my mom does not seem into thanksgiving at all. her boyf (not my mom too ) is debating whether to go to portland (we are in bend, or) to be w/ his mother as its going to be her first thanksgiving w/out her dh since he died and i guess thanksgiving was their big thang vs. christmas...but he doesn't want to miss being around soon after sheamas is born... my mom seems to think sheamas will be here on tuesday 11/20. whatever. whatever makes you feel important i want to say. sorry, she's aggravating to me so much of the time...
so i said well i LOVVVVE thanksgiving and i want to at least have somthing...a small turkey...something! she said you are not going to want to deal w/ that and if sheamas is here you will have your hands full. (who said i was making the turkey i wanted to say! and i don't believe i'd have my 'hands full' w/ a new baby...he will only be doing poops/pees and nursing and sleeping for petes sake...) i said well you can make most of it, it doesn't have to be anything fancy....just as long as we have some baked turkey and all the yummy stuff that goes w/ it...stuffing, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, etc. she didn't look too into it. then again she isn't a very enthusiastic kind of woman as it is... she really can be a major bummer...always has been like this. so i don't know what to do now. they are the only family we have here. i haven't been invited anywhere else...funds aren't here to go out to eat anywhere...so now what. hungryman dinners for 4? what a bah humbug. just goes to show her adapting to her men as always..................can't just do something for me and her and megh...gosh and she wonders how i got to be how i am re. relationships. sigh. grrrr. any suggestions? looks like megh and i are going to be having our own little feast somehow. sheamas born or not i have a lot to be thankful for and the feast i want included in it. if i am in labor or birthing on thanksgiving, then we can plan for a day or two afterwards...but its like my mom isn't even INTO it as even an idea. wth???!!!
