    Long time no talk to.....How you been?

    I spent both holidays with my family in Florida.  I desperately needed to be with them and all of their crazy ways.  My mother's siblings aren't really close - not like my siblings and I are.  They are really distant from each other although they live relatively close to each other.  We did the big family dinner for Thanksgiving and Christmas and everyone had such a good time.  Everyone was jovial and polite and not one argument ensued over any little thing.  It was great to be around all of them.  They are an unstable group, I must admit, but it was good to see family outside the other typical gatherings, specifically funerals.  Of course, Jasmin was the star of the show.

    Char's birthday was really hard for me.  I visited her family during Thanksgiving and Christmas.  My family circle has grown to include Dannie's and Char's.  I went to see her resting place with her mom and brother.  We planted poinsettias for the holiday.  Dannie's birthday was not as bad as Char's.   There are a lot of firsts I've yet to experience.  I miss them dearly.  I designed a tattoo to commemorate their lives.  I'll show you later.
