My Mil can be the most tactless of people at times. Blundering on in a laughy/jokey way. I wonder sometimes whether she actually knows she's doing it though and it's really deliberate.
She has about tow or three breaks or holidays a year. Well good for her. Really, that's fine. She's also big on lunches and days out. Whoopie doo.
The chances of us having a nice relaxing break are nil and she knows it. Well ok, we've got a young family and all that but even so, you can dream.
So why, why when she goes away does she have to ring up from whichever far flung 'fantastic' venue she's at to tell us about all about it in graphic deatil every sodding time?? 'It's lovely.' 'Great for families' 'You'd love it here' 'I love it here' On and on and on it goes while I'm surveying the irorning and washing pile.
She's away for 10 days atm. Only ten days. But she's rung up twice. Dh has only just put the phone down on a 25 min call which must've cost the earth. She's back Monday fgs.
I am sick of having my nose rubbed in her bloody holidays.
Thank you for listening and yes I'm jealous too!
