My sister has a blog. She apparently wants everyone who has read and commented on MY blog to read HERS. Here's the link if you want to know her "side" and explanation of how she got where she is, or as I like to call it, excuse after excuse.

My opinion on it is that it's dull, pointless and misguided seeing as it states that there were some of you who wanted to help her. It's simply "defending" herself from the truths that I posted and is nothing towards moving forward in life except for thinking that all of you somehow have your own businesses and can/want to employ her or would even recommend anyone with no real work experience and knowing her history. Unfortunately for her, her reputation precedes her. Although it's progress to have a resume at all, it's wasted time, in my opinion, to post it to all of you.

It's also pointless towards the end where it justifies, I think, why she can't qualify for your tax dollars to help her, thank god. It's just excuse after excuse as to why OTHER people put her where she is now.

Heather! The only one responsible for you is YOU. Blaming your current situation on ex boyfriends/husbands/roommates and relying on others to get you a job, bail you out, fulfill promises, etc. is just passing on the responsibility. People get divorces. People have bad roommates. They don't run home and take advantage of their parents until their little brother speaks up and demands something happen. They may move home, but make it their priority to GET OUT or PAY RENT!

As far as jobs go, the only places that will hire you are ones that don't KNOW you. And you don't deserve anything as you have no work experience or education. You're 32 with ONE job that's lasted longer than a year. High school kids have more substantial resumes. Realize this. Minimum wage is all you should think you should deserve! Roughly $225/week after taxes! If you work nights and weekends you don't have to really worry about day care. So you're entire blog was pointless. If you want nights and weekends, as your resume states, pointing out that daycare is $150-200/week is pointless. And 4 days per week you can work two jobs since both mom and dad are around. Figure out what you can do and make it happen. Don't start creating your future excuses so you can continue on this path! Pointing out your future daycare costs and school appointments when your resume is stating that you don't even want to work during these times is just another way to create an excuse to why you can't do something. Why someone or something else is preventing you from doing it. That may be enough to convince mom and dad, but you're going to have to come up with more clever ways than that to get past me.

And don't get all high and mighty because you actually do some things for your kids like bathe them and feed them, because every time I'm there you act like you're off the clock and expect mom to do it. You even huff and puff when she doesn't. I don't care whether you try to defend this or not, it's true and you and everyone else knows it. I know, I know, I know, mom WANTS to do it or just does it, right? Wrong, you act like you need a break from your own kids (as evidenced in your blog post here), when you clearly state that you chose to have them. Sorry, you can't just "take a sick day" from your kids, nor should you want to.

I just hope this wasn't the entire "plan" that you and dad came up with. I pray it wasn't this shallow.
