I'm so aggravated. Yesterday my stepdad texted me and said "surprise birthday party for your mom, contact people." Ugh okay? I asked him when and where etc. He plans a birthday party for her when he knows I'm not going to be in town?!?!? What the heck. I asked him" did it not come up in conversation between you and my mom, DH and I are going to be OOT?" He said yeah. I get that it's a nice gesture for him to throw her a party but her daughter and SIL and granddaughter won't even be there! This is her first birthday without my sister so I know it'll be rough.
After a few texts back and forth, he still wants me to plan and get a hold of 20+ people. I will do it for my mom, but I just hate I can't be there. And really, planning a surprise party 4 days before the party?? Come on, what a guy thing... I already told my mom that her and I would do something for her birthday next week, but it still blows.
Sorry for the rant. I'll send cookies for listening.
