To underline BERKS ( in red) on the envelope on in-laws christmas card?

[endofanera]

DH family are really narcissistic. They are obsessed with money and status. They have given me such a hard time for choosing to look after dd full time ( dd has a disability and has been in and out of hospital for over a year). They have given us no support, only judgement - must be my bad gene's apparently :0
DH grandma died a while ago and i was duped into not attening the funeral, along with dd. DH is sort of aware of what is going on, i dont want to talk about it too much with him, as it causes row's and we are under enough stress with dd's health problems.

Anyway, just recieved christmas card that was clearly just for dh, then another one just for dd. I have been dignified in all of their nonsense, but not any more!! Game on!

whatda think?

Spelt Berks. But pronounced barks :-)

It's Berkshire. Abbreviated to Berks (although I hate abbreviations but that's just a pet hate of mine). But I don't know anyone who pronounces it Berks (around me, that is). I actually find a Berks pronunciation makes me cringe.

It took me a while to get it so I'm sure it is a waste of time for PIL - especially when it is always pronounced Barks.

Would make me cringe to. I live where the abbreviation is Whit. Dont mind that so much. I must admit to never really seeing the "Berks" side of it, in the capacity that i mean it to be, in this particular situation. Only struck me out of anger.
TTFN, LOL, IYSWIM [cringe] - no smiley for that
Thankyou for clearing the Berks/barks debacle for me.

I think the aunties card doesn't sound like a slight, since its not addressed to anyone.

Spend the voucher on some new knickers so DHs in laws can kiss your arse so to speak

I really don't understand why you think the card is just for DH? I doubt the Berks thing will be noticed and is a bit pathetic IMO so I wouldn't do it but hey if it makes you feel better...

Pity they don't live in S cunt horpe!

I'm wondering how you were duped into not attending the funeral? Surely your dh would know when it was?

If it didn't say who it was to (and could well have been to both of you) it seems you're just looking for something to upset you.

It may sound like im being oversenstive

Tbh you sound like a bit of a loon. Plenty of people write cards without names in. Take a deep breath and try to chill out a bit.

If it doesn't have either of your names on it then i dont see how you came to the conclusion that it was only meant for DH!

Sil sent a card one year addressed to DH and Dc's, my name was completely left off.....now that was an obvious snub!!!

I think you are reading too much into it TBH, but am also interested to know about the funeral thing.

I would pilfer the voucher and spend it on myself , silly bint
