not my best Christmas..

[Stitchfans]

This wasn't exactly the best Christmas I have ever had. It started out with DH waking up complaining. He continued to complain about everything thoughout the day. Not sure exactly what his problem was, maybe PMS or something.
Then at 10:30 a.m. the time DD25 was suppose to be here with her boyfriend she calls to tell me that her bfs car was broken into last night. When he went out to start it he discovered the driver's side window smashed in with the dash board all torn up and the stereo missing. So of course they waited for the police to come to file a report, and the she helped him clean up the mess and try to put some plastic on in place of the window.

Her bf never came over cause he needed to get to work and was kept busy to long with the police, insurance co so on. Then he continues to call DD whinning about this car from work all day long which puts DD in a foul mood. Meanwhile DH is still complaining.

DD11 the only smart one in the group hid herself in the living room keeping herself busy with her new gifts. I tried to keep calm, and happy while I made supper. The only real pleasant part of the whole day was watching the Disney parade. Sure glad all Christmases aren't like this one.

Oh, that is dismal! That is a shame about DH starting the day off complaining. I probably would have turned the music up louder! J/K!

Hope today is a brighter day for you and your DFamily!

Holycow

I'm sorry you didn't have such a good day.

My Christmas Eve was lousy. For some reason, DS 14 went nuts and raged at us all day long (he's bipolar and off meds). It wasn't until that night that he settled down and actually apologized to me, but by then I was so down. He was okay on Christmas day, though, so I'm glad it was a brief episode.

Is everybody happier today?

Susan, my DH gets like that now and then. I sometimes think he's going thru the "change" too. Here's a for you.

I have an aunt in her early 60's who never had any kids, she just bugs dd12 to death at the holidays......then wonders why dd doesn't want to be around her.

I hope you can sit down with a shortbread cookie and enjoy today!

Yes, thank you.

As soon as DD11 wakes up I plan on hitting Target for their after Christmas sales. I love bargains.

I guess everyone was feeling the strange since we didn't go to my dad's house and see him. Timing just stunk with his wife just getting out of the hospital.

Plus DH decided not to go to his side of the family's Christmas eve get together. Their nastiness has gotten to him to. Just before he went to bed one of his sisters called and he refused to answer the phone. So she left a message on our voice mail. She said their mother was crying because she didn't see him this Christmas.
He then proceeds to blame me. I nearly hit the roof.

Like I told him not once did I ever tell him to stay away from his family, or to keep DD away. As a matter of fact I encouage him to call his mother, and go see her. He says oh yeh, you are such a saint. You don't like her.

I admit then that yes, I do not like her or anyone else in his family because of the way they treat us. They started showing their true colors once his dad passed away. My way of dealing with all the nastiness is to stay away from and avoid them completely now. I guess this is what is referred to as a no win situation.

Oh well won't let it get me down today. I am heading off to the stores.

Mine wasn't great until last night when I got to see two hours of WDW on the History Channel! That made me feel better quick.

Sorry you didn't have the best Christmas. I used to like it.....until I got married. DH is not into it all and doesn't do any of the work and doesn't like to do things associated with the season. He is also bi-polar and was in a big funk from Christmas Eve with my family - where he just sat on the couch and didn't talk with anyone - to Christmas day where he didn't even acknowledge my parents when they came over. Didn't even care what the kids got or anything else. He is off all this coming week and I am not looking forward to it - he will probably spend most of his time on the couch. Blah...can you tell that I didn't have the best Christmas either? I just want it to be january so all this is over...
