Are we leaning into Bluesky?
I could probably journal/skeet 20 more posts on this weekend but that’s what therapy is for.

So I understand a bit of the frustration. But it really got to her. They have a very open concept living room/kitchen/dining room so I think any of it being messy sets her off. I admire the thought my mom puts into hosting but I wish she didn’t get so stressed out by it.

My mom crashed out a bit over the amount of people and a some messes made.
At family holidays I try to specifically help without asking and work a few steps ahead to make everything easier. I think there was some poor timing with dish washer cycles and definitely too many cooks in the kitchen.

We don’t generally gather together like this so I noticed there’s not much precedent for how we spend the non meal time together. I’d like to plan ahead next time and get some dominos or poker going I think lol

We just did early thanksgiving and it was the biggest gathering of my extended family since my grandmas memorial. Some last minute additions really filled out the ranks.
