Christmas gifts vent

[Anonymous]

These things are just a reminder that the gift is not about making you happy. I’m not always sure what it *is* about but it’s probably something about her.

My MIL likes to send food, things like dozens of those Cheryl and Co frosted cookies. My husband has asked her several times to stop, because we both try not to eat a ton of sugar and he has no self control around them. He’s not particularly heavy but actually has some bad bloodwork so he’s taking it seriously. She doesn’t care. Just sends them any way. I pull out a couple for the kids and one for him if it’s something he actually likes and toss the rest which makes him uncomfortable but is the best way forward that I can see.
