So apparently Mom got sent home on Friday, although he hasn't called me yet. Her last call was for me to pay her phone bill because the person doing her bills for her screwed up. There is a reason that I have an account that I dump money in to so I can pay some of mom's bills.
Mom never was very good with money, but doesn't want my sister to take over her finances because my sister has very different priorities and is very controlling. My sister never had to budget for herself while poor - she married the son of rich folks, never lived on her own except in the dorms at college, never had to chose between food, utilities and transportation. So she just doesn't understand the juggling act. Mom never involved her in the money decisions when my sister lived with her.
