My aunt felt the need for a family dinner and guess who my parents volunteered to organise it. And guess who is now refusing to do so.
I'm not going through the whole "we want our father (my uncle) to be there" stuff again. It gave my anxiety attacks and I'm sorry, but my messed up family isn't worth that. Plus, I'm not sure if I want to go to the dinner (mostly because I know I will get annoyed with my uncle's children, who sit together and hardly interact with the rest of the family).
My mother tried sucking up, telling me that I did such a good job organising the come together last September to scatter my grandmother's ashes. I acted surprised, telling her that I didn't do a good job, my sister did (I did all the work, my sister got all the credit). Now my mother is disappointed (probably scared she has to organise it herself).
Personally I think it's best if one of my aunt's children arranges it. Although they side with my father about the whole Family Thing they are more neutral than I am.
