Morning All
So what is a special day/ holiday/family get together without someone pissed at me. Well not a day in my life, that is for sure!!
Thats right Janelle moved Austins bday party again. Now the 14th. She AGAIN was askinmg about christmas again. She knows we always have christmas.
So grant FINALY calls her last night. First tells her we can't come to austins bday. But instead of telling her he copuld not get time off...esp this close to christmas. No he says it is too stressful with her mom and step dad there. So her back is us right away. Her mom, she says, is coming and bringing her hubby cory weather he wants to come or not. Told him he was doing it for the kids. Well this jerk mouthed to anyone that would listen last time. Thank god grant is deaf...but i had heard it and worked at keeping them apart.We alos left early so there was no fight. I later told grant what was said...he knew there was more to it when i was so distracted later. He said he would have confronted him...so guess i did the right thing.
So then she is on about me being sick and that is the real reason....grant said partly. Thanks! Make me the fall guy!
Then she says that we don't go to the party...she will not see us for christmas. She complained about the 2 hour drive(we drive it at spead limit for abput 1 hr 20 minites.)
Then she complains that the kids hate dogs and not fond of the cat.
So grant is upset. she has christmas eve and morning with her mom and will go to her soon to be ex inlaws over 4 hours away for part of christmas.
Now we thought it would be easier us not going to the party and less stressful for everyone,Janelle esp., the poor girl that we had to give our air conditioner and upright freezer to. But she is renting the town pool and party romm bside the pool for2 hours. Not cheap! We were all to go in swim suits.Now her mom and dad talk about us in ordinary clothes being fat...can you imaging in swim suits?? Grant alsocan't swim if there is a fight.i am also called the pig and fat b__ch.Her mom calls grant pork chop or worse.
So this is our world.
Now add our adhd kittle and the ornament attacks, the tree stand leaking to a full flood and warping the hardwood, Arliss not calling yet, ...it goes on and on!
The prime minister may be over thrown, my ex's sisters lawyer sent another letter demanding i give them the kids addresses, the oilfield dieing in ressession. It is all too much.
add to that the galbladder attacks and the womans stuff here again.
Just another day calgone could not take you away from!

Miss you?...yes sure have....So happy to see you but not happy to hear of all the "drama" in your family...Sounds like Janelle and the others will never change so you have distance yourself, as hard as that may be....
I hope and pray you hear from Arliss soon....
So much for you to deal with...take good care of yourself and don't stay away....you know we all care and love you~~
As I read the thread title my eyes read "Kiss Me"??
So sorry yougot so sick....you aall better now?
At least you were able to enjoy you Moms' cooking and Thanksgiving....you did didn't you? Your step-father must be really happy to have electricty in his barn, that was very nice of you.
BTW....nice to see you around again...<> you've been missed!
BREE !
***NEVER BE POSSESSED BY YOUR POSSESSIONS ***
You go through this crap every year, enough's enough!! What makes it worse is the visions in your mind of how nice it could be for Christmas if everyone would cooperate. Not gonna happen..forget it!! When kids get older, things change as far as holidays go. Make it easier on yourself by going with the flow. If some, or even only one, come to join you, make that your special time. As far as the rest of them, let it go. If none of them will join you, then do something nice for just you and Grant. You don't have to have holidays on the very day either. My family has had our Christmas as far away as a month later at times due to various kid's work schedules. It was just as nice on that day as it would have been on the actual day. This year we had our Christmas on Thanksgiving Day as DD2 & family aren't coming back into the area for Christmas. It doesn't matter when it's done. Make it easy on yourselves and if everyone can't be there, that's okay too.
Stay away from Janelle's mother and step father. They are toxic!! Unless there's a wedding or something that you must attend, stay away from them..period! Janelle is not very smart and does not handle these touchy situations well. You have to take a stand. Life is too good and too short to waste time with toxic people! When Grant wants to see his DD, make it another day and another time. Cut yourselves some slack!
Pat and Duane said it well and I agree.
I'm glad you're back here where you belong. Now stop staying away please!
Special Hugs to you......
CABIN!!! YOU HAVE A CABIN????? Im on my way!!! Geez a log cabin is my dream home and I see you live in TN, been there its a beautiful state.

Thanks Beverly!
It gets to the point where you get ick just thinking of the holidays
i miss him so much
Yes, I missed you
and my parents live across the street and we do not speak! So well, whatever!
Thanks J-man
I just read you post to dh. He can't believe what great friends i have here.
The offer to visit is so nice....maybe sometime soon. For now we sit and hold on to our money. With the oil like it is here and rigs shutting down...work will be scarse for a while.
Grant will not call Janelle again for a while.
We said if she showed we will tell her what she told us at her place'Cause trouble and you are out'! Nice huh.
What really got me was she knows that this is always what happens at our house for Christmas and she wanted us there. No inviting the other kids. Did she really think we would go to her home and leave everyone else out??
She needs to grow up!!
