we were supposed to go camping last weekend but the weather was going to be bad, so we switched to staying at my brother's place, I took off work thurs and fri. my brother got covid so we switched to this week, so I took off work thurs and fri again. My sister caught a stomach bug this weekend but is mostly better and mom my just texted to cancel the whole thing because "everyone wasn't feeling well" which I'm pretty sure actually means that she's worried about getting farm work done (inferred from other texts about getting stuff done) and didn't actually ask someone to cover the farm stand for this week, so they couldn't possibly leave the farm.
it's so fucking infuriating. especially to have plans change at the last minute
it feels like they aren't willing to make the effort to come and see us. or that the farm comes before anything ever including spending time with their family. I go to the farm all the time, but I'm making the effort. and neither of my siblings go to the farm like I do because they have other stuff they're doing and it isn't as easy to get there for them.
And I get that the farm takes up a ton of time and effort, but they don't have livestock. they simply cannot manage to make time to take three whole days away from the farm the whole season.
I'm now fully out of vacation time since I already planned to take two days off at the end of the month to go to a friend's wedding. I usually bank a bunch up over the winter, but I used most of that in April for women's worlds.
I'm just annoyed and disappointed because their solution is to meet up in November. when we already see each other a bunch around the holidays. I'm already scheduling stuff for November on the weekends and I know I won't have any more vacation days to take off work because I normally use all those days in October for farm stuff.
arg. I'm going to sleep on it before I respond to the text.
