[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 393145, member: 84"] Yeah, have to tend to agree about Holiday Martyrdom Syndrome, sounds like auntie dear has a major dose. easy child has a harried xmas at best. She gets up at the crack of dawn (literally) to get over to her mother in law's for this huge family breakfast. They open presents after breakfast. Then she and her husband drive home so the boys can open their own presents. Then they come here for xmas dinner at noon, then back to mother in law's at dinnertime for supper. There have been several years I have opted to have xmas dinner on xmas eve just so she wouldn't have such a chaotic schedule xmas day. Usually by the end of the day easy child and sister in law are stressed to the max, the boys are tired and unhappy they weren't able to play with their toys at all. I don't understand why easy child doesn't tell mother in law to take her xmas breakfast and shove it personally, as I would have years ago. Once a day I understand. But early morning breakfast AND supper? No. I think there is also a Holiday Martyrdom Syndrome with guests as well. easy child is one of them. ugh [/QUOTE]
