We are going on holiday next week for one week. My birthday is on one of the days.
I had planned for the three of us (DH and DD) to do something for my birthday.
I've since found out my sister and her family are coming to the same holiday spot for two days.
One of these days is my birthday. Now we are meant to be doing things with them on both days. I like my sister but she is never on time for things and we have to wait around for her and her family to go anywhere and I always end up looking like an uptight misery when I want to make the most of our time away. She always laughs off her lateness saying she is "laid back".
I know I'm being a precious idiot but I really wanted to do the planned activity on my actual birthday. We have now changed it to another day.
What I would really like to do is just say no I want to do things with my husband and daughter on my birthday but I know I will look like a mardy cow.
Also it's taking up two days of our holiday and I'd really just like to spend time just the three of us. We rarely get the chance to all be together what with school/work etc.
I don't know what I want to actually ask now. After writing it all out I know I look like a knob...
If I'd known they were going this week I would have picked a different week for holiday tbh.
AIBU?
Am I being a precious brat?
