because their Son-IL has decided to have a piss up at their house tonight while they baby sit their other (more important??) g-child for the second consecutive night and their daughter has another quiet night at home...
FFS, I don't mind sharing the joy or the help around but the sheepish, 'oh we can't get over when we said' conversations are wearing a bit thin now...especially as it doesn't seem impossible to pile the said g-child and son-il on a train before 10am in the morning - the baby will be up at 6am. How hard is it to get to the fecking station? Are they walking???
Now our w/end arrangements have to be tailored again, and again, and again...DH is miffed, but cannot say, as he is an incredibly loyal son and brother, and I'll be left as the smiling DIL in the middle as FIL talks my ears off about how wonderful his other g/child is and trys to flash around a million photos.
Am running out of positive 'oh, of course that's FINE' comments that don't just sound sarcastic and will have to reign in my gritted smiles tomorrow.
Sorry for the bitch thread, can't talk to my family as they get fed up with in-laws, or DH as he would be well and truly stuck in the middle, and in RL girly friends are out on the lash...
