Well, in an uncharacteristic fit of organisedness, I've made plans for my b'day in December. I've invited my immediate socialising circle; my friends, plus my sisters & their husbands.
When I was making the plans, DH said it was up to me if I invited BIL & his GF, they are our age, they invite me out for their b'day, so, I thought I probably should invite them, and did.
Then, while the boys were at golf today, skating was mentioned and now FIL & MIL, a friend of DH's and his wife are coming, which opens the door to other couples who, really, it never crossed my mind to invite.
I don't suppose it matters if they come or not, but I feel a bit less excited at the prospect of what we have planned now that the IL's are coming.
I suppose I just don't like feeling duty bound to socialise with people I don't usually choose to socialise with, just to keep everyone happy.
Am I just mean and unreasonable?
