Tell me about your Easter!

Did everyone have a good day?

Re: Tell me about your Easter!

  • Our day was ok. The beginning and end were rough. M woke.up at 6 to pee and she went back to bed but never went back to sleep. So at 7:30, I went back in to get her. DH was up late painting so he was grumpy which led to him making a comment about the number of eggs I hid which pissed me off. Yes, I did too much, but M had fun finding them.

    Then we had a great time at my parents for brunch. Afterwards, we came home and hung out and relaxed which was nice too. But...when someone gets up at 6 AND doesn't take a nap, then bedtime is full of meltdowns and tears. Ended up with her falling asleep while I was reading her a book. Shes never done that. Haha

     

  • How was your day? Did you end up getting G anything?

     

  • @klm42404 that picture is precious!

    Easter was good.  I woke up and made the cheesecake cups I should have made Saturday night.  It's not hard, just needed time to chill.  Got E to nap, which was more her playing in her crib for 45 mins, napping for 30.  In the mad rush to get ready, I forgot the cheesecakes I made... I'm awesome like that.  Nephew and niece were over which was nice.  We really should have gotten pictures with all the grandkids together.  Dad's new favorite thing is pushing E in the computer chair.  They go around the whole house.  She just sits there and laughs when they stop. 

    I'll make a post about my sister's visit Saturday.  I feel like the whole weekend blew by.  I hate being that busy.

    It was meh.  There was some sister drama and I'm still feeling kind of down about it.  And I did not get G anything.  I went to Barnes and Noble intending to get a book, but then I started second guessing everything I picked up and just sort of stressed myself out of the whole idea.

    @mana8503 - More cheesecake for you!
  • @janma529 I'm sorry for the sister drama. Family stress can put so much added pressure on the holidays. Does she enjoy the attention she gets from it?

    @janma529 - haha I've had one for lunch every day!  Also, I'm sorry getting a simple gift for your niece is so stressful.  Why do people make life harder than it needs to be?

    I don't think so.  What you need to understand about my sister is she operates on this like alternate plane of reality, so I don't think she sees the impact her behavior has on everyone around her.  She's also very egocentric and considers herself the victim in pretty much every circumstance.

    Good times, eh? 
  • @janma529 Ugh...that is stressful. Has she always been a "me, me me" person? Does your BIL play into it?

    I have a SIL who plays the victim too. So annoying. Especially when people cater to that shit. Like if she brings a food item to a party, she gets upset of people don't eat it. She thinks we don't like it. No, I'm just full and can't eat 3 different dessert. (But truthfully, I don't care for her baking. Haha)

     

  • EVERYONE plays into it!  And yes, she has been this way as long as I can remember.

    lol at your SIL!
