Weekend with in laws VENT

I apologize for any typos, long paragraphs, and whatever else. I'm typing on my phone and I'm fuming!

Lorrddd before I open my mouth I need my sisters to calm me down. So we out of town for the weekend staying with a bunch of FI family. His cousin is graduating HS. Sooo we're talking about wedding and his sister turns to his cousin and says "ohhhh remember we had that loooong convo. Well that same day they called and asked me to be in the wedding so I'm in it now." hmmm I'm puzzled but I let it go. His sister is a hostess. So then another cousin comes in and they bring up this convo again. So I ask what is this convo y'all talking about? The cousin looks at me and says Oooh it was about you and you don't want to know. So the sister says all I'm saying is how is soinso and soinso in the wedding and I'm not. I said I had nothing to do with who your brother picked. She says but I'm 1. I WANTED to say sweetie appearantly not! His sister is drama and ghetto and HELL NO I was not having her be a bridesmaid. She better take this hostess job or sit down! And I don't appreciate these behind my back conversations. This is day 1 of a 4 day weekend. Please pray for me to hold my tongue.

Oh and this is a household where unmarried people can't sleep in same room. Whatever that's how my parents are but because the house is so full this weekend and were on very limited budget I'm sharing a bed with grandma. She's sweet and I love her but DAMN for real?!

  • WOOSAH!  WOOSAH!   I know it is hard to stop yourself from going Madea on someone but you can do it.  Some people just don't know how to keep their mouths shut.  SMH.

    P.S. You know you loved sharing a bed with Grandma.  Come on now!  LOL!



    Love is the ultimate superpower.   
    It can make you weak and strong simultaneously.  



  • O gurl, calm down knottie sister  ((hugs))  and a "behave ya self" look.  Dont get involved in lil girl chatty crap.  EVEN IF they are talking about u or your wedding behind your back, let it roll off your back.  FURTHER they brought up their convo because they wanted to suck you in... DONT BITE THAT... its bait!!

    Let them have their side convos, pretend dumb and keep it moving.  Not worth it.  (I know, easier said than done)

  • Island that is not funny! Lol I tried to say oh I don't mind sleeping on the floor. They like girl you ain't gotta sleep on no floor we got this big old queen bed. Lol I can't win! Thank y'all for the words. I so badly want to put these little girls in their place. I will do my BEST to be quiet for the rest of the weekend. Me and FI are getting up early to workout and go see some sights. I'm ready for some alone time.

  • Fooooootballwifeeeeee!!! I blame you! It's 4a and I'm on the knot. Why? Because grandma is calling hogs as my folks say. She is snoring like a damn 400 lb man! I'm talking the kind where it gets quiet then she comes back twice as loud. Oooh y'all I'm so ready to go home.

  • Noooooo! I hope grandma quieted down eventually and that today runs a lot smoother than yesterday!!

  • She did not. I slept from 12:304 and did not go back to sleep. I put in my headphones and tried to listen to music and fall back asleep but I was wide awake. This morning she asked did she snore too loud and I had to be honest but I said it nicely lol she said I should've told her to turn over lol I'll have back up reinforcement for round 2 tonight.

  • Update: I took like a 3 hour nap and when I get up everyone teasing me FSIL and cousins. FSIL says when they heard I was sleeping with grandma she started to trade me places but she said I had to pay my dues. They were like NEVER sleep with her. What a set up.

  • BAHAHAHA. I'm sorry. Sleeping with grandma. I'm hook her up with my pop pop. LOL

  • Another update: we slept in a hotel!! More people came into town yesterday so the house was just too crowded. His aunt had a good deal at the hotel so us, FI parents, and FSIL jumped on it so I just woke up refreshed! And it seems EVERYONE in the house knows about snoring grandma! The more people I told they were like well you had to learn for yourself. That was the running joke all day yesterday in the house. We still have one more day because graduation isnt until later today. But we're in a hotel so I'm better. The girls have stopped talking crap and are back to loving me. Hmmm I just have to keep a side eye since I know they have secrets convos about me.
