In a 5 min span I suck as a daughter & aunt!

Today sucks. I think Wednesday is confused and thinks it's Monday. Overslept. stubbed my toe, spilled coffee. Then I get in the car and call my mom.

 We talk for awhile, I talk to my niece on speaker phone for a few seconds, mom asks about DH's brithday etc. Then she says," So Kaitlyn (my niece) had champagne with us last night" (actually she had sparkling grape juice...she's 2 1/2) & I say, "Oh...what were you celebrating??" Mom: "Our anniversary." ......fabulous!

Mom & Step dad got married on DH's brithday 9 yrs ago and you'd think that would HELP me remember but I'm usually so focused on DH's brithday that I almost forget every year. They're down watching my niece for a few days and not only did my sister remember, she brought them home champagne! So I say "$#%& %$#@# %#$$^! I'm so sorry I forgot, I suck!" Then I hear laughter and a tiny little voice say,"Oooooh...Aunt Christie!" and my mom says, "Ummmm...yeah. You're still on speaker phone." Awesome. lol

I feel so bad. I know it was an accident and they're not mad or hurt or anything, but they just spent several hundred dollars buying us the rest of our china & making a huge deal for our anniversary & I didn't even remember to call them. Plus, ya know...if my niece starts shouting expletives that will be my fault too. Yes

  • I'm sorry but this seriously made me LOL. Well, mostly the part about the still being on speaker phone. I understand why you're upset but I'm sure your mom understands. Life gets busy and things happen. Just do something extra special to make it up to them.

  • Aw, don't feel bad! I'm sure they understand, it sounds like it's NBD. 

    That's funny about your niece, I'm sure she won't repeat anything since she knows it's bad!  :)

  • After that I said," Well...ok then. I'm going to go since I totally suck & can't talk with my foot in my mouth." More tiny laughter. "For the love of god, take me off of speaker phone, mom!!!" I can just hear Kaitlyn," Mommy, Aunt christie said bad words. $#@$%" Love that cute sweet little parrot. She's going to rat me out! lol
