Good god! How the hell do you remember everyone's birthdays/anniversaries? Who do you just stiff at christmas?
I got lucky. Its just me my bro and sis. Their ugly kids + my mom and dad. Only the kids get presents and after 16 they get to buy their own damned presents. (This policy encourages them to get a job) |

its just me (no siblings) my mom, stepdad, and my daughter.

I come from a big family too. My parents have been married since '72, have 7 children, and 14 grandkids.
Dad's got 10 siblings, all have between 1 and 7 kids each. His dad died when I was 5 and his mom remarried when I was 13. My step grandfather had 15 kids too, all married with tons of kids. Mom has 9 siblings and none have less than 2 kids, the biggest being us at 7 kids total. Christmas is a bloody nightmare. |

Nope, not a very big family..many are dead and many I have nothing to do with because their low energy, hypocrites. My sons are my family..and my brother is pretty cool. Sisters are all hags, moms a b!tch.

Sisters are all hags, moms a b!tch. lol im laughing for you said your sisters are all nags.. thats my older sister i had her help me for awhile with my house work for when i had my heart valve replacment 5yrs ago i had a limit of things i could do and my mom help for awhile and then i had my sister come in.. that was a bad mistake all she did was nag and complain about things my own daughter was doing with my grandkids and i told my daughter. and she cant even stand my sister which i dont blame her. any how i ended up firing my older sister i couldnt deal with the stress and she was saying she couldnt deal with it. omg she started the crap... so now i have a friend of mine come in and help me every so often.. so i only deal with my older sister when i need to for she my son care provider during the week when my mom is at work...so i call and see how he doing and im there on the weekends for my son |

Gosh darn.... geeze that sounds like my dads side of the family when my parents got divorced 33yrs ago no one knew how or what we had been doing and about 6-7yrs ago my dad had a email with a number of peoples emails and i had ask about one and he said that was marks email so i added him and to find out it was his wife i had not seen him for 30yrs or so and he came down from washington and i spent a week with him and his family. so have some contact now on my dads side but not as much... when my stepmom died 2yrs ago my dad one sister came down from utah and i had not seen her sense i was 6yrs old (yea thats a long time) |

wow!! i forgot they all only put a pic of their car.... this is the third one i clicked on...... I will come rite out and be honest. I just got done doing a 30 month sentence on a drug charge. I am clean and sober and doing life the rite way. I gave up on most of my old friends and am looking to find new positive people. After being incarcerated for a few I am ready to get out and do some good clean fun. This is going to be a most awesome summer. Life is great and getting better. I am a teddybear at heart. Positive attitude. All around great guy. E-mail back. Put "Life is good." In the title line and please send a picture. Thanks Lonnie |
