Live, Laugh & Love Books discussion

How well do you get along with your family? The question is simple. Just say what you want to, nothing more than you feel comfortable with.

Lets see. I can only say that our family is very close. We live together. My mom is in the last stages of her life having emphysema and my sister lost her house due to foreclosure a few years ago (it was due to a mortgage scam) so we now have 8 people under one roof. It's a tight fit but we all pitch in and help out. Nothing is great all the time and sure we have our arguments but nothing major. It's more like who left their laundry in the bathroom and can you wash your own dish type of thing. We are a happy family and we love and care about each other very much. I am there for my family when I can be if it's financial or emotional and vice versa. This is just how we were raised. We take care of one another. I love my mom and I'm happy to have her everyday. I love my sister, brother-in-law, and my nephews and niece. They are my life. There is little alone time in our house but frankly I wouldn't know what to do with myself if it was too quiet.

My family is very close. We all get together several times a year for big dinner parties, and of course the holidays are always spent getting together.
