Whats a family get together without family drama? Not my family get together lol. While the drill is No drama at my moms house, some how there always is. I was not a drama starter, though i think for a minute my mom thought thats what i was trying for. Until she heard it from everyone else, even people who arent family family.
First bit of drama was concerning my sister. She is and can be a first class bitch. I have my own issues with her, but since she wasnt there i was happy camping. I didnt have to see her, hear her, or have to guess who Katie was calling mom. It was also my sisters birthday the day before, and shes knocked up in the hospital with noone. So im going to go maybe that gives her an excuse for her bullshit. Ok so it doesnt i was trying to be nice.
My mom never asked that the her 2 kids, yes thats right she has 2 kids with a 3rd on the way(someone needs to set her straight on that one) to come to the 4th of july party. Shes not stupid, there wouldnt have been anyone to watch them. When your at my moms house your supposed to watch your own kids.
Thats one of the reasons i dont have as good a time as the rest of them. Im usually busy watching Mae. Which i would have been doing but the asshole is so good about reading my blogs, the asshole fucked up and called on the day i wasnt going to send her. My mom again told me to send her there, thank you mommy! But thats the rule, you watch your own kids. Remember i said that because it comes into play later.
My mom did ask that the kids come sunday when everyone had gone home. Well after my mom n dad had watched these kids the last few weeks off and on, NOW my mom couldnt be trusted to watch them. She might drink, be hungover, Jerry might fall into someone and have to apologize. The list was bogus and then they used the line they use on me EVERY FUCKING TIME I TRY TO SEE KATIE....Theres a church thing and we dont want them to miss it. What a crock of shit. So mom was devastated and hurt. She hung up with them to let them discuss it because honestly the decision wasnt a hard one.
My mom would die before her actions did something to hurt those kids. Its just a fact. So they call and say well wed rather them be there. So its not ok to be at her house but its ok for her to drive them almost 5 hours when she has issues with driving that makes her uncomfortable even driving Mae an hour to her house.
It was all a bunch of bullshit. Then my sister called and said she had a bad night because of it. I told my mom her guilt over making the wrong decision wasnt her problem. They made their decision and it was supposedly the right one for them, so why was there any issue for them? Because they are lying manipulative and just stupid.
Though because of this i did find out something i didnt know before. My mom thinks that Brianne is in the wrong for keeping katie from me, and not letting me have more contact with her. Its good to know all my screaming ranting and sobbing hasnt been for nothing. I really thought that i was the only one who felt that way about the situation. Now she didnt say it to me but she did say it to one of my best friends, and she doesnt need to lie to me.
So that was drama number 1, drama number 2 also involves a sibling. My brother married an 18 year old and i think shes 19 now. They have a baby named Michael, but um that baby is probably not his, but he loved the tramp, err girl and wanted her and so he got her.
My brother also has 2 other kids. Harley David is either 12 going on 13 or 13 going on 14, and is very sweet and has had a rough go of it. He had to deal with drama from his dads daughters mama. It was bullshit pure and simple. And i cant stand when a parent stoops to that level. Especially when the behavior implied has never once been seen on any other occasion.
Brittny and Brian dont watch Michael. Michael spent the majority of the time in the pack n play. It was so bad at one part Jerry , who isnt family family, said he couldnt take it anymore. He couldnt watch this boy be ignored. He picked him up. Robbie who is someone elses son and is about 10 maybe, was outside PICKING BUGS off Michael.
To make things even worse, they grounded Harley for taking a golf cart ride that my Dad had said was ok to go on, hell my dad tossed them the keys. Ok so i get maybe you would get a talking to for just running off. BUT there are a different set of rules at grandma and grandpas! If either of them say ok, well then its ok!
I came inside upstairs for something and there was Harley on the couch by Michaels playpen, which he was in, looking like he was going to cry. I love my nephew Harley, he always gives his aunt heather hugs and talks to me. So i asked him what was wrong and why was he sitting inside.
All the other kids were outside having a good time, even if it was raining. He told me he got grounded because of the golfcart and i asked how long he had to be there. His answer was until his dad was done being mad at him.
