huh??
I'm sitting here wondering why the 'rules' only apply to some of us and not all of us. I can't find a good answer- maybe someone can tell me what it is!
So my MIL pests and asks us over and over when we will come visit. And wants advance notice. Fine- I don't want to just show up and surprise you either. But just found out that my inlaws (who we JUST spend 9 days with) will be coming to stay with us on Friday. Uhm, a week notice?? I get why they are coming- we have a family picnic this weekend and they need a place to stay. Fine- but we have all known about this picnic for months. Maybe it would have been nice to mention you were planning to stay with us before.....hubby and I are smart enough to figure out that a family picnic is coming, you live out of town so you are probably staying with us- but I should not have to figure it out. I should be given the same advance notice they want from us.
This bugs me- is it just me or would it bug you too?

did I write this?? Yes, I can totally relate to this... we have the same issue with my in-laws. They bug us until we give in and pick a date to go to see them and then say... oh and we are coming up to see you this weekend (if we are lucky we get a week's notice)
i have learned that rules are differnt depending on who u are. it bites big time.
what do u do?
Rules are always different for MIL's...no rules apply to them. I'll be submitting a stories, or maybe a series of stories soon.
I love this blog.
