big sister
I was talking to my oldest sister yesterday, and I am upset about the conversation. "T" and I have always been the closest between the 4 of us, she was the one I always went to with my problems. After talking to her, I guess it seemed like we didn't connect anymore. We are all going home for a wedding in June, and we  had talked about our travel plans and where we all are going to stay when we get there. I was thinking about staying at the lake house and was going to extend the invitation to her family, since we both have school aged kids, and the other 2 sisters have infants. Well, "T" jumps in and curtly says that she and "S" have already claimed it. OK, thats fine, but than she goes in on how she guesses that we can stay there with her, as long as she has a bed (like I would ask her give up a bed, there is 3 of them plus the fold away). After talking about the lake house for a little while, we started talking about our travel arrangements. My family and I are driving to ND from TX, "T" and "S" with there families are flying in from MA, while "D" and her family are driving from WY. We chose not to fly because it is just to expensive. Both my husband and I are security officers, on an hourly wage we make enough to get by, but still live from paycheck to paycheck. "T" was going on and on about how it's not that expensive to fly, that she can afford to go when she wants, and making me feel belittled. I dont know, maybe I am just reading more into it than there is. Its been almost 2 years since I have seen any of my family, and Im probably just being aprehensive because I want to go back and be all "look at me, im doing just fine" so I dont get the pity look that I was so use to before I moved away 5 years ago.

hey...its just those inhibitions are something you have to get through with.a long time away from family obviously gets a little weird as remember People Evolve.and your sister while describing her plans maybe didnt realise that you might take it on urself.and about the flight plans and its cost...maybe she was just convincing herself!!! think bout it...tc
