I've been a passholder on & off for a while now. I took a break this past fall because I knew I wouldn't be able to go until the spring. I recently re-upped my AP and booked myself a solo trip at Yacht Club as a mini 30th birthday gift to myself. I joked to my husband that my gift to him was that he didn't have to go. He doesn't love Disney and I do, so I usually go solo (and have an absolute blast). He'll go with me once a year because he loves me. Anyway, so I booked myself this weekend trip to YC because I scored a sweet deal and then had brunch with my sister (also an AP holder) and her boyfriend (because they're attached at the hip). She excitedly said she would come too. Great! I'd love that because I never get quality one-on-one time with her. Well, apparently "sister" coming actually means "sister and boyfriend". Then I got a phone call from my mom today. She said DS told our dad that the FOUR of us (sister, bf, my husband, and me) were going that weekend. So, my mom calls to tell me that she, my dad, and my little brother are ALSO coming. She also said "I can't wait to celebrate mother's day in disney". So now my solo trip has turned into this huge family event that is also for mother's day? And my poor husband is being guilted into it lol. I just wanted to vent to a group of Disnerds who might understand that I'm kind of disappointed by all this! I also want to add that we all live within 30 minutes of each other, so it's not like I never see my family. Trips with the whole family (like holidays) are 80% people fighting and screaming. :/ Besides hoping all of this falls through, I don't know how to salvage some of my alone time without offending my mom.
