In 18 days I’m going on a trip with my sister, this is our 2nd together. The first was a working trip, this one is for “fun”. I bought my ticket. A month ago she dropped 2 heavy mental things on me. Now I don’t want to go. I’m NOT excited or looking forward to it. I’m actually dreading it, 13 days of pretending 🙄. I can mask with the best of them but for 13 days straight? Idk She expects me to be “proper”, but also wants me to be relaxed and happy. My natural state embarrasses her. I’m tacky apparently. My coworkers & friends think I’m great. Why doesn’t my sister? She only sees me in her environment not mine. She’s never seen me with my friends or even at my home. I should say we’re in our mid 50’s & just in the last 2 1/2 years started to know each other. Honestly if we weren’t sisters I wouldn’t be her friend. She’s a bossy know-it-all, that isn’t open for any discussion or opinion. I’m the younger sister by 16 months. Ugh! I want to stay home!
