Thanksgiving is back

I am back. I am about to break for the long (Canadian) Thanksgiving Weekend. I guess I do have a lot to be thankful for, and I am. I can see that. It still does not stop those little life annoyances, but it puts them in proper perspective.

We have a wedding this weekend. The Wife's cousin is getting married. My father in law's sister's youngest. I am not sure if the Outlaws will be going. It will be a small affair, yet I forsee the aunt doing her best to turn the day into "all about her". It will be interesting to see if the bride's sister comes in from New York (with or without husband and children). She did not come for her brother's wedding two years ago.

When I say interesting, it is curiosity only. I really could care less if I ever see, or hear her annoying voice, again. Pretentious Cunt is how I see her. At least, there will be booze. Of course, the price for that is to be among the extended Outlaw clan. Let that be a lesson for us all, there is no such thing as a free lunch, or free booze.

Now, I get to go to the Outlaws. My sister in law, brother in law and three of their kids are in from Dayton. I also have to deal with a pissed of Wife. She is pissed off at her sister who changed plans to meet with professionals dealing with my father in law. Originally, the meeting was set for 11 this morning, which would have allowed the wife to go and then pick up the Lad from school. Then her sister changed the time to 2 pm and was going to come into Toronto until today. Not only did she not consult the Wife on that one, she did not even tell her about the changed time. How is the Wife going to sit through this meeting and then get across the city to pick up the Lad at 3:30?

It gets better. At 11 am, the Wife speaks to her sister and they had not even hit the border yet. So, the upshot is this, my sister in law is a tool. She not only changed the time without any consideration for the Wife, but she is not going to be there. Therefore, she royally screwed her sister for no fucking reason. Dumb shit! And now, I have to sleep with a pissed off wife.

It may not be my business, but when it disturbs my life and home, then it becomes my issue. It is at that point, I have EVERY right to open my mouth. Then again, if I do not, nobody else in that family of avoiders will. Save Yourself! That is my motto. I cannot and will not save somebody from themselves. It is always a losing proposition.

I gotta run! I hope that the booze is flowing tonight and all weekend! Ciao and Have a great weekend one and all. Reflect on what you have to be thankful for, you will feel better when you do. Ciao!
