[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was prepared for you to have been doing this for two decades and have to say I’m underwhelmed by you doing it since 2019!  Having said that, your husband needs to suggest that you rotate hosting. Easy. [/quote]
Well, aren’t you a martyr! It would be nice for the ILs to host the 10th holiday, and that’s assuming they don’t host Easter or birthdays. OP has every right to be tired. [/quote]

To be fair, 2019 wasn’t all that long ago.  [/quote]

And at least a year of holidays were lost to covid. So OP is complaining about having hosted like, 4 holidays. [/quote]
What’s your point? Are you the Exhaustion Police? Are you saying OPs feelings aren’t valid? Maybe she doesn’t want to host the FIFTH holiday. Why doesn’t she get a preference?[/quote]

I think people are reacting to the assumption that her in-laws probably hosted for 20-30 years before their kid got married and they could pawn it off. [/quote]

Except apparently they're not "pawning it off" on their own dayom kids, now are they? OP didn't benefit from their years of hosting, now did she?[/quote]

So why does she do it now? Nobody asked her.[/quote]

And how do you know that? [/quote]
