Hello! I need some input, My brother is constantly complaining about me not doing this or that and I have finally had enough. I jotted this done this morning and I would like to know if it is too harsh! Some history; he has been in for some time know almost 8 years, so he nows whats up... When he is angry with me instead of writting me which he rarely does he tells someone else to bit*h at me or something! So please read this and tell me if it is too much! Thanks!
Here it is sorry so long:
Hello brother,

How are you? I am fine! Well, I heard you were bitching about me for not writing you so I am writting, but get ready it’s going to be an earful!

First, if you wanted me to write you, wouldn’t it be easier for you too WRITE ME and say hey drop me a line! It would seem to be more logically then the approach you are taking now!! Second, contrary to what you may believe I lead a really busy and hectic life… Since I am in a bitchy mood right now and you want a letter I am going to kill two birds with one stone-so to speak- and vent to you!

Let me tell you how my days go… ready: I wake up at 7. Get ready for work, get the boys ready, and leave the house before 8. Drop the boys off at school, head to work were I stay till 5 (no lunch). Pick up the boys, its close to 5:30 by now, do what I have to do on the way home: groceries, clothes, gas, what have you. Fight with the season traffic I’m lucky if I making it home by 7-which is dark- walk my dog, feed Kenny’s dog (Ringo), let the cat out. Closer to 8 by now, get dinner in the oven, pick up the clutter from the morning, give the kids a bath, eat dinner, read the kids their books, pop in a DVD, tuck them in… Do dishes, find the cat, and my dog… by now its usually 10, hop on the treadmill to do my nightly workout, 45 minutes later the DVD I put in 2 hours ago is over and the boys are now asking why they have to go to bed and can they watch another, I jump off the treadmill laugh as the cat tries to jump on (really happens she attacks my feet) argue with the kids till finally one of us wins (usually them) tuck them in once again… Now to the shower but first I must let the dog out… In the shower I realize I forgot to chain the door… Oh shit what if the kids open it… Out of the shower I go shampoo in my eyes, run into the treadmill I hadn’t put up yet… Aw. Aw. Damn… Lock the door, try to see the kids with out them seeing me (very difficult) curse at the treadmill, eyes burning like hell, Back in the shower which is now cold because my water heater sucks!!!! 15 minutes later I climb out of the shower through a shirt on (and other necessities) check on the boys once again, they are now a sleep turn off the light, glimpse at the clock 11:15 curse to myself they are never going to get up in the morning! Out to the garage I go laundry in tow… Where on the way there I must watch every step because my dogs believe he can dig to china or water or which ever comes first! 11:30 I go to the couch pop in a movie and wait for the love of life to get home so I can hear about his day for 15 minutes until I can no longer keep my eyes open and he has to carry me to bed!!! Yep you guess it… Catch 7 hours of sleep and start all over… Oh, wait there is more on weekends I work graveyards Friday then go to my day job on Saturday mornings till 3 get the boys try to bribe them into letting me taking a nap. 10 pm and its back to work till 6!! My only day off is Sunday which if I am lucky I get to sleep till 1 pm!! WHEW, I feel better!!

Now tell me where I can fit in anything else!! I am not saying I don’t have time for you I am just asking for a little slack or pity or something, come on!!

I did make your daughters year this year with $300 worth of present and just sent yet another for her Birthday and you didn’t even send me a fucking card!! I am not asking you to kiss my ass because I do believe one of us (our family) should have been doing this all along but I was never old enough or stable and now I am so I will continue but come on!!!

I am going to go now I feel better and I hope I didn’t make you feel bad that was not the purpose just needed to vent a little! I hope you write me back if not I will write you again…

As I send this out I am sending 100 dollars as well. I tried to western union it but I have to know the code city or something what is that?

I love you…. Talk to you soon!

Your sis Kimberly

Whatcha think? Thanks to all who read it!

Kim,

I think your letter is to the Point. If he get's upset it's not you,
You are just 1 person doing everything. And I know after he read's your letter he will understand. You are a Great Lady, and i hope he starts to write and tell you to write from now on and not have other's do it for him and try to make you feel like a heel. You wrote a Wonderful letter!!!!
My Hat is off to you Sweetie. :D :thumbsup: :fb: :fb: :yay: :yay: :wave: So mail it like it is. Good Job. Hugs To You

Kimberly-I agree with momhurting- I think it's a wonderful letter- you described a typical day in your incredibly busy life with humor. Hopefully it will make him think next time before complaining about you not writing/doing enough! You do sound like an amazing woman- very generous, and extremely supportive so please send it and let us know how he responds.

I applaud you. Very nice letter. I think that he will get the hint. Sometimes they "forget" how busy out here we can get. Goodl luck.

:D Thanks guys! I have never talked to him that way-cussing- but I am just tired of it... He is spoiled and doesn't know it. We all send him money and cards for his kids and I take care of his daughter (with gifts)... He just complains to much....or maybe I am just grumpy today! Thanks again!

Whew!!! I'm tired just from reading about your day! I don't think they quite understand everything we go through out here but I think your brother is about to get a reality chec! Good letter.
