seems to be the theme today isn't it! anyhow... it's my sister *sigh* what else is new there? she's about the most selfish person i know. the plan was to have easter monday dinner at mom's, then a b'day dinner for mom during the week. mom's b'day is in may but this is the only time all 3 of us siters are in town until the summer... however, this sister isn't coming for easter, or until thursday night. so much for the plans (which she knew about) i also asked her for some pics. of mom and her kids etc. for me to make a book with for mom's b'day. we don't have a ton of money here to buy gifts, but this is what i CAN do. sister thought this was a bad idea, she'd perfer everyone scrap their own pages for mom, i told her i wanted it looking great and co-herent in colour etc., but she said i could just tell her the colour to use. she doesn't get it. i feel like the only thing i have to give is being sabotaged. maybe this all sounds petty. i dunno any more. i feel like the one thing i have that is mine is being torn from me!

Robin,
Families can be really difficult. I don't think you're being petty at all; it doesn't seem like to o much to ask that you get to create a gift you thought of the way you want to. If I was your sister I would really appreciate that you were willing to go to the effort. I can really understand how you feel. So scrap away, use all your creativity and produce something beautiful. Might look better without pictures of your sister. Big Grin
