Oh 4 days with the outlaws, I feel your pain!
And having to get the house spotless only makes it worse!
Will that be it or will you see them over Xmas as well?LBM Aug 09: £18,650.47 - Current: £12,854.93 (£5946.79)

we have to spend christmas day and boxing day with them as well! i deserve to go to Heaven with all this hard work i'm going to have to do! I'm silently insisting that we only spend the two days so that i can spend time with my parents. I guess i'm lucky that this will be only the second time i've not spend christmas day with my folks and the last time i spent it with my sister.
I so wish that i drank it would certainly help dull the pain of the visits.0 -
My OH's mum is lovely, but she's losing it a bit and takes FOREVER to finish her sentences, so hard not to butt in and finish for her!
Luckily I don't get made to visit, as both sets of patents only live 5 minutes away so we just pop in whenever.LBM Aug 09: £18,650.47 - Current: £12,854.93 (£5946.79)

unfortunately i'm still working out a 'relationship' with my MIL. I think it all comes down to cultural differences, though for someone who's suposed to reveer her family and be the matriarch she never has a good word to say about anyone in her family. Hey ho i'm going to try my best to build bridges and make a good thing out of a bad situation.0

4 years next feb. She stopped making even the small effort she had been making when we got married (2 years ago). Now i sit like a muppet most of the time while she carries out her side of all conversations in Italian which she knows i don't understand.
OK enough talk about that woman. I'm spending enough time with her next week i don't have to talk about her today.0 -
Good luck next week!

Today I have to buy new work shoes
My ballet pumps have split across both soles, I tried to glue them last night and stupidly left them to dry on newspaper, now I have newspaper for soles!
