the law in this state. I take the amount spent in legal fees and release her from the remaining obligation. Again I am the SOB of the family. The consensus is that I should have paid her off. Then she talks two of the half/siblings into trying to remove me as trustee on the grounds that by releasing her from the remainder of the judgment, I was not acting in the best interest of the trust. Well that one fell flat on its face at pre-trial.
Now she has talked two of the half/siblings into trying to break the trust! A trust that has provided for the retirement of two, soon to be three generations of my family, not to mention seen many of them through financial difficulties. So now I am in the position of protecting the trust from the actions several members of my family.
So if you think house guests are bad, just consider how bad it could get.

Re: Odd Happenings
We all know about Stepmothers. You are not an SOB. I have many a horror story I can swap, but nothing tthat tops what has happened to you.
My step brothers and I are still friends despite lifes little twists and turns.

Holy COW, Thermo! With all that going on, hard to believe your message didn't include the word, shotgun, somewhere.

Hell, I haven't lost my temper in days I used to have nightmares about what my Stepmother bit** from Hell put me through. Then while in the hospital once, drugged up, I beat the ever lovin **** out of her in a dream and viola, no more bad dreams.
