Well today didn't start out like all the other Sabbaths. It was pretty rough. Everyone knows that we are planning to go to Hawaii but my dads wife (i can't call her step mom) doesn't seem to what us too. Well that doesn't surprise me the least, she's hated me way back when they first got married (so like 12 years). When you see family, you let them know. So we emailed the fight info. to my dad (but as i found out it's a family email, so his wife can read it too) and later that night we received a email from Lisa (my dads wife). But we didn't read the email until this morning. The email said that she wasn't informed about us coming out and that her family will be town so we need another place to stay. As you can tell i made it a little nicer than it really was. The first thing we wanted to do was call her up and yell at her, but we didn't. I wrote an email asking why doesn't she want us to be there for her daughters wedding. And asked why she was bitter, probably not the best thing to do! Then I went in my room and said a prayer for me to love her and for her to love me. And i thought, i accepted all of this from her but not from my dad. He should have told her that we were coming out and we were planning on staying in their home. And he didn't. But it's fine cuz we are still planning on having a wonderful time in Hawaii. So please pray for there to be more love in the world.

Raelynn,
So sorry about your sucky day. My parents divorced when I was 4, and I've had my share of step-parent trauma. I'm so sorry that your dad's wife is being difficult. Hang in there. :)
Yuck! That does sound like a rough day. Family "politics" are never fun. Is it just me or does it seem like its impossible for everyone to be happy. Seems like no matter what decision is made someone complains about it. I feel for you. Go have fun in Hawaii anyway - try to forget about the drama. :) Good luck!
