So upset right now!
So, two things that have me really really upset:
So, my wedding date is June 21st... We chose that date MONTHS ago and everyone knew about it! Now my aunt tells me that my uncle (her and my mom's brother) is insulted and absolutely horrified at the date that I chose because he realized that it's Father's Day! He says he probably won't come because he always spends Father's Day with his kids. I'm like "HELLO! THEY WERE ALL INVITED TOO!!!" So my aunt spent the entire 20 minute drive from Bed Bath and Beyond to my parents house ranting about this. She is all like "what were you thinking? how could you do this? you made a terrible decision! you're excluding so many people from coming! you better make sure to call anyone that RSVP's and make sure they realize it's Father's Day!"
Now, I hate to sound selfish, but come on, I think that my once in a lifetime event can trump Father's Day for ONE YEAR!!! The ceremony is not until 4pm, which gives plenty of time before hand to celebrate Father's Day with their dads. And seriously! FAMILY has to pull this shit?! You would really rather have a backyard barbeque than be at your youngest niece's wedding?!
The other thing that has me really upset is that we were talking to Mikal's grandmother today and she has informed us that she will not be coming to the wedding because it's too hard for her to get around because of her bad back and arthritis. "WHAT?!" My mother had a stroke in 1996 which rendered her unable to speak and paralized on the right side of her body, and somehow she's able to be there! But fine, okay, if it's THAT much of an imposition on you, then I will respect that. But then she added that Mikal's FATHER will not be attending the wedding because he doesn't want to have to deal with Mikal’s mom! They've been divorced for 22 years, so it's not even like it's a fresh wound thing, not that THAT would make it okay either! UNACCEPTABLE!!! Absolutely completely and totally unacceptable! How could you NOT go to your son's wedding?! Mikal isn't that upset about it because he's pretty close with his stepfather, and that upsets me even more!
I just want to SCREAM! I don't get why people are being like this! And with three and a half months to go, I can't even begin to think about future snags! Sorry this was so long, but I'm SO UPSET!!!
