My family is twisted, crazy, and somewhat f*cked up. I remember the years where holidays were huge family get togethers. We had a huge gathering at my dads house, the big, fun, wild family reunion. And then there was my moms gathering. Lots of chatting, gifts(mostly the coolest thrift shop stuff). But now? I rarely see any of my family. With all the divorces, deaths, and family BS no one really talks. It's all a big blame game. It'd be nice to go one year without having the holidays turn into a WWF match. Luckily, I was blessed with an amazing man and two awesome daughters, so we do our own thing! Even if it isn't turkey and gravy, we have an awesome time. I'm not really worried about holidays,except Halloween, but I just wish my girls would've gotten to see/meet some of my family in good times. They see their grandfather(my dad) maybe once a year, because his girlfriend isn't keen on us visiting and taking the attention away from her and her children. And as for grandma, well she's got more shit in her schedule than the president. Maybe I'm whining, but do any of you ever miss your family? Even with all the bad shit, don't you ever just want a hug? Or for one phone call asking how you and the family are?
And for those of you saying,"the phone goes both ways," trust me, I make calls, they just don't get returned.
That's my ramble for today! Xoxo 💋
