Seriously

Why is it so exhausting to not do anything? I did nothing this weekend besides sit around the house waiting for stupid family to show up. OK, I have four kids, so I did normal around the house things like cooking, cleaning and laundry, but that doesn't really count. So the weekend was crap and here comes Monday--a beautiful sunny day, not too hot, nice breeze. The waiting game is finally over, because by now the in-laws are back home (not that I have actual confirmation on that, seeing as how they didn't bother to let me know their plans or call.) So what did I do all day?? More nothing!!

It is so emotionally draining to feel like your family of all people only want you for what you can do for them. And it really irritates me to no end that because the kids did not want to go up and visit them, they CHOSE not to bother to come back over to see them again. Give me a break. It's children we're talking about here--your grandchildren--and you chose to ignore them out of selfish pride?? Really??? Could we TRY to act like adults and show some consideration for the feelings of others? You can treat me like crap. Fine. But don't screw with my kids and their feelings.

Now that I have that out of my system, let me just say that I have come to a decision regarding the in-laws and their blatant disregard for anyone's feeling but their own: FUCK THEM!
