My sister-in-law’s “friend” attempted to hide a robust criminal history and the ability to pathologically lie from all of us, and that stopped almost as soon as it had started because I was clever enough to catch on to some of the things he said… and his arrest which he accidentally caught on FaceTime when some of us were on it. Because I didn’t want this person to use my sister-in-law for things like any of the money he could get on her, I had a few talks with her about it that her boyfriend signed on to agreeing that she needed someone to watch out for her preventing her from potentially being fleeced by this person for whatever she could provide him. This resulted in almost all of her friends dropping him not wanting anything to do with him…
I’m fine with that. I am less fine having to deal with people like this. I don’t like that people like this exist.
I also took James to the local hospital for the first time because a bee had stung him in the ear, it began to swell, Benadryl alone was not substantially bringing the swelling down and it was upsetting him. The local hospital surprisingly got us in and out in just over an hour, taking him back to a provider as soon as he presented and seeing him amazingly quickly. They also managed to maneuver him to where he could be given the steroid shot he needed with minimal fuss from him, and he follows up with his doctor later today.
