[quote=Anonymous]Update.

As expected, sibling yelled at me after personal organizers arrived to assess our situation.

They did not like how I spoke. They did not like the deadline I set.

They said they could get stuff done in four weeks and then said maybe they could not and would have to check. Tory could not commit to a date, but they have a new phone with a calendar right there…They try to slide out of sticking to a schedule.

Other fun situation after clearing out house for four hours:

Sibling had taken parent’s tax forms home even though I’m the one who does the taxes. When I asked for them, they said, “Are you going to give me back the bag of books?”

They do not like it when I throw out trash. Mostly the bag had old cpap tubes, magazines, and few of those “Chicken Soul” type books.

They left these magazine and books spread all over the floor and I bagged them up to clear a path for the visitors.

One late night, I drove with them to the dumpster to drop trash. They did not expect that, but it was late and it seemed safer to go. They said they could not throw away the trash because it wasn’t the right kind of trash. They made a big show of reading the sign and saying they had better not leave it after all.

Boy, a hoarder will twist themselves up in knots.

I’m exhausted. I am not sure how I will get through this.
