Another mud run question and rant

[blackkitty]

Why don't you just get your own room?
And don't let your mom tell you what to do! You are a big girl
You definitely have enough time... as long as it is close to the hotel

At $500 a night, it's not something that I'm willing to waste my savings on for 5 days

Holy shit where are you staying? The Four seasons? Can I come?

Sorry, it was $399 a night plus taxes so not exactly $500

I'll start packing

Oh don't worry,I was whining about having to stay with my family when we went to Hawaii in August, but I couldn't afford to get my own condo/rental car

Yes, my mom keeps throwing the spa at me every time I get upset about going. To be honest, she understands though. It's hard to realize that I'm being treated like a child because of my marital situation. If I was still married XH and I would be going and this wouldn't be an issue. Since I'm not, it's like I'm a kid again and expected to stay with them. I've expressed this to her and she understands why I'm being a whiny brat. Still sucks though.

I can see how this will be stressful, but try not to see it as a negative against the awesome that is being single! It sounds like your new job has you on track to be able to afford your own hotel rooms at family vacations soon! And then it will be because you are an independent success, not just because you are married:)
