We usually have all my family (12 total) at ours for Christmas dinner. This week MIL has asked us to go there for Christmas dinner, DH explained that we'd made plans. End of discussion... Nope!
SIL then calls DH and the basic gist of the conversation is that DH will loose his family if we don't go there for dinner [hmmm]
Cue DH being stressed and worked up to the point of losing his rag re what to do.
I have agreed to give backward and uninvite my family 2.5weeks before Christmas and tell them to fend for themselves. (we have the most room hence them coming here, no one else has room for us all!)
All I ask in return is that DH asks/tells PIL to put the 3large dogs that I am allergic to upstairs for a few hours so that I too can enjoy Christmas day.
I usually only go to PIL for an hour or so and take antihistamines but on CD with all the excitement/kids/gifts etc and the fact that we will be there a good few hours I just know that my allergy will flare up big time therefore making me uncomfortable/miserable. We are currently TTC and christmas falls right in the middle of 2WW so I don't really want to be taking antihistamines at this time..
Hope this makes sense!! AIBU?
