Sounds like my mom.

We moved from upstate NY (where my parents are) to NJ this summer. My sig. other's parents lived in upstate NY too, until this past July when they moved to Florida. Things were easy when everyone was in the same city!

We went to my parents in upstate NY for 4 days at Thanksgiving. I only have a couple days off from work around Christmas, and we haven't seen his parents new place in Florida at all yet, so we are going down there for a few days around Christmas. I was thinking about trying to go down there for a couple days before christmas, then fly up to NY for christmas, then getting back to NJ to work on Tuesday the 27th, but then I realized I don't really feel like being on a plane for so much time on the whole 5 days I have off for the holidays.

My dad was ok with us not coming to NY for Christmas, but my mom is being nasty to me about it, and expect us to get back up to NY sometime around Christmas. Nevermind the fact that they could come visit us in NJ--!?

It's been stressful dealing with my mom.
