Well, it could have been worse. I could walk around with my eyes and ears closed like everyone else here while they eat all the available timber. :/ the good news is, i cant hear them munching anymore, so hopefully they are all dead.

It's a common point of conflict between people, I think.
You see work that has to be done, and the others don't. From their perspective, you are creating work where none exists, and from your perspective, they are a bunch of lazy good for nothing slugs. They have the power in this situation, because the unfinished work drives you crazy and you wind up doing it yourself. They don't have to do anything and the situation resolves itself. If you want change, you need to help them to see that the work is real, so they see the need for it to be done, and then you need to tell them you won't take care of it. That it's their turn. And then you have to do nothing. It's the classic StacyV and Arsen cleaning standoff. Except you need to communicate effectively so it doesn't get bad. It may or may not work, depending on how stubborn you all are. |
Maybe your world view is primarily the house, since you live and work there, so things you think should be done there rate a high priority. Someone with a larger world view, may have different priorities.

The other person responsible brobably thinks he has a larger world view.

Heh...

Out of rehab. Not by choice.
As low as is possible to be. If you have my number; call me. I don't know it and am too chaotic to look. |
Did they kick you out?
|
I'm sorry Sundae! :(
Check in when you can, and tell us what's going on. |
!!!!!!!
what the heck? I *don't* have the number, but I'm very interested to know what's going on with you Sundae, please hang in there. |
Popdigr gave away my great-great-great-grandfather's eyeglasses. Yes, the gold-rimmed ones, with the silver case.
|
Why did he go and do that?
|
Beats the shit outta me.
Now I'm pissed again. But, they're his to give away, I have no say in the matter. I would like to have had them after he was gone, though. |
Please let us know how you're doing, Sundae.

Grav, my Nana did that. Started giving stuff away to whoever she thought might like it. some people got pretty annoyed at the unequal distribution of goods. haha
My Aunt is doing the same thing, although mostly it's to me and my cousin (her daughter). She thinks she might die, so she keeps saying she's trying to sort everything out and get it cleaned up so we don't have to do it when she's gone. I think a lot of older people do stuff like that. Seems pretty common. No less annoying if it's something special to you though. Perhaps it's time to mention the things you'd like him not to give away because they're significant to you, even if they have no monetary value. |
