September 2012 Weddings

Family Vent / Good news

My sister is in NC and I'm in Kansas. We were originally planning on doing a double wedding since we used to be stuck to each other (not literally) when she lived in Kansas. She just stopped taking my calls, or answering my email when trying to plan details. So I started planing just my wedding. I think she went to the JOTP maybe.... She changed her facebook status to married, but never told us anything, or put any pictures up.

Well, she hasn't been home since my brother died 3 years ago, but promised to come to my Wedding even if she wasn't getting married. She has since pretty much flaked on me. I had to ask 3 times for her address to send her an invite, then my mom finally got it for me. When I talk to her, she said that she was coming. I offered to pay her and her man's airfare since I REALLY want her there.  Today was my last straw Cry. I posted a message on her facebook wall (the only way she will respond to me) letting her know how much it will mean to me, and reminding her that I WILL be coming up there for her wedding. I checked later to see if she had connected today. She did, responded to somebody else, and..... DELETED my post without saying anything to me.

This really makes me sad, like she was slapping me in the face. Me and my other sister are fighting since she decided to send a picture of her "hoo hoo" to my fiance, and told him that he needs to leave me and marry her (I was nice and didn't kill her.lol). We just booted her out of our lives, and have been very happy. She has since been trying to turn the rest of my family against me which seems to be working. My Grandparents are even contemplating missing the wedding because of the drama that she is causing. Only 55 of the 97 family invited have RSVP'd, and our RSVP date was 1 Aug.

On another note, I am officially a month from the wedding, and my Mother has not been dress shopping. She has been putting it off because she wanted to diet before shopping. Now is talking that she doesn't have money, and is going to wear slacks and a blouse that she has laying around..... I'm not sure how I feel about this.....yes I do. I want to stomp my feet like a bridezilla. So I did what I had, and told her that I could help with the dress, but we NEED to go shopping since we are getting close (she is plus sized, and we have limited stores for plus sized around here). But now that school has started up, she said that she doesn't have time since she works in the cafeteria, and she can order something online..

Help me?!?! Am I going crazy, or do I have reason to be frustrated/hurt?

On another note. I got an official job offer today. Laughing I start work on the 17th of September, which will only give me 1 night of honeymoon, but we were only planning on doing 2 nights anyways. I left the Military in June, and had my Hysterectomy in July, so I am ready to get back to work. I have been keeping busy though between planning the wedding, my son's 7th birthday party on 2 september,  and healing.

  • My mother will most likely just be wearing slacks and a blouse. She's not a dress person, and I won't force her to wear one. She hasn't been shopping yet but I did offer if when she does feel up to it, if she'd like to get a new blouse I will treat her to one. She is a bit bigger herself and is very self conscious. For this reason the idea of going shopping for an outfit is very intimidating to her.
  • I'm really sorry your going through all that drama with your sisters.. I hope things get better.  As PP said, maybe your mom is really self consious about the whole shopping process? Maybe trying sitting and talking to her and that will help.  Good Luck :)
