OMG My in-laws are SO frustrating!!
Every year DH's family vacations together at a small cabin in NC. And every year there is some sort of major drama. It always revolves around the siblings (DH and my SILs) wanting things to be "fair." I'm sorry, but wasn't one of life's major lessons that thing ain't always fair?? This year the big deal is over sleeping arrangements. there are only 2 bedrooms for 4 couples, plus a camper with one bed, the rest are pull out couches/trundle bed in the living room. DH and I specifically requested the camper (where we stayed last year) since I'm not sleeping well and the only other non-pull out couch is our old bed we got rid of because it gives me migraines. Now my SILs are whining about how that isn't fair, and shouldn't we just rotate every year. Meanwhile, sleeping arrangements have never been 'fair' because of various family needs. The first year DH and I were married we got kicked out of the bedroom downstairs because it wasn't 'fair' to not allow his older sister and her husband to sleep there since they hadn't yet and had been married since '06. The reason they hadn't slept there yet? Her in-laws had come for the previous two years! Ugh
DH and I are seriously thinking about not going next year (we talk every year about not going), which sux b/c it is DH's birthday also. But I'm just not sure it will be worth the hassle of all the drama next year with a little one in tow too. If you've made it through my novel thanks for reading!
