Don't question yourself about stuff like that!
Your mother gave them to you, and you have NO need to give them up for some idiot excuse of your sister's!
If this had been the first request of your mother's items that your sister made, that would be different, or, if you'd gotten the lion's share of the inheritance. But it's apparent from your story that she has gotten MORE than her fair share, so don't let her bully you around!

I know that family can have the most abusive hold on you. Since there is so much emotional investment, it makes it easier for family members to take advantage of you, your time, your money, your stuff, etc. I'm still working on standing up to my family, myself. Good luck!

Don't apologize for ranting! It's your journal. Glad you stood your ground on those rings. My mother is mishandling two rings of no monetary value simply because it has no monetary value that my paternal grandmother gave her. I can't do anything about it. My mother also only cares about things of monetary value and will fight for inheritance just so she can sell the things. She has no regard for the nostalgic or personal value things may have to other family members. It makes me so angry to think about so I think I understand your reaction.

Thanks again ladies for your concern. I'm still optimistic...we all are.

Trisha: As for my sister, I only have an issue with my one sisters really. She is my only full blood sister. I don't really like to make that distinction as I love all of my sisters, but it's the truth. So, even if I don't hear from anyone else, I EXPECT to hear from her. So when I didn't, yeah, I got really angry. I'm getting over it...kind of, sort of, but I'll never forget. I'm not certain how that will affect my actions or relations with her going forward, and I know it's not really a good way to be, but that's my way.

And...now that I think of it, she could be intentionally acting out of meaness or spite.

(big snip)

*Note* Sorry for the long rant. I removed a bit of the end, as I felt I crossed a line that I shouldn't have. However, the rest I'll keep as I'm too lazy right now to edit any further.

Oh. In that case she sounds like a word that rhymes with "witch" and she deserves the full brunt of your anger, sweetie. *hugs* Cool

I'm glad the air is cleared. Gosh, I should be the last one to point fingers at anyone ranting. I don't expect people to read my entries but sometimes I just need to see my own thoughts in writing. Sometimes I suddenly see things in a different perspective. I don't know your sister. Perhaps she feels guilty having asked for those rings in the first place if she's had some more time to think.
