Families, you could throttle them at times

A rant im afraid. My middle sister, has really annoyed me. 10 months ago she asked me to be a godmother for her latest baby.(born on my birthday) I was chuffed to bits.This week  she finally got round to setting the date, the 8th of April (Easter sunday) My husband re arranged our travel plans for Scotland, as we had planned and provisionally booked ferries for the 7th of April. So cancelled them and made them for the Monday instead (my eldest b'day)

Any how my mother just let slip that im not a god mother now. She had asked some one else. She argued with my parents saying she never asked me . But the whole family knew she had. I havent told V yet as i know he will say we aren't going at all. My sister is not the easiest person to get on with adnd she always blanks V when she sees him. Her kids though adore my boys so ive always bit my tongue(sp) and have allowed them to play no problems.

She never talks directly when she has something to tell me. If she had phoned up and said some one else is going to be god mother i would have told her i was upset but not make an issue of it.

As it is my mum asked who was going to be the god father along side the god mother. Thats when she shouted at my parents that i had not been asked.So officially ive not been told. I might phone her up and pretend i dont know, just to see how she reacts.But im not like that. Instead i will attend and not cause a fuss.

It just makes me so mad at times .

Apart from that im doing ok.

My assignment has been started but as its an essay on child abuse and corporal punishment by parents its heavy going. It has to be in on the 28th of March so im pleased that ive managed to get the introduction done.

Today the kids have been told its declutter day in their bedrooms. The school has a fair coming up for Easter, so its an ideal oppertunity for the kids to get rid of some stuff.

Ive finished my morning cuppa, so time to get organized.
