a think a person with lyme is much easier to rile than someone who doesn't have it.
well his family has pushed my button for the absolute last time. that's it. whenever i try to do something good it gets screwed up, so i'm going to be a rotten person!!!
his sister, who lives in salt lake, has been complaining about not having good cookware and because she lives hand to mouth, i thought i would send her a set of what i have. i have a really nice set of cusinart which is great. i use pam and don't put it in the dishwasher. i've never had any problems with it. no stick and looks great. i cook alot.
so i bought her this big set and sent it ups to her house.
she calls me today and starts complaining about it. it sticks, it burns stuff, it's too heavy and hurts her hands. the handles get hot, the lids are glass. did i leave anything out??
so here's the problem. i paid with sam's credit card. she THREW THE BOX AWAY AND DOESN'T BELONG TO SAM'S CLUB. SO SHE CAN'T RETURN THEM..
I called my sam's club and the manager was so great. he said because she has no way of proving where she got it, he recommends she take it to ups and send it back to me, and after hearing me rant and rave, he will personally take it back with my receipt. he was sooooo nice. said he understood completely about in-laws and laughed.
i do not want her to return it and get a gift card or cash as husband and i both know what she does with money. she'll give it to her son and the woman living with her and waste it. so no, i don't want her to return it herself anyway.
i'm sitting here with a bp going through the roof trying to calm down. i tried to do something nice and i get this whiney phone call about how bad she feels and she wants me to return it and can i call sam's and yada yada yada.
so i emailed her the manager's comments and told her i would pay for the ups shipping myself and send her a check to make sure she's not out any money. just let me know what it cost and i'll pay. so i'm out the shipping up and back, but not too bad.
from now on if you get something from me you're dang lucky....
ooooo, i am so angry... and yes i discussed the brands with her and she commented that oh, wow, i'd like to have a set of those but can't afford it, and on and on ....you get the picture.
so i'm trying to calm down cause i know it's not good for my lyme......
her blasted phone call has ruined my day and i'm trying to be a nice person. a nice round fat person but hey...i'm trying...
ah well...i swear if santa comes to this house he better have a darn good gift that's all i've got to say....
