I may be totally weird in this, but why do you need to see them?

I invited my mother to Thanksgiving this year, because she really doesn't have anyone else. But after she and my uncle arrived an hour after the time I told her dinner would be served (the second time she's done this - the first time was at a restaurant) and talked on her cell to her sister after dinner, I'm planning to ask her if she'd like me to bring her and my uncle plates of food for Christmas. I can't say she wrecked my holiday because a few years ago we just started eating when we told her dinner would be ready. When they arrived, I warmed up a plate for them. Still....

It may be terribly unfeeling of me, but to me holidays don't need to be torture just in order to comply with some Hollywood notion of family.

My therapist is actually pretty proud of me.
