Thanks Job. I realized I was hungry and stressed and shut my mouth. Stopped talking, got something to eat and let it go.

Honestly, we had crazy busy, nice birthdays and the reality... Those folks are wackadoo. By stepping away, they save us all a ton of grief. We can go on our merry way--maybe Louisa didn't get $1,000 worth of gifts, but she got to go to the Biltmore, eat sushi for dinner, hang with a good friend, watch the new Jungle Book and eat ice cream cake without the pressure to be nice to some really mean, selfish people.
