MIL has invited us over on Sunday. I accepted, said as long as the weather is nice then that would be lovely. She asked if we'd like a roast. I thanked her but said not to worry, we wanted to see her not have her in the kitchen cooking while we're outside. Well, you'll be in the kitchen with me, she says. No, I won't, I say. She asks why, I tell her because the rules are that you can meet in gardens but not inside houses. She then goes in to a rant about how over the top I'm being, I'm keeping her grandkids from her, she'll speak to DH and she's sure he'll agree.
I'm just getting really sick of this. I've followed the rules completely the whole time and I'm planning to continue following them because it's what I believe is the best thing for my family and our situation. There are medical issues which make this even more important to me. Both sides of our extended families have broken the rules in one way or another and that's absolutely their own choice. But I'm now being made to feel like I'm being ridiculous for refusing to do the same. Am I?
