Before Christmas I had said to my brother and SIL they should come for lunch (we live an hour away and haven't seen them since we went to theirs in Oct). They said that would be great, I spoke to my brother again just before Christmas and he said he would check with SILs shifts and get back to me, I told him the days we were free (pretty much all the time) and said well you choose the day. He phoned me Christmas day, I thanked him for the DCs presents and he said they would come up Saturday and bring chorizo sausage and a cheese board (!).
My Dad took their presents away and they would have opened them late Christmas day, my brother had texted me about my Dad there but no thank you or anything about what my nephew thought of his present (he's only one).
Yesterday I texted him to ak if today was still ok, got no reply but I was out in the morning and bought them lunch, today nothing from them. I don't want to end yet another text.
It's not them not coming up that bothers me (things come up and it's an hours drive in not nice weather) its the not even phoning me to cancel. The DDs have been asking when they are coming up all day, DD1 has made a bracelet for SIL too.
Another thing is I don't speak to my mother, she was emotionally abusive to me yet my brother is her golden child and I assume my nephew is too. I am wondering if she has been meddling but then again they are both adults they should be abe to send a text at least.
