#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#FONT color=#0060bf#ed_cl#Little bit of a rant...sorry...#ed_op#/FONT#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#FONT color=#0060bf#ed_cl#My mom and aunt (her sister) have been fighting lately. It is all because they play on a volleyball circuit together. Part of it is that they have to pick their own teams, and each is a co-captain of their team. My aunt has a good friend who also plays...and she was not picked on any team this year. She tried to get my mom to pick her, tried to get her own co-captain to pick her...but i guess she sucks because no one wants her on their team. #ed_op#/FONT#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#FONT color=#0060bf#ed_cl#So what it's come down to, in the short version, is that my aunt's friend is #ed_op#EM#ed_cl#furious#ed_op#/EM#ed_cl# with my mom, and my aunt is too. They have both put her in a position saying that they will not go to her New Year's Eve party if the other is there. It came to a head tonight when my mom spoke to her (now i DON'T know 100% what was said; i wasn't there, right) but apparently my aunt told her she is not welcome in her house anymore, and if her friend sees her again she will have words AND fists for her :-/ So my mom cornered me tonight when I went over there for a visit and told me to PICK - TO CHOOSE - who I am going to have Christmas and New Years with. My natural response is, "its' between you guys, leave me out of it. I will go to both homes." and apparently that's not good enough. My mom told me if i even go to my aunt's i will not be welcome back at my mom's for Christmas - WTF!! As if i don't have enough on my plate...So ya i told her who punitive and petty she is being, not liking being put in a compromising position, but then quite consciously putting her own kids into that position. #ed_op#/FONT#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#FONT color=#0060bf#ed_cl#All this over a stupid volleyball game ...#ed_op#/FONT#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#FONT color=#0060bf#ed_cl#Anyway...that's my rant...thanks for listening. #ed_op#/FONT#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#
