I wrote a letter to my father awhile back nothing unusual I write him all the time since he never bothers to tell me when he gets phone lines put in and what not. I usually write him every now and then telling him whats up, mostly for me cause at this point I have no remaining inkling that he cares. He only cares when we are in person and since that happens only every half decade or so he doesnt have to care much.
But this letter was a little different cause I was asking for something from him. Which has never in my life ever ever happened so it was new. I was not asking for money even though he owes me near 1000 dollars. I was not asking for him to send me a birthday or Christmas present since he hasn't given me anything even a card on any birthday or holiday since I was 8. The only thing I wanted from him was information. I have been feeling really blue since I have been working hard on my Step fathers family tree for his aunt. I have always been bugged about how I know absolutely nothing about my father or his family. and I suppose that I should consider it a miracle that I got to meet my fathers mother at all even if they did wait to let me meet her when I was 14. But I don't have pictures or anything and I would love them. Or just a list of names. I know my fathers father is still alive. I would ask him and not bother my father but I don't know where he is. I only have a name. not even an age or middle initial. So I wrote my dad a note. just asking for names. photos anything that I would pay for any postage. I even wrote him how important it was to me. Not that I am surprised that I have heard nothing almost a month later but it still eats at me.
