Apologies, I've been on travel and I came home to visitors. Both of those are good things but they impinge on my ability to grind out pages. Anyway, I hope that you haven't had any nuclear facilities near you shelled by artillery lately.
WHY is Donna putting up with this bullshit?
She makes her own money and neither Naomi nor Don is really doing anything FOR her, financially or even emotionally (at least, not in a POSITIVE way)...
Naomi is a bigger pain in the ass than a barbed wire buttplug and Don is... unhinged.
I (theoretically) understand the bonds of DNA and familial loyalty, and I have seen many an otherwise rational person put up with all manner of soul-twisting chicanery from neglect to abuse with an exasperated hand-wave and a "but he's my BROTHER" or "I HAVE to put up with her, she's my MOM"..
But, speaking as one who cut my own corrupted DNA loose as soon as I was old enough to throw two middle fingers and muddle through this crazy-ass dumpster fire of a Life On Planet Dumb without backup, (and I am by NO means "strong" or "bad-ass, or any of that) I simply do not understand why anyone, particularly a ruthless, quick-witted ball-buster like Donna Panks, would let these two butt-berets run roughshod all over her nerves like they do without some wicked-ass, fava-beans-&-a-nice-chianti level VENGEANCE!!
Donna got tired of spending $$$/month on her dad's retirement/nursing home, so she moved him in.
With all the "content created" by Naomi , et al, it should cover the mortgage, taxes, utilities, and upkeep (gardening, snow removal, house cleaning, tech upgrades).
IS Naomi ponying up her financial contribution and in a timely manner, though?
I hope so for her sake!
With all the aggravation she and Don are causing, I'd hate to see Donna get fed up and go all "Bitch Betta Have My Money" on her ass.
No. On second thought, I think that's exactly what I wanna see!
Donna Don't suggest a 3 way.

... but that's just me, I guess.
(and that's a fair point, I might have a proxy ask that question directly... Jen would be the obvious choice)
