my moms side of the family is large and i never see them,but my dads side is small and i love every minute I get to spend with them,there are about 10 of us in total,its nice
I was the youngest grandkid and always hated the get togethers when I was young. Who wants to be the baby at all the outings? Still to this day I try not to participate in any large get togethers of any form. I like one on one get togethers, they are way more personal.
I have five brothers and sisters and they each have a sig other and anywhere from 1 to 4 kids and then I have 3 grandkids, my mom and some times my aunt...that is my "close family" and considered a small family gathering It is crazy and noisy and between the dogs and the kids you can't take two steps without steping on someone...I love it!
it gets boring to hear the same shit year after year. None of these people ever do anything.
So I just act like I don't do anything either. Makes life interesting. If I talk too much they just ask me for money....that's why I am on EF right now...avoidance.
Thinking of perhaps a Christmas taco, if I can find a place to get one.
