My brother makes me SICK

YUP! You got it Ladies and Gentlemen... yet another venting blog of complaints!

So my brother broke down his car- TOTALED it by driving it without ANY oil for who knows how long, who knows how far... has to suck since he hasn't even had the car a year and prob put $3000 into it... oh well, lessons learned right? That was last Friday hubs had to go save him an hour from home broke down on the side of the road and it literally took up the whole evening!
So his prom is this weekend and he wants to use MY car. MY PAID OFF ok-decent car... did I mention PAID OFF and still in good working condition. What about my lil not all that responsible brother wanting to borrow my car on PROM NIGHT make me head ring of sirens and flashing lights and warning flags? So my immediate answer no way on earth! Then my secondary answer with a $500 deposit that he would get ALL back after my cars safe return (to cover my insurance sdeductible when he screws up royally)... do you get the picture I am really not comfortable with this plan AT ALL! Anyhow after MUCH co-orsing and hubs being a softy, and attatching a GPS to my car so we could watch EXACTLY where he is and confirming EVERYTHING with my parents even forcing check in phone calls we agree. I worked Friday 12-8, Marko took me to work and sometime that afternoon gave MY keys over to Joe to use the car for the night... That was where MARKO MESSED UP! He didn't just give lil bro my car key he gives him my WHOLE SERT of keys. After I get off Friday I pretty much go straight to bed as I have to be at work at 5am Saturday. So comes morning... Marko is still up on the computer. Tony had just went to bed at 3am, one hour earlier... in attempts to allow Marko to sleep in as well. Jayna went to bed around midnight. As I prepare to leave I frantically realize my keys are NOT where I left them! And ask Marko top which he replied he gave them to Joe... cut to the chase... lil bro's phone is off; have to wake both kids get in the van and follow the GPS to where our car is. In the process call mom who finds the phone number of this house. We call the house talk to Joe ask him WHERE ARE MY KEYS as I have to open my store in 15 minutes. We are.23 miles from the car when he says I left them at home and SPECIFICALLY csays they are on a certain shelf at moms... like he KNEW that is where they are... although he claimed to have looked in the car while on the phone with me... and THEN magically remembered EXACTLY where he left them at mom's. So we turn around to go to mom's... it is now 5 or so til 5... I am suppose to open my store at 5. We get to dad's a lil after 5.. we search the hopuse til 5:15 when we call him back at the place... MARKO talked to him this time. He specificallt told him to check in the doors and the middle console as that is where Marko had told him to put my keys so they wouldn't get lost. Joe however was certain he left them at mom's. Marko told him to meet us at Burger King. I tried calling all my manager's to borrow keys to the store- with no luck! Luckily Marko was thinking and we drove to wehere my one manager lives... I had to wake her (I felt sooooooo BAD ABOUT THAT!) BUT i GOT KEYS. weE DROVE TO bk AND i GOT THERE AT 5:33AM. lUCKILY MY OTHER TWO OPENERS WERE KIND AND WAITED AROUND FOR ME!! I got my babies a drink at BK and Joe pulls up with my car. Marko goes to it and opens the door and SUPRISE my keys are RIGHT THEREso it is OBVIOUS Joe never looked. I WAS TICKED!! lUCKILY THANKS TO SOME HARD FAST QUICK WORK WE OPENED THE STORE RIGHT AT 6AM!! But we WERE WAY BEHIND IN OUR PREP DUTIES AND WE STRUGGLED FOR THAT AS WE ALSO HAD TWO CALL INS! My poor kids got like NO sleep and Tony was sleeping when I got off work at 4pm. Jay got up at 3! They wouldn't go to sleep for Marko for a while when they got back home as they were at that point awake in the car 1.5 hours! Moral of the story...Never let ANYONE borrow your car or else you'll pay for it in the long run... not to mention he never refilled the gas he used!
