Yes. That's a good point. I refuse to go off at her or let her know that I think she is acting badly. I think she's leaving it to me to call her again. I'm afraid that might be a head game. I call her, and she acts cold and aloof. I won't set myself up for that. One time, she went a year without calling me. Then suddenly she called and was friendly.

She has two adult daughters, my nieces. Neither of them put even a Facebook note to say, "Hope you feel better, Auntie." One of them was in trouble some years back with a felony charge. I wired her several hundred dollars, so she wouldn't have to go to jail. I told her it was a gift.

I guess it's good to know where I stand with them. I'll just accept that now.
