Pre-Christmas Christmas Drama


Again, if any words are missing it's not my fault. Senior Sizzle does that sometimes and it's annoying. All I can do is go back and fill them back in.

As y'all know, Christmas is coming in a couple days. I am not planning on attending any Christmas celebrations this year because I don't want get my grandparents sick from covid. One major annoyance with my grandparents are that they love talk shit about family members. For context, my parents are divorced and all four of my grandparents are alive. I'll refer each set of them as R & P and A & J (A & J are also divorced).

Every year there is always a fight over who gets see who on Christmas day. That's usually conflict number one, but this year it's been a bit different- R & P aren't fighting or pressuring anyone celebrate Christmas (thankfully). They actually dropped off gifts and baked goods a couple days ago- so they for sure aren't expecting see my siblings or I for Christmas. R & P's side of the family is handling Christmas the right way. They are concerned about the virus. R & P also live in a pretty desolate area- I live in a hotspot. Not safe at all!! Now then, A & J are being their usual selves when it comes Christmas. It's so unfair what they are trying pull. So, my grandmother wants celebrate on the 26th because that's when my uncle (from AZ) will be flying in. I work a hour shift on the 26th so I'm not going- plain and simple. My grandfather wants have his own little party at a new cabin he purchased on the 27th. I don't want go because of the virus and because I don't like him. He's always been so rude my ma and my siblings. He's trying guilt<b> trip </font></b>my ma into forcing go by yelling at her (he always resorts yelling at her). One ironic thing is is that he has never been ANY Christmas celebration since I was 9. He had always been abroad or would stay home. He has also never been any other holiday celebration. So how did he come the conclusion that he doesn't have attend but everyone else does?

All I know is that they are going talk shit about all Christmas long

Wow....and I thought my family was dysfunctional. Your family is a lot like lone. My girlfriend and I would come home on the weekends. Even err try Sunday night the entire family would sit down for dinner like clockwork they would finish immediately grab there kids and hr ead home. Sure enough as soon as that door shut my parents were talking shit. My girl and I do dishes and I would turn and say see how my parents are? Now doesn't that make yuo want to marry me....lol

I guess the “good” news, at least this year, is that you have a hugely-justifiable reason to not be around most of them (we’ll have to see about coming up with something as good, for next year?). The old saying that “you can choose your friends but not your family” certainly seems most obvious around this time of year, for a lot of people. Your situation seems a little more extreme, though, unfortunately.

Grin and bear it, because you never know how things will turn out in the future? Understand the people and their tendencies, and don’t take on their baggage? Those might be a couple of strategies which could be useful. Not perfect ones, by a long shot, but if there was a magic-bullet approach to dealing with challenging relatives, we’d all know about it by now, right?

One method which seems to work for getting around the site’s propensity to delete random words from blog posts appears to be pasting the entire post as (the first) comment. The site’s bots (or whatever) don’t seem to be quite so hard on comments as on posts (not that a sub such as yourself would mind such realities, would she? ). You know the old saying - “you can’t fix stupid.” Come to think of it, that’s actually a new saying, isn’t it? LOL
