Basically my MiL and FiL have agreed to have our three children next May whilst I take dh away for three days to the Lake District. I wanted to really treat him considering it's his birthday and we haven't had a night out I thisbjosie alone in over 4 h'years and we've had a really shit year. I found an absolutely stunning hotel in Ambleside, it has every mid con, ie jacuzzi, stunning decor, circular rotating bed (lol), whirlpool bath that lights up and has a docking station so that you can playing lovely romantic music, mood lighting throughout the suite and best of all a completely free cocktail bar and mini bar.
Now like I said I've splashed out and it has cost me £840 for the weekend. Now to us that is slashing out as we aren't well off, at all but I've got 8 months to save up for it and we only have to pay on arrival (already paid £200 deposit) so it is doable. But I told my sister about it and all I got was hostility and her quizzing me about "how on earth we would afford it" and why why would I want to spend so much! I can't help feel a bit peeved with her as she's knows it a special occasion and what's more, it's got nothing to do with we really has it? It's like she never wants us to be happy as one odd occasion we've had something nice come out way she's always had something negative to say, so Aibu to rather peeved?
