Alenee Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 She's coming..........and staying a whole week........and she made the flight reservations and THEN checked with us to make sure it was kosher. At least this year I have a plan. We're going to sew curtains and then hike like crazy. Hopefully this will wear her out. Really, I do love her....but you know the saying about fish stinking after three days.........:001_huh: I think a trip to Trader Joe's for wine will be in order.

nono Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 :grouphug::grouphug::grouphug: And, I'm not a big proponent of this... One year when both my MIL and my parents were at our house and our kids were very little, my dh made me coffee and shoved it in my hands first thing in the morning. I think it had 2 shots of whiskey in it! Guess what....I made coffee the next day, :lol: with only 1/2 shot of something, but it was fun to be "sneaking" around our parents, and taking the edge off a bit! Don't be afraid to be a bit crazy to keep your sanity! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't be afraid to be a bit crazy to keep your sanity! I've suggested the same thing to a friend whose ghastly in-laws descend upon her every year. That, or make them regular meals with Ambien ground up in them, so she can keep them relatively unconscious for the whole stay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
