To each his own, so let me begin by saying if you disagree with me, it's fine.
This is just how I FEEL.
It's not meant to be right/wrong, I just want to vent a touch.

Today is/was my Dad's birthday. He died 8 years ago in July.
However my sisters and others insist on "celebrating" his birthday.

Which means every year, I'm treated to a string of "Happy Birthday" texts on this day.
(Whoever invented group texts, I loathe you).

My one sister, yearly, this is not an exaggeration, makes a birthday cake, and has her kids sing Happy Birthday to their dead Grandfather.

I loved my Dad. But I feel this is too much. Of course,vi can't say anything. I'm already the black sheep of the family for...well you name it.
I just feel like they are participating in some sort of "I miss him the most" demonstration.

Thanks for reading this if you made it this far.
It's not a big thing. It's quite small in the grand scheme of things.
It just bothers me, and I wanted to vent.
