May. 5th, 2019 06:43 pmYesterday the cousins too the 90 year old aunt to dinner. They wanted And and I to come. I said I had plans, a Derby Day party. They also wanted us to come for cake today as her real birthday is today. I wanted to go to Ipswich to a rock show (as in geology) that would have stone beads and panning for gold, etc. Dad would have found it fun and I would have taken him to lunch at our favorite place in Ipswich. He decided that he wanted to go to have cake at the cousins. Okay. So I went there.
Today was her birthday and we had to be there for lunch. Lunch was left over food from their dinner plates at the restaurant last night (that Dad went to). They did not eat as they had a late breakfast. ?????
The cake was half a cake that they had yesterday. Dad didn't tell me they had cake yesterday.
While we were there the granddaughter came with her baby. So for 4 hours the cousins made funny faces at the baby and watched a base ball game.
Why did I need to be there?
Then they want us there for Mother's Day next week. Umm... no. This is not My Mother. This is not my Grandmother. When my Mom was alive she did not go out with us on Mother's Day. She did not go want to, but I would bring her home Fried Clams. This is what I want to do. Dad wants to go to the cousins. Fine. I can go do what I want to do alone. There are clam shacks, not as good as the Ipswich bar, within walking distance to my house.
I have also found out that my sister and my uncle are in town at different times.... bill will be up north for 2 weeks but is going to New Hampshire for most of the time my sister is home. Both want me to take days off...Memorial Day is a coveted time for vacation. No one will compromise for me. No one will tell me what they are doing. I have a couple days off already, but no one will be here then, but for the days before my time off and after I am expected to arrange meals for 4 more people who don't want to do the same thing. It drives me crazy and they have added stress to my vacation time... so I won't get to just relax and paint.
