So I had a big blowout with my sister (also a bridesmaid) Friday, not really a blowout, she told me that a check that she wrote me bounced for a second time and I hung up on her. Mind you, this is the second time that I have deposited this piece of rubber and the second time that it bounced back harder than a Pittsburgh Steeler line backer.
Then, Saturday, my mom calls me and basically takes her side, saying that my sister called her, and my mom is "not taking sides, but she did tell me to deposit the check as soon as I got it"! WTF? I got MAD!!! I went off telling mom how my sis is just irresponsible and she never has to take responsibility for her screw ups, and for the check to bounce when I deposited the second time and called her before I did it to make sure that the money was there was completely out of line. When I realized that I was yelling at my mother (and infront of my daughter, no less) I apolgized, said that I was upset and I would call her when I calmed down. But when I tried to call her back, she didn't answer the phone. And she still hasn't called my back. I am mad that mom is holding me accountable for a situation that should not be in my lap.
Then, TODAY! My cousin's wife texted me and told me that her and my cousin can't be in the wedding bc of summer school at the college. i totally understand their situation and I support them in school. I am just frustrated that I am back in this situation.
I even took the weekend off of planning so that I could recharge my batteries. I am at my wit's end. This means it is definitely time for a break. So I am going to try to take a little while more off to get my head together and decide what to do with these new developments.
