Cold is on the Right, Hot is on The Left
I'm nursing a headache, don't know what to do, and just feel at a loss.
My SIL walked out the door yesterday, got in the car with her case manager, didn't tell us goodbye, didn't say she was leaving, didn't ask us to care for her dog, she just left. No one will tell us where she is or if she'll be back. Nothing. Not even after we called the sheriff's office and reported her missing.
It's been nearly 48 hours now, and we've heard nothing. I've stressed, worried, and cried, and the agency her case manager works for only tells us, "Well, we don't know anything we can leave a message for her to call." But no one calls...Not SIL, not the case manager, not the counselor, no one.
Then today we get the news that DH will have back surgery sometime next month. They will call and let us know when it is scheduled for. He will be in the hospital 1-4 days, depending on how he does with the surgery. We have to go to Youngstown for it.
To top that off, I had to talk with my nephew today and a neighbor to see if they can work out the childcare between the two of them for that time, as I can no longer trust my children to be safe at my mother's home.
Today we found out that my 13 year old brother intentionally shot my 10 year old DD in the shoulder with his BB gun....and she didn't tell anyone because she was too scared to tell and my brother had told her not to tell!!!!!! So he's in a butt load of trouble now by my mom, and mom said she understood that I refuse to allow my children to be there anymore because I am not guaranteed they are safe. DH wanted to call the sheriff and report him. Mom said she's cleaning out my brothers room today and confiscating all of his belongings except his bed, dresser, and clothes, she's taking his bb gun, he no longer is going to have TV priveleges, and she's going to "whack the tar outta him" when he gets home. See, he had left for boyscouts camp, and my DS told on my brother after my brother had left for camp. We had a long talk with my DD about telling us from now on when someone hurts her, because those are the things she should be telling on!
Supposedly he said before he shot her, "If I shoot a person, it won't go through them it will just bounce off." Then when he did it, and it left a mark (didn't go through, but blistered her skin and made her bleed a bit) and he said, "Oh, I didn't know it would do that, I'm sorry, don't tell Grandma."
AGH....Now I have a stress headache and I just want to sleep the weekend away.

You've been through enough. Time to zone out with the covers over your head and let the world take care of itself for a little while.
