[quote=Anonymous]My mother always misplaces her anger and it sounds like this is exactly what your MIL did. You just were the blow up point for her because she is holding back from telling the other DIL what she really wants to tell her she ends up taking it out on you.

You sound like you are trying to be fair and honest. When your feeling up to it, suggest a time for the dinner. If you aren't feeling up to it, either let her know that you need a little space and they should go without you or make up enough excuses to push it back a couple of weeks until you feel ready again. For me, I feel anxious when there is pressure on me looming to do something I don't want to do so I would be inclined to do as you did and let her know up front that you aren't ready to make it so frequent. Maybe let her know you are up for every other month?

Sounds like you typically have a good and open relationship with her so I would try and talk to her after she calms down and let her know how her reaction to you made you feel.[/quote]
