Today was my father's 70th birthday. The majority of us got together and ate a Metropolitan. I'd never heard of it. The food and service were ok. I'm probably lucky my father's still around. 70's getting pretty close to the average life expectancy. I know quite a few people who don't have their parents anymore. So I'm thankful for that.
I'm also glad I got to see my brothers. I don't get to see them all that often anymore.
My mother brought up the desire to make a field trip to see my sister in NJ. There's all sorts of drama involved there, and my mother and sister haven't spoken in over a year. But my mother seems to be the one reaching out. Hopefully their relationship can be repaired. But I think some personal growth needs to happen at some point in there (mostly on my sister's side).
