Shooting Down the Christmas Spirit
Ok, this is going to a be a petty bitchy post, but I must get this out of the way. My SIL abso-fucking-lutely pisses me off. You see she's a tad, ummm how do you say, S T U P I D! She wrote us (DH and myself) a letter a while back and said something along the lines of, "You won't let me be Aunt K to your children, you never bring them to see me, or send me pictures, I've never seen a picture of LT except what Nana has received from you." Well, you see this is the chick who *sometimes* buys them Xmas or Birthday gifts, but only when her Nana buys them and puts her name on them (SIL is 25, BTW). She is SINGLE, no KIDS, and can come and see us easier than we to her.
So she's not really in my kids' lives, well she hasn't made the effort. I don't really mind family because I think that all families should at least TRY to get along, but when you don't even make a gawddamn effort to be an Aunt or Grandmother(MIL) then damnit all, I won't be trying to make that effort for you. I will NOT do the work of explaining to my kids why Aunt K didn't get them gifts this year, but everyone else gave them gifts, and we even went to FL and saw the rotten whore.
So, this is where my true bitching comes in. We go to FL and SIL brings over her digi-cam and starts taking a ton of pics of my kids, fine with me I just ask to be emailed the copies because she got a really cute one of LT, well she doesn't email me, like I knew she wouldn't. So DH calls his dad yesterday and his dad says, "The best gift I got, and no it isn't the big screen TV." (That everyone went in on but failed to call and let us know about, SIL's work is all over that little thing). His favorite gift was the framed picture that SIL gave him of MY KIDS!!!!!!! Hmmm let's see, she's not in their life, she doesn't even TRY to be and when we DID go over there she just sort of ignored the kids and me and just sat there being surly. Yet she gives HER dad a picture of my kids??? See, if she even remotely acted like she liked us then the picture thing wouldn't be so bad, but it just doesn't make any sense to me. And I'm sure that I shouldn't be pissed about it, but SIL is a tramp and underhanded at that. She told me for YEARS how much she hated her father, then he got sick and she's the 'Daddy's-Little-Girl' victim in all this shit. Now, she goes and sucks up to him using MY KIDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My children did NOT have a gift from her under our tree, I sent the little witch a Christmas card, didn't even get THAT niceity out of her in return. I have even gone so far as to send her a Christmas card every year, minus last year because well, she said how much she hated us.
So now I'm being immature and stupid, but I REALLY just want to write her and tell her to just leave us the hell alone, she causes nothing but stress to us with her stupid antics and my kids aren't getting consistent messages from her. My dear sister can be a flake at times but gawd damn almighty she at least is consistent and they get Xmas and birthday gifts, and she comes to their parties and sees them every Xmas, now granted she is just down the road, but ummmm the least SIL should do is sent a fucking card...even if it says "Merry Fucking Christmas you Sorry Bastards." I'd take it!!! And when she sees them she could AT LEAST talk to them, they aren't like usual kids, they are SUPER polite to EVERYONE and very easy for adults to talk to (well BT anyway, LT doesn't talk much yet). Besides, if the stupid whore hates us so much why does she manage to ALWAYS come around when we go down there?? She KNOWS that we're down there yet she still wants to come over and she invites us over for dinner (Which I will now turn down every invitation that she gives us, fuck her...I don't go where I'm not welcome, damn!).
Basically there is a L O N G history with her that is not very good...and she just keeps coming up with more and more shit to throw at us. How do you give someone a gift of pictures that you took of SOMEONE ELSE'S kids yet don't send the KIDS' PARENTS a copy of the photos???????????
Ok, now that everyone thinks I'm petty and stupid I'll go and grab a diet coke and just feel better knowing that I got this all out in the open (with you all anyway) and I can feel better!

Dude, it's not petty. You have every right to feel the frustration right now. That's some shady shit. Hope the new year makes you feel a little better.
I'm sure you have very good reasons for feeling as you do. (See my post about the father-in-law that has been here for 10 days and basically ruined Christmas!) He told me last night that I didn't feel stressed out. Like he could possibly understand my feelings. Oh well, enough of this. Hope you and family are making it through the holidays okay.
I immediately liked the name of your site. I love turtles-the animal and have 4 turtles-kids of my own.
Wow! I feel better too! I felt a lot of aggression in that! Hope it will all work itself out.
That really is shady. What a bitch! I hate the out-laws...ggrrr.
Don't feel bad Turtle....your SIL IS a fucking whore! I have heard enough about her to hate her myself!
Your xmas eve party was SO MUCH FUN! I didn't want to go home! Plus I think my dh misses your beaver.
**snicker, snicker** I'll let YOU explain that one!
Well, this is my first time here...and even though this was a 'bitching' blog entry...I have to say, I will be back.
I'm sorry that you have such a stupid SIL! But, let me tell you...I know ALL about STUPID family members. Oh, yes I do!!! It's weird though, my in-laws are all wonderful...it's my blood family that's f---ed up!
Anyway, best wishes to you in the New Year. I'm heading to read some of your older entries now.
Have a great day!

I am sure I am just repeating what everyone else commented, but you are NOT petty or stupid! She sounds like some of my family members and well it sounds like to me you are only trying to protect your babies from her! Which is exactly what I would do. Just steer them (your kids) clear of her, they do not need any unstability in their life! YOU GO GIRL!
