Yesterday was my birthday and I need to talk about it. Last week I made a messenger group inviting the family to breakfast for my birthday. The only person who responded was my sister Chrissy besides I knew my parents where coming.
For thirty five years of my life my parents always ALWAYS pays for birthday meal. First time in ever I turned thirty six and they didn’t. The reason? The reason being is because Corey and his wife came. They claim that they are poor and can’t pay for themselves which is bullshit! Also they never give me anything they are cheapskates. Would have been nice to know they were coming ahead of time because we got to the restaurant first and only put in for who I knew was coming.
No matter what holiday or even birthday all I get from them is a card. Now I grew up you going to someone’s birthday or even any holiday you give them a gift or money. It really isn’t that hard to do even if you don’t know that person very well. We have a store called the Dollar Tree. Where everything is a dollar plus tax. Easy gift, go to store pick out lotion and if you know the person well enough or even best guess they have all kinds. Get gift bag, card and maybe a trinket there done and it can be five dollars or less.
I was mad because they always get what they want and this was MY birthday. I wanted the attention of MY parents and I wanted to talk to them. Didn’t get a chance to because they came. Ugh!
