My older sister is coming in 2 days....:Ohno:....spending 5 days!...:roll:....inasmuch as I'll be happy to see her after many years, she's a "clean freak"....and I'm practicality even scrubbing the walls....

She and I used to fight like cats & dogs...dunno how this visit is gonna end...but hoping for the best...On a more serious note, she is 74...so...I'm hoping :giggle:...her hair pulling days are long past...:lol:

Been looking around for my "tightest" girdle...and my long blonde wigs....where did I put those Victoria Secret Push-Up Bras?.....Sibling rivalry at it's best!...She's a 'red-head', and I a blonde....or at least we used to be....
 
I guess I'm lucky--my only sibling is a brother so we don't compete. :giggle:

I hope your visit goes well. :)
 
Hope it will go so well. I believe it will be, i have a large relative family, and notice when they get older and older that they give up fighting or complaining for some reasons. I hope your sister already gave up and move on, and just be polite to you but hope both of you have good times. what is your plan ? do you have to take her to somewhere or sit in your house for the whole 5 days??

You guys just know how it is when you're the only deafie in the family...so the rest of 'em tell you what to do....:giggle:...

Of course we won't sit in my house for 5 days....I'll take her out to eat and of course "bargain shopping"...and downtown to the Landing if it's warm enuf...and of course, she hasn't seen my boys for a very long time, so we will be visiting them also.

Am expecting some "sadness" also, as it might be the last time to see her since she's old...But feel she's in better health than I am!...:giggle:....all the more to pull my hair out if I do or say something to piss her off!...

My Grandma lived to be 91. Please don't say that 74 is old!!
 
Good luck with that visit. I understand your feelings. Some of my relatives stress me out too!

Wow, different hair colors. If she is or was a red head, then she might be Irish as red head have a lot of tempers. The emotion are different than the blond. Red - get all hyper and furious Blond - calm and just want to have fun. That is my way of thinking how I look at this.

At her age, I think she will be fine but she will probably be fussy or bicker with you. Just words of getting back to you. I don't know. A lot can change after 13 years of not seeing her. She may become calm and not bicker anymore. Just tell us how she is doing when she come to visit you.

I hope the relationship is at peace with each other. Good luck. **hug** :)

If they are full blood related sisters, then they're either both Irish or not at all. :P
 
My mom and her family were full of redheads but they weren't Irish, and they were very laid back personalities.

I guess I was watching too much movies about Irish who had red hair for their temperment. I suppose they were label if we don't think that is not the case. I did not know your family are not Irish and had red hair. No temperment. Cool. I learn something in this. Thank you, Reba. :)

I'm sure there are some hot-headed redheads; it's just not a guarantee. :)

I had cousins with red hair and they are Jewish. Your hair color does not affect your personality unless you use too much bleach in your hair. LOL!!
