Okay, so this is the deal. I am having about 30+ folks over to the house for Turkey Day. My brother is coming with his wife and 7 kids. . . . or so I thought. (He was supposed to bring the Publix cake)
He backed out because he doesn't like the fact that I am friends with his ex-mistress who had a baby by him that his trifling ass doesn't take care of. He is mad that not only do I stay in touch with him, his son calls my hubby daddy. He is upset that I am having him over to meet the rest of our family tomorrow. I wasn't at first, but then again, everyone knows about the baby so stop hiding him.
His wife took him back but wants him and my family to not have any contact. As a woman, I think that is a trifling thing. I really don't do him or his wife, but our grandfather died 2 months ago and this is our family's way of honoring him by everyone getting together.
Even my crackhead auntie and uncle are coming and I really don't want them there but this is bigger than me. Should I renege on having my nephew over and try to convince my brother to come over? Should I say eff my brother and his wife and bring my nephew? I am confused. I don't have to be anonymous as I will answer any questions that come up on the comments. Thanks!
