Help me keep my sanity this week

[Hecketyheck]

Before I start, just as a disclaimer, I realise I am lucky to have both a lovely mum and a lovely mother-in-law. I love them both dearly, independently and in small doses.

That said, they are both here this week, together, in my house, driving me crazy. I work from home so I've decamped to a café today.

I'm dreading going home!

They are here as DS has a major school production and they are both here to see that, and DH is playing in a concert too, so that's another day. Neither of them live within spitting distance so they are having to stay.

Give me hope for the next 24 hours! (After that my mother leaves and I just have my MIL to cope with for 3 more days.....)

for you OP. I always think when my MIL and my mother are both in town it's like when two Dr Whos meet. It just shouldn't happen. Time is broken and the earth spins the wrong way on its axis.

Does that cafe do B&B accommodation?

Strength and honour anyway. (We're sure they're both lovely, really but we sympathise in a first world problems way)

Liking the Dr Who allusion

Wine is the solution.

When mine are together it's a big 'Nana Off' about who can get DS's attention the most. I wouldn't mind but he's nearly 14 now.

Big "nana-off" I love it. My mum always takes back seat which annoys me as MIL is sooooo clucky it makes me want to scream. And yes, to the Dr Who allusion. Anyway, we survived, all of us, with our sanity mostly intact.....
