#awi#person#continuation of my unfilial rant to follow#the thing is. theres no shortage of thoughtless gifts from them#they have a... habit let's say. of just grabbing something from around their house and sticking it in a bag et voila!#or they'll just regift which conceptually is fine but like. theyre bad at it#they gave my dad a starbucks giftcard for his birthday which is nice. he loves starbucks!#but they didnt even take the note off it that said 'from [name] to [grandpa]#even stupider is for my mom's birthday they. fucking. photocopied some random picture of her they had lying around#a photocopied. photo. of herself. chosen at random.#i was handsewing a little pumpkin pincushion for my sister last year and my grandma saw and asked me to make one for her#so i did! i even used fancy fabrics in patterns and colors that she picked out#we were helping them clean a few weeks ago and i found it on the floor behind a pile of garbage#i lowkey suspect it hasnt been regifted to somebody else purely because they couldnt see it#i just. im so tired of them#the health and house problems theyve been having arent their fault#and the financial problems arent /entirely/ their fault (they are. so bad. with money. but theyre also old and vulnerable to scammers)#but this personality thing? this dont-put-a-moment-of-thought-or-care into it thing?#thats all them#ive been telling myself for years that the impersonal gifts and meals at restaurants nobody but them likes#was just because they didnt know me v well. my older sister is undisputably their favorite grandchild which is fine she's welcome to it#but ive been arount them much more the past year while helping them deal with the house and health and financial shitshow#and i talk about exactly 2 things when im around them: my cat and star wars#i figured my twin would have zero expectations since they only see her once a year. but i thought#hey. theyve seen me constantly this past year. we've had many conversations. they know how i adore my cat and that im a nerd who's chief#hobby is. embarrassingly. star wars#so this year maybe it wont be impersonable! maybe it'll be a cat or star wars card#or maybe theyll get extravagent if theres a star wars mug at dollar tree or something. half my dishes are from there#but no. slingshot toy for a 4yo. in a minions bag. im tired.
