Cindy sent me an e-mail today telling me that my nephew Camron scored a goal in his first soccer game. His team won 6-3 tonight. Her existence in my life the past couple of months has definitely made it more enjoyable ( Read more... )

*hugs*

I heard a good quote once...
Genetics load the gun....environment pulls the trigger.

Good luck....keep on trying with Tonya. The game is more important than the score...right? Hang in there..cuz if it's worth it..it's gotta be tough.

everybody is different hon. Perhaps, Tonya doesn't put that much effort into other areas of her life as well.

You're right, she doesn't. She's an extremely caring and thoughtful person...just doesn't care or think much about me.

I rarely have anything to do with my brothers, either. It's not that I don't love them, it's just that I don't want anything to do with them. They remind me of a time in my life that I'd rather move past. If either of them wanted a kidney from me, I'd say yes without thinking. If they wanted to have lunch with me, there's a 50/50 chance I'd say no. Maybe when we're old.

You're lucky to share blood, but not baggage, with someone. Well, maybe not *lucky.* But it's a gift. I enjoy reading your posts as you get to know your half-sister.

sweetie, you know my whole family story now. all i can say is, even though they're "family" it doesn't mean they are worth keeping in our lives. people are people, we're all different beings. I get along better with people I met 5 years ago than my own brothers that I grew up with.

Yup, I do know what you mean. It just feels good to let it out every now and then. I could have written about the goal and score, but the impact of the e-mail needed to be addressed.

It's the little things, Leslie. I just felt really good when I got home and read that e-mail. Really good.

Me too! Me too! Hectic week...I haven't spent much time online. How is the new job treating you? I'm sure you posted about it, but I'm once again on the fly...tell me all the gory details.
