OP here. What is wrong with me wanting to celebrate on Thanksgiving Day.  I am happy to spend time with family on Thanksgiving Day.  We used to spend every thanksgiving day togehher which I was grateful for and then one year about 6 years ago grandma stops hosting Thanksgiving.  She is in good health and loves to cook so why not spend the day with family.  She has chosen to no longer want to spend the day with us which is offensive to me.   I feel sad when other people ask me my Thanksgiving plans and I have nothing to say.   [/quote]
You're being childish and ungrateful.  Your grandmother hosted Thanksgiving for so many years and decided to do something else, but was still gracious enough to invite the family to celebrate with her the weekend before, and you pout and complain.  Why don't you invite her over for Thanksgiving some time?  I have hosted Thanksgiving for family and close friends and it can be expensive and time-consuming, but I find it worthwhile when friends and family are actually grateful.  If you were my guest with this attitude, I'd be more upset with you than your grandmother is.

Be gracious, accept pleasantly, attend her celebration 4 days early and then have a Thanksgiving dinner at home on Thanksgiving day and invite all of the family that you want to share the holiday with.  Do all the work and then you can complain if the holiday doesn't turn out the way you want.[/quote]
