I hate holidays to say the least. I hate when my family is all together as it is nothing but a source of conflict. But most of all because of my SIL. I have alredy told my mom that when they come I am going up in my room and staying there until they go home again. I have decided that I am removing myself from the coflict. That is the only way I know I will not be hurt by her.

I am feel very low and depressed. Sad and lost. I feel very detached from everything.

I am the World's Biggest LOSER.


Thank - you for listening to me.

Take Care of yourselves.

Hugs

Cathy,

Do you really think you are the world's biggest loser What about Mike Tyson? OJ Simpson? Those Enron guys? Drug dealers? Wife beaters? Drug addicts? People in jail?

What about people who spend all of their time working on the board of their homeowners associations, telling neighbors that their bushes are too bushy and their trash can isn't taken in fast enough after the trash men come. Now THEY are some serious losers.

How about Saddam Hussein? He's DEFINITELY the world's biggest loser.

If you include vicious criminals, deadbeat dads, and corrupt government criminals, you can't even be in the top 2 BILLION of the world's biggest losers. Don't even get me started

on crack addicted women who have babies.

Cathy, you are like most of the rest of the world that hates to get together with family

members, especially in-laws on holidays. I refuse to do it anymore. I just stay home on

holidays and never invite anyone over. It's just me, my dh, and my cat and dog. I don't

make a turkery, either. Too much work. I make stuffing and we have salad and some

store bought pie. That's enough food for two people and two animals.

You could also go out while your sister-in-law is there. Go see a funny movie. Have you seen Elf? That's way better than staying in your room. If your SIL can't be decent to you, then she doesn't deserve to have you around. She hasn't earned the right to be around you.

I can't stand my nasty sister-in-law. I can't believe my stupid brother married her. I barely acknowledge her at family functions. It makes her hate me. But that's OK, because that means I never have to see her! Yay!

I think holidays are a big lie. Do whatever you need to do for yourself.

The most important thing is taking care of yourself.

All My Best,
