Thanks for listening to my call of the day podcast. You can hear my live radio program Monday through Friday from 2 to 5 p.m. Eastern time on Sirius XM.

0:10.0

Triumph 111. Rena, welcome to the program.

0:13.0

Oh my goodness. This is such an honor. I have to start off by calling.

0:18.0

I think if this is such an hour and my favorite thing is common sense isn't common.

0:26.0

And then I added to that and tell you to talk to Dr. Laura. Do you like that? I like that. Thank you.

0:33.0

Yeah. It's true though. It's so true. Sometimes I'm listening and I'm like, oh my God, she's brilliant.

0:39.0

So I need your brilliance because I already accepted half of it.

0:42.0

And I stopped talking to my sister, older sister two months ago and blocked her phone calls and I blocked her text.

0:53.0

Why? Why? Oh, so really, oh my goodness. She's the most negative and I'm not over exaggerating person I've ever met in my life.

1:03.0

And I am the most positive person I've ever met and I can't take the negative negativity and the constant telling me how I'm doing something wrong or somebody like, for example, she had me replacement surgery. I had it.

1:19.0

This is a quick example. She would ask me about my physical therapy and I would tell her how long you in there for.

1:26.0

I said about 45 minutes to an hour. No, no, no, you need to ask them for more or she'll say, once the next time you see your surgeon, no, you need to call him and tell him that you needed blah, blah, blah.

1:36.0

So we have a, um, a middle sister that passed away seven years ago from competition. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Whoa, wait a minute before we go on.

1:47.0

You know, there are ways to handle people who are a little bossy and annoying. Why did you feel a need to block her?

1:59.0

Because of a text I received from her, um, telling, accusing me. I have it in front of me. Um, I was.

2:07.0

Okay, why don't you just just ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, you've been maimed. Just read it to me rather than telling me what you, you know, just read it. Go ahead.

2:23.0

I never, ever, ever say anything to anyone about and she used our late sister's name. You say personal things to everyone and family stuff that you should.

2:32.0

I don't know how that doesn't bother you. It's none of anyone's blank business. And that, um, goes to everyone. God only knows what you say to your roommates and sorority sisters. They probably know everything from A to C.

2:45.0

I think it's disgusting. Do you really think people care about your personal business? I don't say blank anyone. I trust no one and everyone blah, blah, blah.

2:55.0

Everyone, my reply. If you want to hear it.

3:00.0

Can you tell me what came before you tell me what came before that? I mean, I don't understand what set up that what, what set or tell me read before that.

3:12.0

Um, it's a situation, a little situation. I was at the dog park with my dog and she was on the phone with me on speaker.