WTF?? But oh it gets better! Later me and brigitte are upstairs and we would like a little adult time, so we have to figure out what to do with her kids. Her son was asleep on the couch so it wasnt a big deal to sneek away for a minute. But her daughter was running around. My cousins were sitting in the living room and we got to talking for a minute.
We commented on how michael was stuck in that playpen all day and his mom n dad were out on the boat, in the lake, talking to family, doing whatever the hell they wanted. OMG you would have thought i was the queen or something. Tiff gets up and hollars give me some up top girl. Melissa and Tiff had been inside all day because theres a 7 month old baby who couldnt go outside in the yuck. Being good mamas. But they had been inside all afternoon and that baby was up there too, in his pack n play.
Then it comes out while we are all 4 talking that my brother had the nerve to look at them, laugh, smile and say...This is whats great about older kids, they can watch the younger ones. WTF? your job is to watch the kids, its not your kids job.
I told my mom what was going on the next day or maybe it was that day. hell i dont know its all the same because my mom was like what? Brigitte told her no Maggie, i was there thats what was said thats what happened.
Later i found out that harley asked my brother if he was good did what he was supposed to could he go tubing. My brother said "We will see, it depends on how good you take care of Michael", now that was heard by my cousin Chrissy! She was there, she told my mom. We have no reason to try to start bullshit because we all just want to have a good time!
Sunday poor Harley was in trouble AGAIN! Because he went for a tube ride with Grandpa Rex and the cousins. This time fucking Brittny told him no. We havnt figured out why but we all assume its because she wanted him to watch Michael so she could go. Hell Sunday was gorgeous. The sun was out it was hot and they proved again what crap parents they are.
They had michael out in the water and she yells up hey baby michaels starting to burn. Do they bring the baby up out of the water and under a tent? Hell no they just put more sunscreen on him and say Its the 90 proof blah blah. Well if your smart and have read anything in the last couple years. You know that anything really over 35 isnt anything but packaging to get you to buy it. Sunscreen has to block both of the rays and over 35 isnt any better. Babies when they start to burn need to be brought back inside not slathered with more sunscreen.
I tell you i dont understand some parents. Here i am with all my issues, but im doing my best. I have to not have fun because i chose to have a baby. Its what you do. Hell i know that Melissa would have loved to have been outside with everyone, having a drink, playing in the water, on the pontoon. But she has a 7 month old baby! Shes a good mama and knows what her responsibilities and priorities are.
Your priorities arent running around looking like your 8 months pregnant with horrible stretch marks, booty shorts, oiling up your flab and then coming to my mom with all your stuff hung out asking what do you think of my tan. You know what my mother said....She has no couth and i wasnt impressed.
But never fear i was a bitch! It was my turn to do clean up in the kitchen, and i got the sucky shift lol, crockpots from the night before and breakfast pans lol. As i was doing the dishes i realized i couldnt do dishes and dry them, id still be there. Well Miss Brittny who loves to send Harley in to do her share of helping didnt get out of it. I hollered and hollered out the screen porch till finally my brother had to make her answer me. Before she made it up the stairs my other cousin Andrea was like what if she sends harley, i told her id send the boy back out and send her bitch ass up.
Needless to say she wasnt happy about being drug out of the lake to dry and put away dishes. But damn it we all have to pitch in and i saw everyone else work but her. Hell i poured maybe 8 drinks and i think i got 4 of them because i was working.
My family is tolerant to a point, but when you fuck up, you fuck up. Just ask the asshole, hes not allowed down there anymore, and my sister in law is working her way to not being allowed down.
Ahhh family drama...dont you just love it (yes that was sarcasm lol)

When you say drama, you really mean it. *laughs* Sounds like there was a lot going on at your mom's house.
ReplyDeleteYou are definitely right though, when the kids are at the grandparent's house, there are totally different rules. I know because I'm a Nana. If I want to give my Grandson Starburst candy at 9am, I will.
Hopefully, you still had a great 4th of July with your family.
*hugs*
Can I come next time??
ReplyDeletepleaseeeeeeee I am not family but I could put a beat down on that punk ass girl in about 10 seconds, Or Better yet, BP will be 18 very soon and I could send her up there to beat her ass for you. And she is like 19 and Harley is 13? Sorry but your brother needs to be slapped simple for letting a CHILD try to raise his OTHER child.. That's utter Bullshit..
