Anyway, I wanted to let her know that I will still fix Thanksgiving Dinner this year if anyone wants to come. I have fixed it for the last 5 years. Her brother is from Atlanta, Georgia and now that my in-laws have passed, he only comes home for his family reunion in October. Very doubtful we'll see much of him ever again. Hubby's sister and brother live out of state and never came home anyway nor do they call or communicate. His sister is too into her money and his brother is too into himself. His half-sister is a severe alcoholic and we haven't heard from her since her mother's passing.

There is just no family left on my husband's side and no one seems to care. It makes me so sad to think or rather know that we'll most likely never be ALL together again. It just kind of hit me today and really upset me.

Aww Janet that is sad, that happens with a lot of families once the parents have passed the siblings don't keep in touch. Everyone seems involved in their own lives these days. I can't say that for I have the opposite, some of my family gets to involved sometimes it's not good. They mean well but sometimes I have to draw the line as to what to tell them about things.. My hubby's side of family I see here and there... I just bother with his sister and her family.

Your a good person Janet its there lost..
