no.383 150518 Thank you for the home alone night

I sometimes wonder if my family loves me or not. Last Sunday for mother's day dinner, my parents and my sister went out for a "family" dinner without me. Well, I understand because they knew that I was coming home late because of a meeting. Plus I told them to go first, and I was hoping that I would meet them there. Unfortunately, by the time I was done, they were finished and were on their way home.  And today, I was busy with another meeting after the service and on my way home, I received a text message from my sister saying that they are in Niagara Falls. Okay… fine. I probably wouldn't have gone anyway, but how can they not even tell me that they were going away?! I asked when they were heading home and the one and only response I got was "we are watching fireworks." Great. 

It may seem like I'm complaining, but I'm actually glad that I am home alone tonight. From time to time, I definitely feel the need to have this time. Sundays are always tiring… and if I want to make it for the picnic tomorrow, I must go to bed soon!
