- My mother-in-law: trying to get her to understand that the "boys" were wanting to do something for her & dad's 50th anniversary. I thought she should have some say and for it not to be a surprise since she really doesn't feel all that great -- actually neither does my father-in-law.
- my sister-in-law (married to the second oldest son): Calling her last night after talking to my mother-in-law and conveying her wishes...my sister-in-law informed me that she doesn't want to be a part of the planning after she had talked to the third oldest brother.
- my brother-in-law (the third oldest son): wanted to know why I was chewing him out for not being serious about having a party for his parents. Not to mention he had me on speaker phone was a real trip. I'm sure his wife was listening to it too. So I told him about my mother-in-law's wishes and that he would need to get along with his other 3 brothers to work on this. He asked why I thought they didn't get along...to long of many situtations that always happen at family function where one of the brothers leaves upset.
- my brother-in-law (the oldest son): Called him and was talking to him about what my mother-in-law had suggested especially waiting until after they got back from their vacation (some time in August). While I was talking to him...here come's my husband (youngest son) and he's talking under his breath why I'm making all these calls and why I thought it was my place to bitch them out for not being serious. He then went on to make some generally mean comments.
- my husband (the youngest son): who was the first to realize that this would be their parents 50th and thought everyone should do something. Now he regrets ever starting any of this...we had a huge fight...and went to bed without really talking about it!
So stress, IN-LAW's, what's a girl to do. Why does it always have to be so complicated? I'm so close to the edge I just wished a strong wind would blow hard enough to push me over!
