For those not familar with my life these past few years I'll fill you in. My brothers and cousins that I grew up with were pro my ex husband who abused me. Okay, when I was with my ex everything was cool and we'd get together but as soon as I left my ex my family quickly dropped out of my life. My family was more trouble when I was just about totally alone for a whole year until I made new freinds. Then when my ex passed a year ago they all; well lets just say I haven't seen my family in over a year. No cards, no mail, no calls, nothing.

I do not work so I had very little. I had called my one brother in town a couple of months ago and metioned the lawsuit where I should come into some money. About 2 weeks ago a friend of my family who was at my friend's place got on the phone and asked me a bunch of nosey questions. Well, it took me awhile but I realized that this friend of my family was fishing for facts that are in my favor to get the money. The one brother I called a couple of months ago, well that was a mistake to call him. So back 2 weeks ago when the friend of my family got all in my business I told myself my family will try to get back into my life. Sure enough, I got a card today from one such cousin whom I haven't heard from in two years.

If someone would have told me that people are like my family I would not believed them many years ago. I was naive. They smell that money and now that I'm happy and content they think they will wiggle back into my life. Wrong! I went through a living hell for 2 years and they dropped me like a hot potato. So now I will ingore them.
