emails with mom
I emailed Mom:
What days were you thinking about going and coming back from bham?
Just in case im looking at flights too, like leaving weds coming back on saturday and its about $300
Mom:
you are correct on the days - or come back Sunday - however it goes
$300.00 is too much money - $200 is reasonable.
Are you worried about spending one extra day with us??
The idea is too relax and enjoy time with family.
Me:(and added in my sister cause it applies to her too
sounds like you are pressuring me to relax
you realize that is counter productive...right?
my ulcer is acting up, im not drinking too much
i never drink that much, you should know that, i go out, but nurse 1 drink or slow it with soda or water in between
holidays are not relaxing, they never have been
i like spending time with family
like in florida
i like spending time when i visit ohio
holidays are stressful, everyone is high strung, including me
I used to visit you guys twice a year
i am visiting much more often now but i still get shit like "dont you want to spend time with us, one more day would kill you?"
thats stress not fun, and when i do visit, its not enough, sister didnt get her time, you didnt get your time, and when i am alone with you i get lots of remarks on jeff....also not fun
i try to keep things light and fun, and do stuff together
i do want to come see you guys, I DO come and see you guys, and besides the guilt I get, I DO enjoy spending time with you
