So FH was kinda excited because my shower is this weekend and his parents were going to come up for the second time since he's been living here (3 years). They were going to stay the weekend and while his mom was at the shower he was going to spend time with his dad (the only other normal member of the family) but now the mother decided that she's going to fly in on her own on Saturday morning at 8:30 and then her flight out is at 7:30 that night. And she told him she doesn't have time to get a gift so he has to do it. (She doesn't work she could have taken care of this two months ago when she got the friggin invitation).
So now he's kinda bummed because he was looking forward to showing them Long Island in the summer time and getting to spend time with his father and now he's barely even going to see his mother. All this does is give him extra stress about making sure he gets her on time from JFK then he has to bring her to East Islip and then come back to bring me to the shower and now he's freaking out and annoyed (a great combo) trying to find whatever it is she said she wants to buy us. I told him to tell me what it is and I'll track it down for him. He's pissed she waited to ask him to do this at the last minute because apparently the thing she said she wanted to get is not avaialble in stores and there is no time to order anything and she's getting mad at him.
I just feel bad for him because they always pull this crap. He was so excited to take them to the wineries and do outdoorsy stuff and now all he has is a headache. I really can't stand this woman. Nothing can ever just be an enjoyable experience. It's like she goes out of her way to figure out how to make things as difficult as possible for him.
