We talked about that and I was fine with spending three hours there. It was last night when she decided she wanted to stay longer. Like I said, I have no issues being around her family for short amounts of time but a while is hard.They all fight and no one gets a long. It usually has my fiance and I arguing due to something that happened there after we leave.

Why not compromise?

Talk to her and suggest that you spend an hour or two with her family so she can see the people she only sees once or twice a year then (with or without her)  go spend the rest of the evening with your family.

So do you actually think you are going to do this every holiday for the whole time you are married?

My best friend of 35 years is dying in the ICU and probably won't live to see sunset today...does that count?

I hear the cafeteria at the hospital is serving turkey and dressing today, that's where we'll be eating.


Dear God, I can't believe I just shared that with the entire forum. If anyone got some spare prayers they could share this morning, he could sure use them now.

Rough So Far. Wife Been Up Sick All Night
View Quote


I hear ya.  We're both sick here.

I was up for three hours coughing.  Just got out of bed and have a 1.5 hour drive ahead of me.

Wife isn't going, but is still up cooking food (for MY family).  Bless her heart. Told her I would do it, but she insisted.

Just called Mom and told her me and my boy were heading up when we got ready.  She was happy to hear that.

Haven't missed a Thanksgiving in decades.

Nice way to spend Thanksgiving.

However, your stand is pretty well wide out in the open there buddy.  Maybe pull it back into the treeline, can't tell what's behind you but you appear to be pretty highly silhouetted.

Good luck, I ended my season with a smallish six pointer last week (only deer in range of my bow all season long).

Lesseee......



Eyes slammed open at 3:06am.  Made coffee, surf'd ARFCOM for two cups worth.  Wife woke early...uh oh...did I make some sort of noise?  Nope, she woke all on her own at 4:15am.



Meh, it was dark out.  Ya really whoda thunkit at 4:30am?  So I crawled under the house to put insulation back up between the floor joists.  The bathroom/laundry room swap is nearly complete so I was just being thorough.  I also put noodles on the new copper plumbing.



Following all that fun, it was time to vacuum the crawl space.  Yep, you read that right.  Vacuum the crawl space.  It's a smoothed concrete floor & needed the clean up after all the boring, cutting & such from the plumbing, vent & drain moves.



Dear wife has been in the kitchen making prep's for a traditional dinner.  As I was getting the folding tables & chairs out for her family's customary arrival at noon, I was informed by Dear wife that dinner will be 4:30pm this year. WTF? This is the crew that almost ALWAYS has Thanksgiving dinner at noon - 1pm tops.



Turns out the 4:30pm time was selected by drama queen multisexual nephew Benjamin.  BTW, he now insists on being addressed as Behn.  Behn is visiting his latest boyfriend's family for the day.  He said "hopes to get there by 4:30 but it'll probably be later".



I do not understand why worthless college drop out - no job Behn needs to be coddled.  That twerp will no doubt spend much of his time with his face plastered into his iphone texting or facebooking the lastest tragedy in his life.  ALL OF IT SELF INFLICTED.





So my only hope is to OD on tryptophan and nap the late day away.
May GOD's guiding hand bring peace to you and yours PP.

Lets see:

Start work.
Emergency transport to Cath Lab for PT who has literally died 3+ times already and has end stage disease in heart and kidney's. Family wants everything done.

Called STAT for my patient who "fell" because of "coughing fits". Nope, he fell because he decided cocaine would be a nice holiday celebration and smashed his head. Now I need to deal with his drug abuser personality who is hostile to all staff. Asked to get a psych consult.

My morbidly obese patient who comes to the hospital twice a month is back. Still hasn't lost weight. Still hasn't quit smoking. Still takes his CPAP off at night. Still not following MD orders.

On the bright side I know that as soon as our food gets delivered for our Thanksgiving Dinner my cath lab patient will be rolling out so I can look forward to some cold food.

LOL

You aren't ready to be married.  Thats a HUGE part of marriage.  You don't have to like them, you dont even have to talk to them much.  You can even talk shit about them (when youre not around them lol) with your fiance/wife (if she agrees) but at the end of the day, if she wants to go see them your ass HAS to come along too.  Otherwise youre being a lazy POS deadbeat who doesn't support his wife.  Notice I didn't say his wifes family.  I said his wife.  Because thats what it is.  You put in your time with her family for HER not for them.

But my nephew is a hoot and I only get to see him every few years so that makes up for it.


My mom did that too me once and I told her to leave if she wasn't enjoying her visit and if she had no say in how I lived my life as long since I wasn't a felon meth-head junkie like her youngest son. That shut her up quick. She went back home a couple of hours later. She hasn't neen for a visit since.

Nicely done!

My oven crapped out last night. So we had to borrow a big roaster for the bird. Friggin' GE.

Lets see:

Start work.
Emergency transport to Cath Lab for PT who has literally died 3+ times already and has end stage disease in heart and kidney's. Family wants everything done.

Called STAT for my patient who "fell" because of "coughing fits". Nope, he fell because he decided cocaine would be a nice holiday celebration and smashed his head. Now I need to deal with his drug abuser personality who is hostile to all staff. Asked to get a psych consult.

My morbidly obese patient who comes to the hospital twice a month is back. Still hasn't lost weight. Still hasn't quit smoking. Still takes his CPAP off at night. Still not following MD orders.

On the bright side I know that as soon as our food gets delivered for our Thanksgiving Dinner my cath lab patient will be rolling out so I can look forward to some cold food.

Sounds like the place I work.

Since we don't have any family coming down this year, I opted to work at 2.5x pay and she is getting caught up on orders. We cant travel far with our special needs son so we don't usually go out of town.
We went to see a movie last night at Alamo Drafthouse and got a pretty good buzz going on. Tonight we are just going to rent a movie off AT&T on demand and have a few beers. Oh and we got a good size rib-eye roast from Costco that have been cut up into proper 1.75" thick steaks. Those are gong on the grill when I get home tonight.

going to her fathers house early to help get thing ready for thanksgiving, my wife backed into my car trailer crushing the quarter panel in on her car.... what are mirrors for?...oh that right she hit the Van and knocked her passenger side mirror off yesterday. I have been parking that van and trailer in the same spot for 20 years and she will hit it at least twice a year.
