The last time I lived with you was when you were 9. I wasn't even a part of the family when you were 15 because I was in NY, so those dynamics have little to do with me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1383788668719956565.post-68255135723876889342009-11-05T08:41:05.817-08:002009-11-05T08:41:05.817-08:00Husband not going is not the reason I'm depriving myself of going.
