Comments on: All This Bickering… http://www.1048sunset.com/2008/04/05/all-this-bickering/ The Pagan & Polhemus "Blended Family" Meets Here Sat, 20 Nov 2010 09:23:01 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.2 hourly 1 By: bill http://www.1048sunset.com/2008/04/05/all-this-bickering/comment-page-1/#comment-987 bill Mon, 07 Apr 2008 01:06:59 +0000 http://www.1048sunset.com/2008/04/05/all-this-bickering/#comment-987 Carmen, I hope I didn't offend you by any of this. I have a history of offending where none was intended (sounds like someone else we know). Consider this: What if you were to hear that one of our very large, extended family had passed away suddenly. Would you have feelings of regret in the way that you had interacted - or failed to interact - with that person? I think the fewer regrets we can leave behind when this life is over, the better. Right now, I'm afraid I've amassed a large pile of them. Carmen, I hope I didn’t offend you by any of this. I have a history of offending where none was intended (sounds like someone else we know).

Right now, I’m afraid I’ve amassed a large pile of them.

If you and I weren't active in the church things would be alot different. We would probably get to see our children more and things would just be different, but Satan works on the children of Active Parents and that is just the way it is. The thing God wants the most from us is that we just stay active and things will work out right. I love this reading and it goes for you as well as me http://www.philosophyforlife.com/mc31.htm Bill I want to tell you something I know.

I feel so awful for you because of the treatment that you're receiving from your two daughters. There's no reason for it. None whatsoever. i suppose they don't see it that way, but they will see it some day, and I hope it won't be too late to say, "I'm really sorry, Dad." I treated my father awful, and i'm going to have to wait until I can fall down at his feet in the next life to beg his forgiveness, and tell him how deeply sorry I am for my treatment of him. How on earth could I have treated my father in that manner is beyond me. Sure, i know he doesn't want me to continue to beat myself up over it, but it's just so difficult not to. I loved him so much, and just failed to show him at the last minute. I hope your girls don't wait until the last minute.

Nevertheless, they are with us. Probably, Danny and Rose should be invited.

Remember, Alex will be there, and Pop and Mimi were our parents. All of you are their descendants. We would like for that to be recognized. I just got my yearly invitation to the "Jacobs Reunion." I get one every year, and all of you are naturally invited, because you are the natural descendants of Wilson Jacobs. I forget the genealogy, that is (how far back he goes), but the reunion is for his descendants. This year it's being held at the Lake Park Civic Center off highway 41, in Lake Park, Georgia. We got a map, and a Time Line from Saturday June 14 to Sunday June 13 (it only lasts for one day and night). Avalable Lodging is listed. Anyway...it's very organized. It has been going on for thirty years. It's very simple, and the budget from last ;year was just total expenditures of $210.00 and a deficit of $90.00, which they paid off by selling some fudge and cook books. It would appear that we plan something a lot more elaborate, but that's because we want a lot of time together. Times to remember. They had Committees. Recreation...Fun events for adults and children Genealotgy Committee....Someone to keep up with the framily genealogy and photographs. Video Recordings. That sounds alright with me, Bill.
