[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks everyone. I’m just really feeling resentful of the trip. It’s not coming at a good time logistically and I’m already stressed about it. Now I’m just irked to think it’s partially a “fun” trip for DH and I’ll be here running around like a chicken with my head cut off. I’ll try and look at it differently. And you’re right, he’s done either way so what does it matter if he’s having fun, I guess. [/quote]

I get it. It's a drag to be the one stuck at home handling everything while someone gets to go out of town (it's for work, but come on work travel can be kind of amazing with the after-hours alone time, hotel room w maid, etc.). Adding, on top of it, that it's a vacay with your MIL, I'd be annoyed too. The problem is, it's not totally rational to be annoyed about it. So I think you have to get over it. But I empathize, and would be def annoyed. Especially if your MIL is the type who acts like DH is her boyfriend, which is sadly a common dynamic IME.[/quote]
