His Remarks
Dear Reader,
Something I noticed today that I wanted to talk about..
If I’m doing some house work, my grandpa always feels the need to basically diminish what I’m doing by making shitty comments to me.
Like yesterday, I had to babysit. I live in a five person household, so I have to do the dishes daily. Well, I didn’t get finished running around after the baby, and her family until from 6 in the morning to 8-9 in the evening. I had to fix myself something to eat, and by that time, I was exhausted. I didn’t feel like doing dishes.
Today when I got up, I didn’t get to eat breakfast because we were out of everything. So, i fed the dogs, and got ready to go grocery shopping.
We went to town, and we spent most the day doing that.
So by the time I got home, and I put away all the groceries, I was tired, and hungry.. so I made myself something to eat, and afterwards I started washing the dishes. Because I wanted to get that done before I had to start dinner.
My grandpa asks me from the living room what I’m doing.
And I say, “I’m washing the dishes.”
And so he responds. “You should have already had that done.” in the most shitty way.
And I got so fucking mad, because I had it up to here already, and I was busy all day yesterday and today, and I’m not the only person in this house who uses the dishes..
That comment he made stuck with me, and I realized that, he does this all the time, but I never actually addressed it in my head until today.
If I take the dogs out: “about time.” Or “bet that’s the first time they’ve been out today.”
He says shit like this to me all the time about everything I do, even if I do a great job, he feels like he just has to knock me down a peg.
He complains about everything, and won’t do a damn thing for himself.
And it really pisses me off that I wait on him hand and foot all day every day, i thanklessly put up with all of their crap, and neither of them appreciate anything I do, or even credit me for it.
Because when they’re mad at us, they never fail to mention that “Sincerely Me helps out, but it’s not that much. It ain’t nothing really.”
And sometimes he’ll just flat out say shit like “you know what? Y’all really don’t care about these dogs.” And I remember one time he was talking with my aunt, and he said “these kids don’t do anything. All three of them are just useless.” And I shot them both a look, because it instantly pissed me off, and I stormed off to my room.
I remember I was even about to cry, and write about it in my old diary, and my aunt came to my door and told me to come back into the living room. She made him apologize, and he might have actually been sorry, but he meant it when he said what he said. When he makes these comments, he actually genuinely believes what he’s saying to be true.
Now I understand why I get so frustrated with him.. because not only does he call for me all day long, even when I’m busy, and won’t help himself, he makes these comments when I do something almost every day intentionally to hurt my feelings, and diminish my work. And then when I snap back at him, and tell him to fuck off basically, he gets all pissy and says how much of a smartass I am..
Next time he does it I might just tell him off, and point all of this out.
Sincerely,
Unappreciated
