My parents do not live in this country. My father is an author who writes about his homeland of Australia. my mom was born in Ireland. I have been to Australia and Ireland and I like both. I like Ireland more than Australia. My parents live in another country.  I enjoy travelling but don't get to see my parents as often as I'd like.
I look after my parents alot. I am considering buying travel tickets for my parents. I have 4 brothers and 3 sisters. I am the oldest child in my family. They are not able to help take care of our parents as much. I am 4 foot 9. My beard itches. I enjoyed bowling at a party. I like reading. I have never visited Australia. I know very little about Ireland. I live with my parents who need extra care. I have a doctor's appointment coming up next weekend. I have brothers and sisters who live nearby. I love my parents and want to look after them. I want to travel more.
Do you have any plans to visit your parents soon?  It'll be a while until I can go on vacation - let me live through you haha! Well they wanted to have a bit of a getaway of their own, but I'm so worried about them that I think I'll need to drop by to make sure. I don't blame you.  It's a shame your siblings can't help out more with them, but it's great that you take such good care of looking out for them.  I wish I could see my parents a lot more often. Well they're very busy with college, jobs, and such, but I hope they'll have time to look after them more soon. It seems like you're in the same boat as them. What do you do that keeps you from traveling much? I'm a prison guard.  I only get 2 weeks of vacation a year.  I didn't get one last year, but maybe later this year, I'll finally get to go see them. Ah, yeah I can see that definitely making things difficult. I wonder if they'd be able to visit you. It's probably quite a plane ride, but it's got to be worth it if they get to see you. Yeah, it's not like you can just go to Australia for the weekend, unless you  own your own jet! haha.  Well, I keep asking them to come, but they are usually going back and forth between Australia and Ireland.  They forget about me sometimes, I think! They must really be free spirits. I bet they'd be stopping by all the time if they had grandchildren to go see. Well, my mom started writing about Ireland now, so they made a deal they'd spend 6 months in Australia, and 6 months in Ireland so they could get their research done.   You are probably right!  I think they'd love to have grandkids, and tell them all their stories. Yeah, my parents keep bugging me about grandchildren all the time. All of the others are so busy that they don't think they'll have them anytime soon. Every few days they're either trying to set me up with someone or asking about my love life. It can get pretty exhausting. Aw! They probably just want you to be happy though!  Do any of your siblings have children? Well, one of them was doing to have a daughter, but she had a miscarriage and they haven't tried again since then. The others aren't really in committed relationships just yet. Now that I think about it, they probably don't stop by as often as they would if our parents did bug them about having grandkids.
