[quote=Anonymous]oP I could have written your post, I feel exactly the same way.  I'm even thinking of finding a Xanax or something from someone to help.  I don't think drinking the whole time they are here is going to help.  It's only the "most wonderful time of the year" if your in laws like you.  If they are snobby jerks who openly tell you t hat they don't respect your husband's career (he's in finance for Christ sake, but its corporate, so it's "bad") and they openly prefer your brother in law (because he's a teacher, like they were) it makes it hard to roll out the red carpet.  Sure, they will eat our food and stay in our house for days (the teachers don't ever host) but they feel free to openly judge our choices the whole time they are here. Will you be my texting buddy who reminds me that I am a fun, like able person, who is a good mom and deeply loved her husband, every time I get a snide comment about the new car (paid for in cash! That we could 100% afford) we got this year?  Or that my children go to "GASP" a highly rated public and not a Waldorf school.  Or that I wear lipstick! AND a bra! I can't win.  I even invited friends this year to try and diffuse them a little, but I am already dreading the whole weekend.  Looks like I'm going on more
Than a few long runs that weekend. [/quote]
