Such a sad situation with family members that make life difficult huh? If only we could choose our family as well as our friends

And FWIW - you know my thread about the Aunty/Auntie dilemma? She hasn't been informed that Miss M even exists - and she lives about 20 minutes away from me - the closest relative I have to my house!! But after getting blown up by text messages about my sister not thanking her for the flowers she brought to the funeral of my sister's stillborn - she's not that much of a loss in my life.

Life is too short to deal with selfish, MEAN, ignorant people that you wouldn't bother peeing on if they were on fire. Why should we have to deal with their crap because they are family - you wouldn't if they were a friend
