Official 2022 Bitch about Family - Holiday Insanity

[Wax Beer Cup 382]

Trying to abide by no CR rule, but obviously hard to avoid in this thread.  So I go over to parents around noon to do all the cooking, which is cool. I enjoy doing it and usually host, but dad’s mobility issues make it easier for him to be in his own space. So after getting everything in the oven, I show them some pics and videos of a pup I’m very close to adopting from a rescue this week (we’re in DFW area).  The pup is one of three brought up here from the RGV about a month ago, and as soon as I mention this, without hesitation, dad says that’s gotta be one of those damn dogs that the last caravan brought with them right before the midterms.  He just saw a story about it on Fox News the other day.  Learned several years ago it’s better for my health not to engage and just walk away.  Wish me luck with my new Honduran pup this week! 🐶🇭🇳

Picked up my dad from nursing home. Literally took me and three nurses to get him into my car. I was almost in tears and almost gave up. Was ready to tell him I would just bring us both a plate back and eat there. It sucked!

But, wife and I just walked to my office to “switch out sheets” for BIL and his wife to sleep. BIL came knocking on door after a while. He and his wife were less than thrilled. Don’t care. Had sex.

He was pissed you fucked your SIL?

That was strange...

[YoungCounty 165]

No. They were not too happy with my sex load on the sheets they have to sleep on.

Like you setup a bed in the house in your office for them to sleep on and while they were there had sex on it instead of your own?  That’s pretty cold blooded.  Lol

[YoungCounty 165]

My office is right next door to my house. 
 

Office has 6 rooms. 3 I use as offices. The other three I use as bedrooms when people come to visit. 
 

Tons of kids at house, lots of adults drinking. No. No way to have sex in our own bed. 
 

So, wife and I walked next door to office to get new sheets on bed for in-laws.  Had sex instead.

Correct. My folks and in laws get along very well and we do combined thanksgivings most years (either at folks house or my in laws).

I consider myself an only child now as my brother has completely abandoned the family and hasn’t spoken to my parents or I in 12 years. That’s a story for another thread 😂 

[Telegraph_it 3357]

I managed to get my wife to watch the season finale of Andor last night on an iPad. We were snuggled up in some bed from the depression area, if I had to guess, that is bigger then a double but smaller then a queen!? I don’t know, it was a mind fuck, and uncomfortable as hell. My “side” of the bed had lost all supporting characteristics around 1989 or so. I’m fairly certain it did something to my back that is going to make today suck. 
 

Anyway, my wife has never watched Star Wars anything. I was super pumped because Andor is amazing and I thought for sure she would have to admit this is some quality streaming goodness. Haha nope.

Happy “Pie for Breakfast” Day!

[Celery Man 20931]

Churchy sister had pregame dinner Wednesday night. Among non family friends that were there were some church friends - mom, two autistic sons, daughter who is close to my nephew. Dad and aunt (who may not have met or seen these guests) somehow talking about pandemic stuff and get into a whole thing about antivaxxers, autism, higher covid death rates among these type of people. Sister is turning red and diving in to move the conversation - the dad for this family was apparently not present as he died from being an antivaxxer within the past year or two.

SIL and BIL…Jesus…they’re 40 years old and brought literally ALL of their clothes to wash because they live in a house with no running water. Remember the big freeze we had over a year and a half ago? They haven’t fixed their pipes. They “shower” outside with a garden hose.

We all went (my wife, FIL, my son, and I) went to do a turkey trot this AM.

BIL was still in bed when we left (left at 8:30), called at 9:30 while we were running the fucking race and told my SIL to stop at the grocery store and get him some ice cream because he doesn’t like the stuff my in laws have. Also told her that he needs cherry coke to mix his drinks with. When I got here at 11, he was already passed out and drinking. 
 

Oh, he had the keys to a car but is too fucking lazy to drive 5 minutes to the damn gas station.

Turkey on the pit. My parents should be here in a  couple hours.

Since our parents live in the same town and we have the only grandkid, we typically split the kid two nights with my folks and two nights with hers. I took my son out to my in laws this morning and put the turkey on and hung out/helped get dinner together. I told my wife that I’d be taking our son back to my folks house and just crashing there.

We get back to my folks house at 7:15 tonight and as I pull in the driveway, my dad is coming out and putting a suitcase in his truck, my mom is following him…I’m thinking - the fuck is doing on here? I get out of the car and my mom says that my dad is pissed off at her and is leaving. OK - I go inside with my son because I don’t want him to be around that kinda shit.

Come to find out that my mom called him out on his weight, doting on my aunt (my aunt is like a child and my dad treats her as such), and various other things in the one hour since they left my in laws and I showed up at their house. Apparently he packed enough shit to leave for a week but ended up coming back inside after about 10 minutes.

I can’t make this shit up.

My dad was still pissed this morning and accidentally backed into my car, side swiping my entire drivers side rear quarter panel.

He’s moping around still, getting irritated with everyone. I just decided to leave in the middle of the game and go to my in laws. Tired of his winy bullshit.

My partners’s 20 year old cousin became a fentanyl casualty on Wednesday night so this week has been the absolute worst. He was like a little brother to her. My MiLs boyfriend doesn’t seem to give a shit or offer any empathy or condolences and just dipped to Galveston. I’ve still managed to drink beer and bourbon and watch all the sports with the dogs so it’s been okay considering.

I have to say being alone in this giant mansion did not start off well.

I chose a life of solitude a long time ago, but I'd never felt crushing loneliness like I did the other day. I reached out to a friend and she told me about a friend's giving going on that I would be welcome at. So I grabbed a bottle of wellers and and hit that up. 

Just a couple hours there did me a world of good and got my mind straight.

Watched every game of the world cup except usa vs butter teeth. Fuck Portugal and their flopping asses. I hope they get eliminated.

Went to the game with the best seating I've had in a decade. Met some first timers from Canada, so it was a lot of fun sharing all of our traditions and telling them stories about Vince, Earl, and Ricky. 

Now I'm up way too damn early and thinking about a breakfast beer.

Just got the download from the wife's grandma that the Louisiana uncle announced during her visit that he has prostate cancer. He refuses to go to the doctors because they are the ones that gave him the covid shot that caused the cancer in the first place.

[YGIFS 19449]

to be fair to your uncle, that was a weird location to insert the syringe.  /nojudgement

Saw my "just doing my own research about JFK, Jr." cousin and her family before T-Day.  No real talk of politics other than a few jokes about Adler and Walker.  

I can't believe I did 4 days with the in-laws, who are otherwise lovely and christian people, without any politics.  Was stunned.  Shocked.  I knew we'd watch football, but the thing we watched most after that wasn't cable news, it was World Cup.  

Was at a group breakfast this morning of an economic think tank of a certain tilt, and we just discussed monetary and fiscal policy, no real heated politics.  

Fielding calls this workweek at night from Mom and Sister about holidays.  And nothing about "What do your girls want for Christmas...if we even still have a goddamn country?"  It was just honest questions about gifts and when to setup zoom times and hide Elf 'n shit.  

This last week has been fucking surreal.  Something's going on and y'all aren't telling me about it.

Yea the past week has been awful. My wife is broken. His 16 year old brother found and revived him to no avail. He was super close to his older sister and his dad. It's so devastating for the family. I bought her a slew of christmas gifts to make her feel better including a guitar and amp she's wanted to learn how to play the guitar.
