It has been a week.

And I’ve been asked, “How has it been? Are the family dynamics still intact?”

Define, “intact”! Do you mean, “Does Ralph still reign supreme, even in his absence?”, or are you thinking, “Has Max totally taken over the family, with little input from his late brother’s sister and his own little brother?” Or perhaps you are just thinking, “Have Mac and Richard totally lost control of their tiny house and the animals that live there?”

Umm… the answers are “yes”, “yes” and “yes”.

I’d write more, but Max has just called a family meeting and Richard isn’t here. I want to make sure there is at least one human voice heard. And there could be critical votes.
