[QUOTE="rockridgecattle, post: 674519, member: 6198"] i guess i am frustrated that my family has money to burn and spend and travel, and they tell me they can not come to the farm (they be city folk) cause they have no money and are too busy. They feel it is easier for me and hubby to go there cause we have no kids, just cows and bees and off farm work. Nothing important. For them it is 9-5, vacation pay, nice homes, kids, hockey, ballet, soccer, tournaments everywhere, and i farm so i have time cause i am self employeed. And summers off cause i drive school bus as well. Kinda got a little P.O'ed at my one brother about 3 weeks ago. He was telling me he bought some beef from the store. I asked him, did you finish the beef we sold you already (at Christmas). No, we gave the rest away. I don't like meat in the freezer over 3 months old. Thankfully he gave it to one of the brothers going through a hard time and working 2 jobs trying to pay child suppport and be a part time daddy....him i have no problems with not coming cause right now he is trying to make ends meet. (we gave him some meat at Christmas). But the other two brothers...make good coin and spend $ like there is no tomorrow. Kids want for nothing. One of the brothers felt so guilty at leaving his first child at the other brothers for a few days cause the day home daycare was not available and they both worked. He and his wife walked into Toys "r"Us and said buy anything you want...to a three year old...twice. They took her to the dentist the other time. back to the meat thing...our meat was grass fed, no hormones, never had a calf, not even 18 months old...maybe close and well below store price. And they traded it in for store bought meat..at three months I am thankful I have meat in the freezer...lol The they have the audacity to ask when am i coming home for a visit! Any ways Jo, there is my rant...sleep did not help...lol [/QUOTE]
