December is finally here. Where's the cold weather?

                         

     The weather here is starting to feel more like fall.  Maybe
     we will get to winter by January.  LOL

     My brother called my parents yesterday to see if they
     had heard from his oldest daughter.  Long story when it
     comes to the oldest, well, long story with 2 of his 3 kids.
     Anyway dad tells him he really needs to come see mom 
     (with the way her mind is and everything).  Brother dear
     says he can't afford to come (he lives about an hour or
     so away).  ::insert string of curse words that would make
     a sailor blush::  Makes me so mad.  Any other time he would
     say yeah I'll come but you gotta give me gas money or
     money for something or another.  But since it's mom's
     health?????  ::insert string of curse words that would make
     a sailor blush::

     Of course I shouldn't be shocked.  Brother's wife is a
     total ::insert string of curse words that would make
     a sailor blush::  also.  When her mother was dying of cancer
     she wouldn't go visit her because if she did she "would have
     to clean her mom's house". ::insert string of curse words    
     that would make a sailor blush::  SIL didn't go to her mom's
     funeral either.  She was afraid of what the family might
     say to her.  ::insert string of curse words that would make
     a sailor blush:: If it was my mom I would have went to
     clean the house and gone to the funeral and whatever
     any family members had to say they would have to say it
     on the floor through missing teeth.  I mean really!

     When mom fell and hurt her him the brother did come for
     a visit.  And left with $300.  So I guess we know why he
     came to see his sick mom.

     Brother dear makes so me mad.  If I had my way he
     wouldn't even know when mom and/or dad passes.  And
     as often as he changes his phone number he may not hear.
     My dad has brother's phone number tucked away some-
     where but I don't know what it is.  I don't want to know it.

     Oldest niece is going crazy.  Friday or Saturday morning 
     the police showed up at her place and arrested her boy-
     friend.  I'm missing some details (she spoke to mom) but
     I do know that the boyfriend is supposedly an illegal.  Now
     I don't know if that is why he was arrested or not.  But
     I'm guessing it could be reason enough for him not to
     be able to come back home.  He'll be sent home to Mexico
     I'm guessing.  Niece is really upset.  This guy isn't good for
     her - reguardless if he is Mexican or American - he is 
     trouble, that's the only kind of men she seems to be
    attracted to.

     Guess that's it.  Hope you can read the text over this
      really cute background.
