MIL is in many ways a lovely woman but is a complete pita to have staying over. cant do anything for herself, flaps, panics, makes little digs about the food, cleanliness etc.
I endure this every so often for the sake of my dd.
however, this i am putting my foot down and have said no. DH reckons i am being unreasonable.
context: DD 1st birthday party. lots of family. lots to do, will be quite tiring (on my side of the family we do big parties...)
That week on the monday afternoon I have my last exam for my masters degree so will have studied all weekend. Then 4 days work full time and party on sat afternoon i.e by sat night i will be crackered.
have naturally invited mil to party but have said she cant stay the night. she is not happy. neither is dh.
she lives about 80 miles away, would take normal person 1.5 hours to drive, it takes her about 2.5 hours.
am i being a complete unreasonable cow?
