Shit's all sorts of different now.

My family? In particular, my grandfather's side of the family? Full of JACKASSES.

My grandmother calls my uncle Bob to see how my Aunt Nelda (Gr-Grandma's sister) is doing. Uncle Bob tells about her going into the hospital and then makes the comment, "Yeah...she's the last one." My grandmother thought she misunderstood and says, "What about Elsie?"(the other remaining sister). Uncle Bob says, "She died. A month ago."

WTF?

Nobody called any of our family. None of em. Uncle Bob's kids all knew - one of em was a pallbearer. They just figured we couldn't be bothered to show up for the funeral.

Jack. Asses.

wow. and I am vaguely irritated that we get calls saying DH's parents are in the hospital, but once they improve, no one bothers to call. but your family wins.

Mind you, I love winning, but "Jackhole Family of the Year" is one title I was hoping to avoid.

Too late.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

WTF? That's insane. Sorry, Aimee.

Thanks, Jesse. I'm upset about her being gone, but truth to tell, I had only ever seen her/spent time with her a few times, but the fact that noone bothered to tell my mom or grandmother just pisses me off. Almost like they think that because my Grandfather passed away, the rest of us could give a shit.

Right, because people never form actual relationships with their in-laws...
