Invasion of the MIL
My MIL is coming down for the ENTIRE WEEK next week to watch Jane because daycare is closed. I've known about it for months but the panic is setting in. I've never spent that long with her. I've never had anyone stay at my house that long.
Of course, we only need her on the M, W, F but she can't just do that, oh no. Nor can she just come on Monday and leave on Friday, no no no. She's coming this weekend..........and leaving next weekend. Girlfriend lives less than an hour away. It's ridiculous.
So, I have to spend the weekend with her, all day Tuesday and Thursday (I don't work remember, but she'll still be here...) and then the next weekend.
Hold me.
Re: Invasion of the MIL
This was somewhat understandable until I got to the part where she lives less than an hour away.
Good luck! No stress eating!
Oh, I could just tell her I want to go to the movies alone. She'd totally watch Jane but I feel badly b/c she's already judgey about me being a working Mom (she cried when I told her I was going back to work) so to elect to spend more time away from Jane (when it would really be time away from her...). Not so much.
Jane and I are going to have our usual Tues/Thurs and if MIL wants to come (down to the pool most likely) then she is welcome. If she wants to stay home and take a break, that is fine too!

I would totally schedule a massage or mani/pedi to de-stress for either Thursday afternoon or Saturday.
I have some MIL extended visit issues coming up and I am dreading them. I don't care how much you like someone or how helpful they are, it is difficult having another person(s) staying in your house for anything more than a weekend.
and THIS would be why I never considered using MIL instead of daycare because she'd have been here all week!
You are a smart woman
. I don't know how my boss deals with it.
Ahhh!! I feel so bad for you!
However, I am excited to hear the crazy stories that you're bound to have.
Our crazy, wonderful life
