I did send a note via FB messenger saying I was sorry, that I should’ve reached out directly to him via FB since I didn’t have his cell. But I had reached out to cousin S and my parents have been in contact with his mom. Gave him my cell and also asked if FB messenger was the best way to be in touch. Haven’t heard back yet. I am going to call my aunt this morning too.
I would never have said anything accusatory. I just wanted to find a way to say I have been in touch, just not with him. But in the end, it’s not important.
If you're going to send a Facebook message, just state that you've been reaching out to your cousin S, and using your parents to contact his parents for updates. You wanted to get ahold of him, but didn't have his contact info other than through FB. Drop anything accusatory out of the message. Don't be defensive, and don't give him too much (any, hopefully) reason to lash out, though he might need to lash out due to all the stress. If he does, try not to take it too personally.
Stressful situations cause people to say and do uncharacteristic things.
You’re smarter than I give you credit for. agreed with this.
Good Evening Lodge! Been off the grid for a bit. Feels nice.
People say a lot of things when they are feeling out of control- agree with the others. And why is it your responsibility to be in contact? Most of the time family members set up an email tree or phone tree to keep people up to date.
But let's be real...There are 40 some other teams and only two alaskan teams...the day one of us wins something big will be the day I transfer to UAA

Not to brag too much, but we finally have AC. I fixed the thermostat myself. We had a complete overall of our heat and AC system over the winter. We installed the Nest thermostat after the system was installed and while the heat worked fine, we haven't had luck with the AC running correctly. After a customer service call with Nest, a few visits by our HVAC guys (who hate Nests), emailing with a Nest Pro, and 2 fights with the husband, I resorted to "When tech crap doesn't work 101" and did a hard factory reset on the thermostat. Now the AC works perfectly.
Holiday Slowdown, my arse. Got whupped today. Thankfully, we pulled every resource and favor we had to get through the day.
Supposed to hit 105 Heat Index tomorrow. Fun times.
Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

You go girl!
Just got down to 30 emails (was >300). RFAlph I got yours. Will try to get to it in the next day or 2.
dad les did the DNA thing he got for Christmas. Opted out of who is related. Only wanted to know where he was from. 80% Scandinavian, 8 % England/Scotland Wales, the rest mutt- Western Europe. His Mum was Swede but his Dad was supposedly Old England and Scot. Not sure what the point was to do if not to see about relations.
