It's kind of sad. I don't know what issues you are having. On my side mine walked out when I was nine. Didn't see or hear from her till I walked on a bus at 16 and she was there. Tried more then a few times to develop a relationship. Just never seemed to work. I hope you can find some common ground.

Im done trying to find common ground. I've tried. She threw a fit cause I said we couldn't make Christmas at her place because my wife's family was doing theirs at that time and let's face it, my wife's side is fat more involved with my kids then my mother. So we skip my wifes side and go to my moms. This all was arranged a month out. Show up, she has one, 3 dollar present for my daughter, my nephew, the one in mentioned earlier, over 20 and a value if close to a grand. Ever had to explain to a 2 yr old they didn't do anything wrong for Santa to get a single gift a ******* PEZ candy dispenser and why her 3 yr old cousin got a 1000 dollars worth of gifts and opened them all in front of her?

I don't care what she does to me, and maybe I'm being greedy but I'd at least think she'd treat them equally.

Fairness is a requirement, not an option. Asking for fairness isn't being greedy.

She sounds a lot my Mother was, the best thing you can do is disconnect. The relationship is toxic to you and your family and there is no reason to endure it.

Sounds like your's and mine could be sisters. Sorry.

Saw my first PEZ dispenser when I was 7yrs old in 1965 Austria, Probably way before anybody in America saw one. Wish I still had some o dem around.
Probably worth a Mint !! See what I did there ??

Thanks mitch. That made me laugh. Sorry to whine and vent to you all it just frustrating as hell. Today she took the entire family including my grandparents , my brother and his kid, his girlfriend and her kid and my sister to a theme park, didn't even bother to invite me or my kids. And for no reason. Then she had the nerve to text me and ask what my 6 month old sons name is........ cause she forgot

Thunderstorms rolled through here around 5 pm with heavy rain and it dropped the temperature...for a little while. Now it's seriously steamy outside, 83°/75% humidity and climbing. I thought it was humid earlier today but now it's just an absolute sauna. All the windows in the house have condensation on the outside.

Storms passed us no rain just strong wind actually cool out. I did all the plants the wife wanted put in. Time to grab a shower and sit back and watch the new Star Trek movie.

My Father's 80th birthday was today. Although with his Alzheimer's, he really doesn't know it's his birthday...but any day that you get cake, ice cream and presents is a good day!

those are pretty hard to find because people throw them away or something ...then on the flip side hardly anyone is looking for them because they are for 75 and 6 only and people don't usually save these later but so beautiful cars LOL

the 70-4 ones with the flower are re-popped but you cant get a re-pop without the flower. I guess one could cut the flower off but probably wouldn't happen

If you cut of the flower, it would be missing the dot above the "I" I have both flowers and none. PM me with shipping info if you want it still..
