BLOOMING CRAB APPLES

I'm not sure if, it's the changing of the seasons or what. Possibly, the time change, or it's just me. However, everyone in my family, seems to be very crabby lately. They all have something to complain about. No one, has anything pleasant to say. It has become, very depressing to listen to. From work, to vacation, to finances, to school. All of which are understandable reasons. I'm the only one around here, who trys to keep a positive attitude.

This is why, I'm starting to think that, I'm the reason that they are all crabby. There is only about three people, who aren't in a bad mood lately. Those people are, my brother, my Aunt, and my best friend. Who knows, maybe they are not grouchy because, they don't live with me. One can see why, one could get a complex from, all of this negative treatment. I suggested to my husband that, I should call my mother's Doctor regarding her attitude. He says that, "she's just old." Well, I don't buy it.

From past family history, other relatives have claimed that, my Grandmother was this way too. I'm talking about, my Mother's Mother. Maybe, she just genetically predestined to be critical. Although, I don't want to feel this way about her. I want to have a good relationship with her for, her remaining years. I do want to miss her, when she's gone. My Dad doesn't seem to be this way. How he has put up with her, for over 50 years is, beyond me.

She is so very spoiled though. He traded in his fairly new truck, and bought her a 2003 Cadilac yesterday. She is so obviously ticked off at me, about vacation that, she didn't even tell me about it. I had to hear about it from my brother. He says that, "he's turing into the favorite." No little brother, you've got about 30 years of cathing up to do. So... good luck on that one big boy! So... I'm going to try to avoid, any further negative energy from them today. Either that or, move to Italy. Bye ya'll.
