Hi guys:
 
I just wanted to thank you all for your help with my family (for lack of a better word, lol) issue. 
I did confront the situation and thanks to all of you I was very glad "for myself" on how I did it.  I picked up to containers of coffee and sat in the park with my (4legged) kiddies and my brother and during our chat I was able to tactfully insert my feelings.  This will probably take time to filter through "him" but for me it was an "opprtunity

 " to face some old angry feelings and minimize their impact on me.  
Not that I see these people in any better light but I do see them "clearly" for what they are

 , lol. 
Thanks again so much
