Whenever someone says you and your family what pops in my mind. My family: my sister, my brothers and parents. WRONG. Apparently they do not come under the definition of family.

When I am entitled to something, for example, you and your family have won a weekend stay at our hotel. OK, I’m thinking, yeah my sister and I will have FUN. Where do I shove my little brothers, they will want to bring their friends but NO that can’t happen there is barely enough space for us, I’ll give them some slack their friends can come over but not sleep over I must make that clear …, then suddenly your bubble is burst and what they meant was your husband and children!!!! But I’m not married thus you mean I have no family!! But ma’am you can come and others would have to pay!! No thank you, that takes the point out of a free prize doesn’t it?? Even when working most benefits and promotions include you and your family, again they meant your non-existent spouse and un-harvested children eggs. So why don’t they give us the option to select our family members? Wouldn’t that be fair to all married and non-married? Even married couples, who says their spouses will be part of everything that is offered to their other half, maybe their sister or brother will like to come along on a free trip or join a health club at half price.

In the end, here I am waiting for my family aka Mr. Right and unborn children to enjoy whatever is coming my way because apparently now I am family-less.
