SIL again...blargh!

So you may remember a ways back that my SIL pitched a fit about being invited to my baby shower before invites had even gone out.  Today we had brunch and my hosts had asked me to check iwth her because she hadn't rsvp'd yet.  Today she says, "oh yeah, I meant to call.  I can't make it."  Then why the big fuss?  I am so annoyed.   Of course everything she does annoys me.  They had MIL coem up this weekend on mega bus (which they have never taken, but dh and I take all the time).  I had warned them that they would need to put her on the bus in NY, that boarding was confusing.  This is thier visit, we only saw MIL for brunch today.  So at brunch MIL asks if I can meet her to help her get on the bus tomorrow!  They can't do it and don't have the balls to ask me themselves.  I can, it is my first day of break, but geesh.  It is just a bit nudgy, no?  I could go on, but here it starts to get nit picky... and I can pick and pick and pick and pick...

Re: SIL again...blargh!

  • Sounds like you married into a family with a lot of hand-holding issues.  I would not be able to deal.  You are a saint for being so gracious.
  • I know that my SIL is a giant Beotch and I hate her, but every time I read about yours, I thank the Beotch a bit that because of her blinding hatred I don't actually have to deal with her.

    This ridiculous passive aggressive thing your SIL has going on is enough to get you sainthood.

  • Moving forward, I would make it a point not to go out of my way to even attempt to accomodate her into future family plans. Leave it to MIL, or DH, or whomever, to pass the word of mouth on future events--like your baby's 1st B-day. Saves your stress and sanity!

  • Yes, she is a real treat.  My MIL was extraordinarily greatful today and gave me $ to take a cab home.  I think she felt really badly about having to ask me, but bil and sil probably made her do it, or told her she would have to go alone.  It was really manipulative of them.
