Weather forecast: WEDDING SHITSTORM
Omg.
I get a call from my normal brother today about our crazy brother who is getting remarried. Basically my SIL wanted a cleaning lady posted on FB about it and my crazy brother called my sane brother and was like put your foot down she stays at home make her clean etc. Basically handing out marriage advice AND getting into other people's business. Crazy texted me about it too and I just told him stop being rude none of his business etc. My crazy brother gets all his FB from his FI, like one time i posted that milo bite me when he got his first tooth, and he texted me and told me my child bite me because i am a bad mother. He seriously has issues.
So Sane asked SIL can you put privacy settings on FI so she doesn't tell Crazy anything. Well that spiraled out of control and FI blocked SIL and now a *** storm is a brewing.
Also earlier this week crazy questioned my mom how we afforded all new appliances, he has no idea how much money p makes or what we made off our house etc. So i lost it on that one and told my mom if crazy wants to be a apart of my life he needs to grow up. *** STORM *** STORM *** STORM.
P.S. last weekend was the b party me and sil were both not invited. i;m in the wedding sil is not.
Re: Weather forecast: WEDDING SHITSTORM
Ditto! I hate to say it, Lachute, but your family drama is kind of refreshing considering what we all deal with with DH's dad. He lives, feeds, creates, breathes drama. It's like he cannot function without it. He's coming down with his girlfriend this Sunday for Thanksgiving (why he is coming down 4 days early is beyond me) and is already starting his sh!t. It's nice to know that other people have crazies in their families too. I'm sorry you have to deal with nonsense like this though. Why are people so ridic? I don't get it.
Heather he better not being staying with you!
And since crazy is getting married thanks giving weekend we SAne bro and us are having dinner together in their new so jersey home. I'm so excited to have a quiet time together and not have to go to north jersey. We are all looking forward to it!
no gonna lie, part of me really would love to be at this wedding just in case something fun happens.
dh and i are dealing with some crazy right now too. i cannot wait until the holidays are over and we aren't expected to attend anything or interact with people for a few months. ugh. i seriously get tense and pukey just thinking about going to that house. boo.
haha i wish you could be milo's date. but i at this point i am shocked we are even invited.
and dude holidays suck. they should be spent with people you like not people who make you pukey.
Heather- it is strangely refreshing to hear that other people have family drama. You are not crazy to think so! I could write a book on the drama we have dealt with with DH's crazy crew.
Yep, him and his girlfriend are staying with us. I already asked DH last night, "why do they have to come down 4 days before Thanksgiving and then stay until the Sunday after Thanksgiving?!" He was just like, "can we please not even get into this and fight like we usually do over him?" I just dropped it. Not that I don't care but between work and the kids, I've got enough on my mind to worry about as it is as the moment.
You should check into a hotel for the week. Tell your husband to deal.
Good Luck everyone. I never knew how good I had it!
i know there are a few hotels near your office..... stay mon and tues night and cut the commute. that would make you happier all around. now just to figure out a way to get the kiddos there too.......
Actually, we started talking about this last night. DH knows his dad is a PITA so he jokingly said, "well, why don't you stay at your mom's house?" And I was like, "WHY SHOULD **I** BE THE ONE TO HAVE TO LEAVE **MY** HOUSE?!?!?!" which is when DH was just like, "can we please drop it before we kill each other?" Unfortunately I've realized that I'm going to have to deal with my FIL's BS until he croaks which means I KNOW that mothereffer is going to stick around until he is 100+ just to p!ss me off. It's just my luck.
I feel like the holidays coming is like the bat signal for all the crazies to go crazy.
Wow, that is nuts!! Crazy bro is not paying for the cleaning svc, so he should keep his mouth shut.
Can't wait to hear about the wedding.
you could come shopping at the KOP mall...I'm only 10 minutes away
ETA: Lachute, I do not envy you at all.
