My Sister RANT!

[Kathy2015]

So, my sister and I made a date for Sunday morning to get some cleaning done for baby's arrival. She was coming at 10 am.
As most of you know, trying to sleep solid while pregnant is like looking for ice water in hell. So I'm up and down all hours. I slept in. My ten yr old came to tell me Aunt Carol was here. I got up, realized I had slept in and was totally prepared to apologize (10:30 am). My daughter asked to let her in and I said yes. (My children are not allowed to open the door for anyone AT ALL if I am sleeping.) My sister comes barging through the door yelling at me. She called twice and text once within 2 hours of showing up and I did not answer. What if I died in my sleep?!! Why can't my children open the door for her?!!  Totally fit to be tied, freaking out. I explained there's nothing wrong with me. There's no reason to worry about such a thing. She slammed the door and went home.
Now, my sister, bless her wonderful heart, was worried about me. That makes me feel loved. However, she barges her hind end into everything. She would run right over here every time I was in the bathroom and didn't answer the phone if I let her think this was okay behavior. If I don't agree with her ideas on something either she lets me know I hurt her feelings or she just goes and does it without my permission. I have repeatedly told her she is not in control of my household but being 20 years older than me she just thinks she's right and keeps it up. I may be the baby of the family but I am not a baby. I'm 35 freaken years old!

Give her some time to cool down. I have a younger sister and she tells me that I always think my way is the right way. So I do have to catch myself and try to back off sometimes but we always work it out. Just be patient, and make sure you communicate with her. She is just looking out for you.

Omg she has older sister syndrome but it's so much worse for you because she's 20 yrs older lol

Don't feel bad for sleeping in. I know she's worried, but it sounds like she over reacted a bit. My sister is the opposite. She will not have anything to do with me unless she needs something. When she does come around she tries to boss me around and tell me what I should or shouldn't do. My best friend is my sister. She's the one that had always been there. Give your sister time to calm down and then talk to her about it.
