My bro and Mrs came to visit me last week and it was just brilliant to see them both. Really brilliant. We laugh like hell and I love them both to bits.
No drama or snide remarks. No walking on eggshells. I’ve gradually lost a sister in the last couple of years yet gained so much more in family since.
I have a little peep sometimes at sis and the tard’s facebook. Him proudly stamping his profile pic with the Palestinian flag and her feeding lots of cats. Her latest project in life. Spending large amounts of time and effort on something that albeit kind, in the grand scheme of things is nothing in comparison to being involved in the lives of your children and grandchild. Almost comical if it wasn’t so tragic. I often wonder what goes on in her head. If her thoughts stray over to the UK and her family that she left behind for the want of something better to do than getting a job and paying her own way.
I very much doubt it.
