It's been a rough month for my family. Three aunts gone in the past month. One of my dad's sisters and two of my mom's. The two ladies in the middle of the picture are my mom's sisters Donna and Gayla. They were both major parts of my life both growing up and adulthood. Not being able to afford to go home at times like this really brings me down a level or two. The past two years has been rough on me in general.
