Thanks Weng and Purple Parrot.
P.P.: Lotta questions there...let's see...I have 3 sisters, so that makes 4 of us in all. No brothers. I'm the baby. My oldest sister died 3 years ago so now there are only 3 of us left. My dad is in a VA nursing home in upper Wisconsin and I don't see him much but I try to call him at least once a week. I get along okay with #3 sister, but I hold some resentments toward her because of the way she acts (long story).
No...no inheritances. We grew up almost dirt poor and that's probably how we will all die. My dad did give me my mom's "Show house" or "Movie house" china that my mom and dad collected in the mid 1900's every time they went to a movie. I gave that to my oldest daughter when she got married. My dad also gave me my mom's jade jewelry box with what was left after my other sisters got into it, which was just costume jewelry.
My sisters would say that I was the favorite because I was the baby, but I think that my #3 sister was the favorite because she was always like a baby and then she got really mentally ill (which I think a lot of it is brought on by her). But I am almost positive that my girls were the favorite grandchildren. Now that I think about it, mom could be angry because I got divorced. She really liked my ex, and I remember that when my one sister got divorced, my mom didnââ¬â¢t talk to her for years. But my mom was already dead when I got divorced, so I donââ¬â¢t really know if that is it or not.
So all in all, Iââ¬â¢m still in the dark. My mom wasnââ¬â¢t a petty person and she always forgave. Regarding my one sister who she was angry at for divorcing, well my mom and that sister never really got along anyway. My sister is a hard person to like because of her personality, and even I didnââ¬â¢t have much to do with her until my oldest sister died 3 years ago. That was when I decided to bury old resentments and make peace. Now that sister and I have a pretty good relationship ââ¬â better than I ever had with her before, but that is also because she told me that she is finally looking at me as an adult instead of the ââ¬Ëbaby.ââ¬â¢ (Geezââ¬Â¦itââ¬â¢s about timeââ¬Â¦Iââ¬â¢m only 50 years old!)
Anyway, Iââ¬â¢m gonna close this for now. Have to get ready for the seminar. Talk to you all later.
