when i was a kid a relative suggested i write letters . i wroote letters . no one in fam wrote back relative said blah bla and i pointed out that u didnt write back. sad same relative suggested phone calls . no one returned phone calls . first letters . then phone calls after that emails
now this relative is on a kick of having us checking in on email. hem its almost always me who seems to be doing the dialing.
had a long talk w my late mom about this and she said " its just as easy for the person on the other end to dial." i seem to be talking more to strangers than family. but this is my du fam. thanks
