I have 3 daughters who I love very much. I get to speak to them every Sunday night - thats if I ring them. They seem very pre-occupied with everything and forget about those around them that care very much... A sign of the times I spose :(
Right now - I am going to ring them again.
At 25 I'd been married 3 years (still together). I'd moved from Sydney to Moree at 20 for my job and never went back home to live. Got married whilst living in Ceduna, moved to Carnarvon, then back to Penrith and into our own home when I was 24 (and Elisabeth 23) - paid it off before I was 30.Quote:

Its HER ithday not yours, think about visiting her:mad:Quote:

Of the remaining 5 sisters, I've only spoken to one about twice in the past 3 years. I'm not sure I even have most of their addresses or phone nos. I certainly wouldn't recognise their kids and I don't know the names of most of them.

I see alot of the guys I went to school with doing this, EASY LIVING.
I'm 18 and working full time. Living at home and paying rent. Own loan for the Disco.
I have a brother and sister in Darwin who I speak to a few times a week, my younger sis lives between me and ma and pa and we see each other fairly regularly, my dad would hang us if he thought we were neglecting our family members by not talking, dad only has rule know matter where u are in the world u come home for xmas day, I have had 39 xmas days with my family, though we alternate the actual time either lunch or dinner as we have the in laws to please as well, I have cousins I havent seen from birth and Elle Macpherson is a third cousin though I have never met her my older sister and elle share some features, blood is thicker then water I guess
She is too transient dont even know where she is living at the moment..and on top of that I cant find the phuck you smiley Icon:twisted:Quote:
