So my Bompa called me today for the 3rd time in my entire life. He had recently sent Bella an outfit, and being that he has only called me 3 times, I don't need to express my surprise that he sent us a gift. I had made it my number one priority to sent him a thank you card when I received the cute outfit. He must have just gotten the card today, because it was the reason for his call. He proceeded to tell me that I had left his new wives name off the card and that I had really hurt her feelings. This is a woman that I have really never had a conversation with in the last 15 years of my life. Not that I did not give her the chance, she just does not talk. I am sure she could not point me out in a line up, or for that fact even knows my name. Keep this in mind, I did not put his name (or hers) on the card, I had however addressed it to "Bompa". I guess that was my mistake. Did I mention that when he called, he introduced himself as "Larry" (he included his last name too, but I don't feel it necessary to say it on this blog). No, not "hi, this is Bompa", it was "Hi, this is Larry". I guess that is where I rank in his life. It really makes me sad. It is not that growing up we did not have a relationship, my family lived with him when I was a little girl. We were always at his house for family events, he was very much a part of my life. Now he is a stranger, and I am just a person to whom he says "this is Larry".
