[quote=Anonymous]You sound worn out, OP, and maybe you need help picking up the slack. Can your husband help with some of your stress? Can you throw money at the problem, getting help with holiday prep or paying for a sitter as needed? That said, your aging father is in bad health, only 4 hours away, and you previously said you'd go. You even cite your in-laws as a reason you're too busy? Sorry, I vote that you need to figure out a way to go. You mentioned going before Christmas, but if that timing is too tight, maybe you can reschedule for the week after Christmas? You don't get a pass based on the fact that there's nothing to do there. Family visits are different than vacations, so just keep it short. Leave home at 6 a.m. and be there by 10 a.m. Visit with him in his home and let him have time with you and his grandchild. Drive home the next day or evening. Done.[/quote]
