Le Birthday Drama

Roisin's birthday is December 6th. And so begins le birthday drama. SIL wants to see her, but she can't be anywhere at the same time as FIL, because they aren't talking and haven't talked for oh, literal years. FIL wants to see Roisin but he can't be seen at the same time as MIL, because they haven't talked for oh, literal years. Even when Rob was in the hospital last year, they.didn't.talk.

So exactly how, pray tell, is one to have a family gathering of any sort when the family isn't talking or speaking to each other? What I want to say, and I won't, is that all concerned need to get over it. Now. It's past ridiculous. But then again, it's not my family, just the one I married into, so...

Yeah. I guess we'll be digging out our seating chart again. ;-)

About Me

My photo
Wife, mom of a preemie, follower of the old ways, lover of anything Irish or Celtic, history buff, trivia nut, Star Trek and Ren Faire geek and costuming fiend. Offer me coffee or chocolate and world peace is assured. Or at least I'll try really hard. :) I also believe in deleting spam. So, to the person or persons who keep leaving me comments in Chinese (along with links to what I can clearly tell are Chinese porn sites) stop it. It's bad karma, to say nothing of being really, really rude.
