Family matters.
I'm feeling a bit strange at the moment. I've had an odd day overall- it was nice because of the sunny weather and the pleasant laziness and this, but it was also not so nice because of all the family goss I've somehow come to learn about all in one day. I dunno how that happened, but it's sort of stressed me out, and now I feel a bit eh.

I get what you mean about the family stuff, it's always confronting to find out that things aren't as perfect as they can seem sometimes.
Incidentally, that's almost exactly how I felt when my uncle (who just passed away) was diagnosed with cancer.
After his funeral, I found out that his wife, my aunt used to be one of Mum's biggest bullies when they were younger. I was all WHAT?!

Yeah, I guess unknowingly I had always looked up to them as a good example of a relationship, so it is quite confronting. There was another divorce in my family just last year with whom I also thought were 'perfect' in that way, so bleh, I dunno what to think anymore.
Yeah, I can imagine it being much the same as that. It's more shock than grief, really.
Gah, I know right?! There's just some things that are seen as ~common knowledge~ in the family, but that is always neglected to be told to the kids until it's times like these. Mum was telling me stuff about my uncle that were huge and I'd never heard before and I'm all oh ok then?! XD
