[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s our year to host. It’ll be my household, my parents, and my (single, child-free) sister. Due to some work unknowns for DH, we don’t yet know if he will be working on Christmas Eve (when we typically celebrate) or Christmas, neither, both, or just one of the days, but will find out some time this week or next. My sister knows, is fine with whatever date, my parents have been told this, too. But my mom keeps calling and asking if I know yet. I keep telling her she will be the first to know. That appeased her for a while, but now she’s focusing on the food. What will we eat? Will we eat the same food if DH isn’t there? Should SHE cook the food and bring it over? Etc etc. I keep telling her I don’t have the menu cemented down yet, but it won’t change, and no, nobody needs to bring anything, just like I don’t bring anything per her request when she hosts. But every day she calls and asks, and I sort of blew up at her today. It’s frustrating enough for ME not to know, but it’s even harder when I’m constantly asked. Am I being rude? Is there anything I can say to ease her mind?[/quote]

Mom, I answered these questions when we talked on Tuesday. Gotta go - taking Larlo to a friend's house. Bye! Do this every time.[/quote]
