Vent: I would like to smack my brother right now
I'm so mad at my brother right now, I just got off the phone giving him a piece of my mind. My family is very big into holidays, we always spend the "big ones" (Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter) together. The last couple of years my brother has had it at his house in DS. This year my mom decided she wanted to have it because my grandpa is getting old and lives nearby so he could come.
Well my brother can't be bothered driving like thirty minutes to attend, he and his family will celebrate with their neighbors.
It just really p*sses me off because this is the first year that Elise is big enough to understand the Easter Egg hunt, and we always did the other games, now we won't have enough people. Every year his kids were growing up, we made a big deal of it for them. I feel like he's giving Elise the shaft and I told him so. Not to mention hurting my mom's feelings.
GRRRR I would like to drive over there and kick his @$$ right now.
Thank you, vent over.

Re: Vent: I would like to smack my brother right now
so i guess the neighbors are more important?
ugh. i know how you feel. i have divorced parents plus in-laws, so holidays are a clusterf*ck for us every year.
without going into any details, this has totally been on my mind, and I hate thinking about it..
yeah, he pretty much clammed up and stammered a lot of BS when he was confronted.
Thanks for letting me vent!!
OMG this reminds me of something my BIL would pull. Whenever we try to host something, they make it sound impossible to come over, because they have a baby. Well, 4 years later, that baby isn't much of a baby anymore and they STILL make the same excuses.
Oh and did I mention, BIL is literally around the corner from us? Yeah...
I feel your pain, Christen.
What an @sshat!
