[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is all of thus happening in a matter of minutes? It’s like some military operation planned to the last second. Does anyone have any chill to wait a minute?[/quote]
I wanted DC to eat and knew if I waited until she arrived to get food, we’d be late to the performance. In all actuality, now that I think of it in terms like this, I don’t know how she got to us as quickly as she did, based on where she claims she was when she called, and the time it took me to return to pick her up.

This plan left no margin for error. Everyone taking one car? Meeting at one house? Getting dinner on the way? Your only responsibility is to your kid let the two Grandmas drive together. I don’t wait on anyone in situations like this.[/quote]
There was a margin for error, but based on what MIL told me, I didn’t think we’d have enough time if we waited. I wanted to be sure my kid ate. I guess my mistake was waiting, but in all honesty, it all worked out just fine. I don’t understand why she is so upset over this imaginary scenario. It would be one thing if she had told my husband or me that she was upset that we didn’t call to tell her where we were going, but that’s not what she said, she was clear that she was mad we ate without her. We didn’t. [/quote]

Well did you invite her in for the soup and salad after? Then she'd know you didn't eat?[/quote]
Of course! Days before, and as soon as we got home. She didn’t even come inside, she just left. [/quote]

Huh, I guess she was just shocked the house was empty when she got there and fixated on this idea that you ate without her and can't let go.[/quote]
