I hope that the FB plan works out well for everyone

1) The FB thing didn't work.

=-=
2) Sis and I then started a group text that the boys ignored.

=-=
3) Then brother number 1 sent a group text about whatever b.s. he is up to
and admonished me not to text back at 4:00 in the morning.
And sis reminded brother number 1 to stop texting at 9:00 p.m. due to
brother number 2 wanting to sleep.

=-=
<<Sis and I either have the phone sounds off at night or keep the phones far from where we are sleeping.>>

The brothers apparently sleep with the phones near their ears.
=-=
SO WE ARE BACK TO WHAT WE WERE DOING WITH BROTHER NUMBER 1
BEING IN CHARGE OF COMMUNICATIONS.

I am sorry for the messed up communication....sounds frustrating.

I wish that the FB thing had worked out for you

I personally hate group texts, so if I don't want to deal with them, I'll shut the sound off on my phone, and read them when I'm awake/free/in the mood unless something significant is going on. I don't know why brother #1 can't do that. Maybe you should just take him off the group text list...

My sister's and I leave each other messages on group messages if they
are something we need to know. Its been working very well.

We were originally working on getting dates that we could work on
mom's house. Well then we did dates for the christmas gathering.
Next we left each other important things, like when a member of
our family was sick or hurt.

Like I left a message and prayer request, because I couldn't put
on internet that they pray for Will, they requested updates to
that. And when my sis Dee & husband Walt got hit from behind
the other night by my SIster Karla's Daughter Samantha's ex boyfriend.
She left that on there. HEehee,

ANd the responses, but its giving us lots more information than we
got before. I'm sure hoping we continue this, we know its not necessary
to respond right away.

Three of us happily call each other to talk on the telephone but Brother #1 does not call.
He works on the Tugboat 24 hours a day unless they are home on shore.

He sort of sleeps in rotating sailor shifts -- sleeping a shift and then working
a certain number of hours/shifts >>I HAVE NO IDEA.


And if he is in a different time zone, I would have even less of an idea of when
he efffing sleeps.



'So over this.
FINISHED.

S- that sounds complicated and very frustrating. I can't blame you for wanting to at least take a break. Let someone else come up with a plan. You've put enough time and energy into trying to make everyone happy

Donna,

That is great.

I am happy to hear that this works for you and your sisters.
