I am the only one slightly craving autumn already? I mean, I’ve had a few nice days here recently, and with a slight hint of cold crisp air. Makes my heart happy.

My sister is just waiting for beach weather, I swear she always thinking of tanning and showing off her body. She’s planning on moving this year to Florida or the Carolinas. Not sure she’s told Dad yet; I feel like she’s going to try to sneak it by him.

She has a new friend these days, Marrisa, and her brother, too. They’re always doing random stuff she’s not normally doing, so I’m sure they have something to do with her plans. Oh well, it’s not my problem.

My aunt, however, is driving me up the wall these days. She’s been penny-pinching in a way that Scrooge himself would be amazed at. She gave me a lamp about 3 months ago, and yesterday she came up to me and asked me if I was going to keep using it or what?… The question completely threw me, I asked her what she meant.

She told me that I hadn’t bought the lamp off her, so really, I was only using it until I bought my own. So, she wanted it back or I needed to pay up. Like what the heck?!??

I know she’s not hurting for money, my dad is over all of her accounts. And he’d be the first to say something was wrong, because he’d be planning how to help her out.

So I don’t understand this new attitude of hers. She hit my sister up for her parking in her driveway a couple times a week, she got my mom for the chicken she cooked Monday night for dinner. “Feeding your lot” she said. Boy that turned my moms switch.

My mom spent all last night complaining about my aunts money habits, and how whenever they do something for her she never pays them back. They always have to remind her multiple times, and then when she final pays them back she acts like its beneath her and they’re dirt for asking for it back.

It’s just so odd.
