IT seems that if any calling in my family is done, it is me that calls. IF any visiting is done, it is me that pays the bills to fly to the East coast, rent a car, do all the driving to and fro...I have two grown sons who say they love me...yet it is always me that flies to see them, it is always me who flies to see my grandkid, it is always me who does everything to keep in touch. IF I stop calling, I will get a call in about 6 months to see if anything is wrong. I have lived here for 12 years, and in that time, I have recieve exactly one visit from my sons (each). It has suddenly dawned on me that just perhaps, family contact is not nearly as important to them as it is to me. All my life, I have been the one who does the calling...my parents, my kids, my grandchild. IT has always been me who does the flying, etc. And, truthfully, I am feeling tired of all of it. My kids make plenty of money, and have a bank of excuses why they cannot do this, that, or anything but what suits them.
