My father in law rented a non refundable ten bedroom “cabin” for his extended family to enjoy for Xmas. Without asking anyone.
Mrs Huffy pitched a fit over being forced to cohort with so many people for a week. I just nodded and said nothing knowing it would never happen because of the irresponsible folks in the family and my firm belief my father in law deserves the consequences of all his self congratulatory moves, such as assuming we would want to spend Xmas with him and not at a bowl game.
Sure enough the sister in law takes her boys to a wrestling tournament two weeks ago, then five days later to a family birthday party, including my in laws. They’ve all got it. Daddy is out $5,000 and I’m headed to Birmingham. #winning
