Almost Christmas...

[GlamTracy]

AND I am dreading it, this is the time of year where nothing seems to go right for me or MY kids ih the home but perfect for DH's kids.... it's time to give and receive and I am tired of always giving and receiving nothing in the end... or shall i say EVER!

I've been with my DH for over 16 years and not once have I gotten a birthday or Christmas gift from them and it's starting to get on my last nerve and DH never says anything to them. Let alone they dont get me anything but what about their brothers and sister? Can you say GREEDY! I sure can.

While I have always gotten them something as I am the one who does the shopping around here and who goes out an get's everyone their presents I am never acknowledged and it hurts, plus with all the other things that happened recently in my life, this Christmas just feels like it's going to be the worst of them all.

Hi, After 16yrs. it seems like things won't be changing although one must always have hope and never give up. Give and don't expect anything back...from them...but it will come back in other ways, not necessarily from them. That's how I've learned to think and it's been good for me since.
