This is best off posted in the blog.
I am becoming more convinced that my father simply enjoys doing everything to piss me off, and make my life more difficult.
He is still refusing to sell or give me back the $3300 in jewelry that he rifled when he was down here, basically lying to me that he would take it, sell it, and give me the proceeds, which is only right, considering that these are my mom's posessions, and I'm her son.
As I've mentioned, I've been cleaning the apartment, throwing my mom's things in outer trash bags. I've made great progress, with the only things really left to do being my room, and a little bit in the den, with the den being impeded by the sheer amount of bags that are cluttering the living room.
My father advised me to find an excavation service for the purpose of removing the bags. My driver told me that he knows a guy who could help me. Today, the gentleman came up to the apartment, and was astonished by the sheer number and amount of bags and stuff I have. The job isnt even done, because I cant get into the den.
The guy told me that he will need up to three other men to help him, with the project taking about six hours. He quoted me a price of up to $600. Originally, my father had said he would pay for it, only appro-po considering all the jewelry he took, and the thousands I didnt get paid for it. . When my father heard the price, he went ballistic, calling it "outrageous". What the hell does he expect me to do? Haul the bags down to the dumpster myself?
I made an appointment with the hauler for Wednesday afternoon. I'm severely pissed at my father. He is the ultimate hypocrite. First he rifles jewelry worth thousands that he promised to pay me for. Then he tells me to get q quote for the removal of items, which he will pay for. Now, he balks, leaving me with a bill.
If this shit continues, I'm seriously tempted to start finding antique shops, and selling things behind his back to just raise cash. My feeling is that his intent is for me to spend every last dime I have, while he antes up nothing, so that I can be as penniless as possible. The joke of it is that this is all my money to begin with.. The jewelry is mine, as are all the posessions.
If he doesnt ante up, and soon, I'm going to begin selling things. I dont know why he's pulling this shit. I think it is just to be in control, and piss me off. My mom, may she rest in peace, never did anything like this. We always discussed financial and business decisions together, and if she promised to make a sale, or come up with money for something, she always did it, no hassles, no aggravation.
Once again, I will never feel the same about him as I did about my mom. He just isnt capable of not doing things to push me.
