the cordell holidays

Nov 25, 2004 16:13

well nothing is new in the cordell family.. My mother is in one of her psycho moods and she's taking it out on montana. she hates me once again b/c i'm not giving her money to get out of the hole....

1st off i don't mind helping and i would if i didn't have bills out to my ass right now.. The truth is i have alot of debt i need to take care of that first.. Anyway, she wants 700 dollars from me b/c she thinks i owe her at least that much since she took care of me when i lived with her or whatever...

needless to say she told montana that since i can't help them out montana won't be able to celebrate any holidays anymore b/c i left them without anything.... So no thanksgiving, no christmas, no nothing.. B/c of big sister.... B/c i left them with so many bills and i can't even help them out....

MOntana can't visit grandma and grandpa b/c they're on my side, so appreantly they don't love them anymore.....

Sometimes i want to strangle my mother.
this is one of those times.

To make my day even better my grandpa cooks;
-deer steak
-fried chicken
-baked turkey
-10lbs of mashed potatoes
-coleslaw
-salad
-develed eggs
-pumpkin pie
-apple pie
-homemade rolls
-stuffing

and who shows up to eat all this???? me and my uncle Gene.......
and that's my family....
This is the family who has 8 brother's and sister's, it's the family with about 17 grandkids and 4 greatgrandkids... and out of all of us only 2 show... how pathetic.

My grandpa was perhaps on the verge of tears and my uncle Gene just prayed and thanked the Lord that we were all there.... I sat and ate in silence questioning where our family had gone and why no one was here.... LAst year was better... last year people came to eat my grandpa's food... And this year there was no one.

My grandpa always sings when he's cooking and i love that about him...
I wonder if anyone else in my family will remember that when he's gone.
I wonder if they realize this maybe the last big meal he ever cooks..
I wonder if my family even realized what this did to him...
and most of all I wonder why they don't care.

so this is what i have to be thankful for....
