Looooong story.
Short version: MIL turned on the waterworks today and once again had everyone completely changing their plans, putting themselves out and generally being inconvenienced, including ds who has been really ill this week and whom we were trying to keep fairly "quiet" so as not to overtire and make him ill again. All of this met with tight lipped martyrdom and a vague whiff of self righteousness.
Totally fed up at injustice of it all (she has the wrong end of the stick as bloody usual), doubly so because in the background will be a little whispering campaign about how horrible I am. (Currently my turn - SIL has been "it" for a while but I think that has changed for the time being).
It's ANOTHER MIL rant thread so sorry for being boring, and I know that although she's mad and annoying she's not poisonous like many others, just really needed to let off steam.
(anyone else need a free space for a MIL rant? help yourselves!)
thanks for listening, already feeling better
