re: #235 Slumbering Behemoth

My mom was adopted. It wasn’t until I was 14 that I learned that my maternal grandparents weren’t blood related. I was never given reason to think otherwise. They treated me as if I were. The revelation changed nothing for me, even at that age of general teenage turmoil.

They say blood is thicker than water. I say love is thicker still.

That is perfect…It’s not easy when a family starts off with a 12 yr. old who lived in foster homes..It must have been hell cause it took them another 6 yrs. to adopt my little brother…I was a hand full.. I knew when I was a little kid instantly if you were an asshole or cool..I knew being in a room with you for 2 minutes..I knew then..I know now..
I guess me and my brother are rich now..My dad invested in mineral and oil rights in ND since the 70’s..We go see this mineral rights lawyer monday
to review the leases. I knew the folks were well off living in Napa Valley but come on…Land leases in ND? Dad was really smart…I may retire to the Lake house and manage land leases…I didn’t see this coming…
