**THE FOLLOWING POST MIGHT JUST SEE AN EXPLOSION OF A PERSON’S HEAD, MINE

This is a bold faced lie! This trying to talk to family members about my dad while writing his story has been painful to say the least. Mind you they are in Texas and I am in Australia. I have been trying to get in touch with one of my Youngest Aunts on my dads direct bloodline. How hard can that be you might ask well most people don’t like getting calls from someone they don’t know much less when that call comes from a number that is not listed or is not available.

In four days I have called over 20 times just to talk to my Aunt. She does not check her messages and she tells us so on the message. She asks me to Text her….Yeah right not going to pay for international texting to say “Hey please pickup the phone it’s your brothers kid.” (Yes i know I did not say Niece or Nephew. That part of the family has no clue and I am not about to tell them all).

So then I call my dad and tell him hey here is your sister’s number would you mind calling her and telling her I am trying to call. Then since my dad is NOT tech savy I had to send my son in the US my email address so he could give it to my dad so my dad can have someone scan and send me the much needed Military information.

ARGH! WHAT WAS I THINKING WRITING MY DAD’S STORY WAS GOING TO BE SIMPLE!
