I don't have too much work this week--just a couple things due Thursday. D is going to an all-day camp thing Thursday (though I do have T that day), plus H will take her out some. Or else they could stay here and I'd go out and do work. (I could have just declined to take any work, but I kinda want the money...)

I would want to know what time someone was coming over. Cooking, other things require some planning.
I would tell people we are eating at 1pm - hope you are able to come but if not, see you when you get here.

(this is why I avoid my family on holidays- my parent is fine but I cannot deal with my sibling and his horrible wife and their children on a holiday and how they interact with everyone else).

Oh, I get that. But she tends to do the thing that Jersey just said her mom did, where I might say "How about this time?" and then she's like, "Eh...what about this other time?" Sometimes I prefer they suggest it first, if they have a time in mind. Plus there's a chance my aunt and cousin would be coming over later, and I wanted to know if she'd heard from them, because we'd go later if they weren't coming till, say, 6. (she had, but the time is dependent on when cousin is getting his girlfriend from the bus station or something). It's more a continual thing with my mom, where she obviously has a time in mind, and it's like I have to guess it.

I’m working this week. Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. They are off but asked me to come anyway. So I’ll be working 10 hours on Wednesday, 10 hours Thursday and 10 hours Friday. I don’t know what I’ll do there all day. The kids are not going to want me if their parents are home.

Oh good lord. People can disagree and it doesn't have to be any big deal.
Not everyone is going to be super compatible with everyone.

Ooo lucky you. There's always videos on youtube about how to set games up and to get to the next level.

I have watched some of the videos - just seems a bit odd that they don't just have rules with the games that you can just read. I have looked online and read as well.
I still don't understand the point of most of the games.
I am doing okay with the solitaire I downloaded.

It is a big Couch. There is room for everyone.

I often don’t feel like I belong in the world, but I’m aware that’s my stuff. In reality, I belong in the world as much as anyone else does.

I wonder what my sibling would have done if I sent his kids this info and some whittling knives?
Homemade toys by American kids in the 19th and 20th century show a different era.

Can this dreadful holiday be over already? I am not sure I'll ever love Christmas again.

I don't what game that is. I have a mario bros one, an ultimate smash one, a free pinball one and one rather creepy one about a killer cat put out by peta.
And some one about a dung beetle who is a postmaster.
