Are you effing kidding me? vent.

We have family that flew in from overseas and are staying with my parents for 5 wks. My uncles J & L and their families had been raving about spending time with family and they couldn't wait to go to all the fun places together etc. We had agreed that I was going to take them for some sightseeing and shopping. I took a few weeks off to spend time with my family but I feel like haven't done a lot with them yet and i am back to work soon. until now, i have done very little with them. I seriously feel left out and my hubby even thinks things are odd around here.

We had all planned to go to a theme park last Thursday because my hubby was off. They all decided to go on Wednesday instead because it suited my sister and my one cousin better (surprise surprise- the immature, childish assshole from my birthday party WWYD post from last week). They changed the plans the night before we were supposed to go. We (my hubby and kids and i) didn't end up going because my hubby had to work and i felt bad going without him. We made plans to go to the theme park again this Thursday. Now my uncle L says they might not go because they want to go stay with my uncle M my for a few days this week. Seriously? Were you not just with them for 4 days this past weekend and for 3 wks when they visited you back home this past spring?

This past Saturday we were going to have a big bday party for my dad . Instead, my visiting uncle L and family went to Boston for the weekend with my uncle M who is no relation to them, Which meant that they also missed going to Niagara Falls with the rest of us. So we didn't have the big birthday BBQ since most of the family was missing so my visiting uncle J, my hubby and my kids just had dinner with my dad. Then i find out that my uncle J and my aunt aren't coming to my son's Bday party next weekend because my aunt's relatives have chosen to go to the animal safari. Might i add that the date for my kid's party was set a month ago....and they knew that.

So my uncle L and family returned from Boston yesterday and was going on about how they missed my kids and wanted to come spend the evening with us today. I went grocery shopping and cleaned the house and waited for them. at 8:30 pm my dad called to say hi to the kids and i asked when they are coming because the kids have to go to bed soon. My dad has no idea what i am talking about- he had just got home from work everyone has gone to my uncle M's house for his birthday. WTAF? Here i am, waiting for these people, and they've gone off to do something else? Why didn't anyone tell me? (and as a side note, if everyone has gone to my M's house for his birthday, why wasn't i invited? Dude, i am his neice). My dad thinks i am being childish and he says that people are allowed to go where ever they want. He says i am being too sensitive and i have to respect that they are all here on vacation and free to do as they please. Yes, true but don't make plans with someone then go off to do something else. That's so rude! Have you now seen a pattern here?

My cousin Loren and i had a conversation too and she also feels left out. She feels like the family is going to go back home and she won't have spent any time with them. We hope that we'll have some time with them next week because she has a week off and it's my last week off too.

oh, and i apologize for the TL:DR. i realize it's long, but i am venting. It's too late to call my cousin to commiserate.

Holy shiit, what a bunch of rude assholez. I would suggest you make the plans you want to make with YH and LO and if they make it, fine and if they dont, then fuckthem.

Dude, I'd be effing pissed too! I am sorry that you are having to deal with crappy family members! I agree with Kitiara.
