[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good grief, that is insane, OP! I would talk to DH about cutting back on all the trips year-round. Figure out which one's matter most and cut back on others...set a rough total of trips you are willing to make a year--4 to 6 sounds like plenty if you are up for a whole weekend. Start with Mother's Day. Send MIL flowers, and enjoy that weekend as you wish.[/quote] This is a very, very good idea. At some point you need to put your FAMILY first over your family. You know, that old Bible verse "...and a man shall leave his father and mother and the two shall be as one..." It is natural to move on and make your current family the most important family. It doesn't mean you cut the extended family off, but that you sometimes need to make your nuclear family and its traditions the main priority, and that is okay.[/quote]
