hi
Christmas is coming and the mad rush will began.
We usual have a large family christmas. Mom, Brother, Inlaws and stepson, plus Mother-In-Laws, Brother who was recently widowed.
For the past 4 years, mom has spent xmas with us. My dad divorced my mom after 40 years of marriage. Christmas is a very hard time for mom, and mom likes a drink so the emotions are increased. Last year my father-in-law was diagnoised with PSP, and my mother-in-law had to cope with the death of her sister-in-law. It was a hard christmas. So to keep my mothers emotions at a low, I only purchased wine for lunch, 3 bottles. She had no thought for the other members. Just moaned all day about dad.
We have the same amount of family this year visiting. So to make it easier we are going to go for lunch at a local pub. I just rang my mom about this, and mom tells me she is going to my sisters over christmas.
Never mind that my sister has had no or little interaction with mom, over the past 4 emotional years. Sister never bothers to acknowledges moms birthday, mothersday. My sister also likes to drink.
Mom has recently sold her house, and as banked a little cash. I'am rather concerned that this, is the only reason my sister has invited my mom. For reasons that are too longwinded, me and my brother do not trust my sister in any way.
I feel really angry at my mom. We supported her during this emtional time, and now she is dumpping us over christmas. I didn't even get a thanks for having me 4 years before. It was like want do you want and oh go away, you have nothing I can benefit from.
Sorry just ranting.
