Would you be the slightest bit upset?

My mom just called me to tell me that my brother has decided to join us for Christmas dinner. I am happy to have him but it sent me into panic mode....how do i fit him at the table, now i need to make more food (I was worrying about not having enough before this announcement...). My mom FLIPPED out on me because i wasn't crying with joy at this revelation. I sounded frustrated and she told me that she was taking Christmas away from me because i obviously can't handle it! Ummmmm...I have an 8 month old who is teething BIG time, a dh with a horrible cold and i got a flat tire this morning...forgive me for being a little frustrated....

Ever have someone in your life who loves kicking you when your down?

Vent over...thanks for letting me get it out!

Is she really taking Christmas away from you? That would upset me. Having one more person at the table wouldn't phaze me.

Re: Would you be the slightest bit upset?

you should just tell her that the numerous extenuating circumastances leave you a tad overwhelmed.... and then ask if she could kindly fill-in for sick DH

no need to 'take christmas away'... after all, a flat tire and sick/teething family could happen to anyone, and can't be prevented.

hope the drama cools down Chat Icon

How is she going to take Christmas away from you? Cuz that sounds like a mean thing for her to say to you...
