Small rant, feel free to tell me to shut up and stop feeling sorry for myself Hmm

It was my sisters bday 3 weeks ago. My mum/ sisters boyfriend/ my sister were constantly asking me what we were going to do for it (I.e. expecting me to organise something) so, in between running a business, a house and looking after 2 kids, a dog and 2 horses - on my own- I arranged a meal, got friends together etc and a lovely time was had by all. It’s my birthday tomorrow and yet no bugger thinks to arrange anything for me, they’re messaging asking what we’re doing/ where we’re going! Nowhere is the answer 😬😂
Sorry. I know there are bigger problems in the world just sometimes feel like everyone relies on me and I’m constantly holding everything together. Be nice if someone just offered to take the reins once in a while 🤷‍♀️

Thing is, you are the organiser, they know this - ask you to organise, you say hokay, everyone has a super time, next event rolls around, ask you to organise and on it goes.

Channel Zammo. Just say no (NO!).

Just say 'oh, I don't have time to sort anything. If anyone else fancies organising something, I'd be up for it'

And see what happens then

Ask them why you have to organise something for yourself. Tell them you want them to organise a party.

Try talking to them and when they don't organise anything refuse to do one for them in future.
