I suppose that if you asked me this question many years ago, I would give you a very long list..a list of things about myself that I would like to change..essentially..there is none now..
I am always looking to improve and change the way I spend time with family. I would add more quality time with children and spouse, more green outings, more family dinners. I would prefer myself to be more patient and understanding with my child.
Spend more time together doing fun things. When we get time together, we always seem to stay at home doing very little.
My one side has a few people who would rather never see each other. As a result, I have a grandmother, some aunts and uncles and a number of cousins (I don't even know the exact number) that not only have I never met, but I don't even know their names. It's really sad, especially because I love genealogy but no one seems to know much about them. I'd like to meet them one day and overall just have the "silent feud" stop.
