Happy Easter?

I realize I'm about to sound like I'm five years old, but I don't care. My family, especially my mom has always been about tradition. Birthdays, Christmas and Easter have always been the same. Birthdays always have the same streamers and birthday sign hung up, Christmas has always started with a note outside mine and Cameron's doors saying something about not going out to the family room until mom and dad said so. Easter was actually much of the same, we had to wait to see what the Easter Bunny brought us. Naturally, as we got older, the presents changed and we don't wake up as early now, but the point is, holidays are still fun even though I'm 22 and Cam's 18. That is until this weekend. Ok, I know that eventually we all grow up and this stuff wasn't going to go on forever, but, I needed it this year. I needed things to be normal. It would be ok if it changed next year, Cam will be in college, living in the dorms and I'll probably be living in an apartment somewhere, depending on where I get a job. Things have to change, but I don't understand why I couldn't have that for one more year. It's not just the fact that there was no note on the door this morning, I had to dye the eggs by myself last night, by 9:00 my dad was asleep on the couch, Cam was asleep because he didn't feel well and my mom was asleep, even my dog was sleeping. So, I dyed the eggs and then watched tv. This morning I woke up, our Easter baskets were out with the candy and a couple dvds, but there was no note telling us to stay out of the family room. So I walked out and my dad was on the computer playing online poker, his new hobby. Mom was in the kitchen reading the paper. I walked in, and she said, "good morning." Not, "Happy Easter" or "Why are you out here?" nada. Ok, I know this sounds stupid and not worth getting upset over, but I am. I just needed things to be normal for one more year. In my family, holidays are always important, it's not necessarily the presents anymore, but the tradition and the game of it all. Ok, I sound so selfish and stupid.

It's not just Easter being different, something isn't right here and no one will tell me what it is. Mom has just been pouting and apparently she has some sort of health problem, but she won't tell anyone what it is. She took me shopping yesterday afternoon and said she was in a bad mood, but wouldn't elaborate on it. When I tried to ask dad later, he just said he didn't know, but she'd been in a bad mood for a while and whenever he brings it up she just gets mad. I don't really know what to do. I'm just really sad that things have changed this much when I just needed something to be normal.
