@MoodyB: Man your situation reminds me a lot of my mother side of the family. Funny though she was born wealthy but her fam is very chaotic. Every since we move to Canada my mother was mostly closed off to her relatives and siblings (she has a lot and she's the youngest) The last drama I heard is some relatives are fighting over which land to own back home. Heck even me and my twin brother own some land which I don't really give a damn about. I'm fortunate enough not to be tangled in that mess since I was very young when we moved away to another country, but I know well enough to see that her upbringing has traumatized her until this day... goes to show that money can bring the worst to people.
Ugh I can relate that xD
I do hope you get a new computer soon! The only tech issues I have often are my tablet and stylus... My laptop fortunately has not given up to me yet, hopefully I didn't jinx that lol
