W and D13 / D17 were invited to Christmas Eve dinner at her Dads house since I went to their Thanksgiving dinner with the girls.
W accepted after Thanksgiving, but this past week she called her Dad and told him they weren't coming, claiming that D17 had made other plans for that night. No mention of maybe coming with D13.
Well, D17's boyfriend is Jewish and doesn't celebrate Christmas.
So, W's Dad called D17 to ask her if she had plans and could she change them so they could spend Christmas eve. Of course D17 tells him she has NO plans and would love to go.
W's Dad calls W and tells her this. Now she's caught in a lie. He even gave her the chance to decline if she would rather spend the night with her housemates. From what they told me she was saying how she was 'confused' because she was sure D17 was busy.
Apparently she called D17, for what I don't know, and I'm sure there were fireworks I will hear about later.
So, she calls the house phone again, and neither D13 or I answer. So she calls my cell and I don't answer. She leaves a voice mail and says in a very annoyed tone "Hello Frank it's W. My dad has invited the girls and I to xmas eve dinner. Please let me know if that conflicts with any of your plans"
I waited a bit and texted her "Xmas eve is fine with me, I thought that was your plan all along"
She replied "It was, but D17 said she had plans but now she is available so it's back on".
I never used to like text messaging, but it's so much easier than talking on the phone to her. And I can ignore them when I want to.
Her Dad's a little angry because he feels like she'd rather spend her evening with her friends / OM instead of with him and his family and OUR daughters.
