Sibling Drama - Followup December 29, 2004 - 1:15 a.m. Shock of shocks... He apologized for upsetting me!! I was so worried that he would respond with more guilt ridden words -- instead, I end up getting an apology and understanding. And even some appreciation for what I've done. Had I not written my ranty email to him, and told him just how it made me feel, then I wouldn't have received that. If I'd reacted how I usually do, then I would have stewed in silence while holding a grudge for his remarks and implications. He's never apologized for being 'harsh'. And I guess it's because I never pointed out that it hurt. I'm glad I did this time, because I feel much better hearing that from him. Also, it let him know just what I'm putting up with and that I am, in fact, helping her as much as I can. - - In other news, my AIM account magically started working again. So I'm back to using the greyflowers screen name. Yippy. I've compiled my customary Christmas list - just waiting for my Mom to show up and exchange gifts, so that I can add those. She claims that it will happen this year.
