@veronicajohn We started trimming our tree on Thanksgiving in the morning, as soon as the turkey went into the oven, per tradition. We have several trees and TONS of holiday decor, I absolutely love the holiday season and so do my hubby and youngest daughter. But my oldest 13 f has zero interest right now except for she send to enjoy hating things that bring other people joy.
Anyway she slept until 1:30 on thanksgiving and I woke her up so she could have turkey with us. She expressed being "astonished" that we "decorated the tree without her!?!?" To which I said, we're not even finished with one tree yet there's plenty to do. She grumbled and was quite offended.
Later that evening as we started in last box of ornaments and the last little dining room tree, I went to ask her if she wanted to help trim the last tree.
You would think I asked her to scrape barnacles off an ocean liner. How could I possibly think she would want to DO STUFF WITH US it's her thanksgiving too and she wanted to enjoy it and I keep finding ways to ruin it.
So it sounds like both of us are vying for Worst Mom of the Year, fingers crossed
