[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agreed with PPs that OP has flatly admitted that it was personal. She’s mad the in-laws wouldn’t play along with the pretense that they “needed” to leave early when actually they were just sick of the in-laws.

I'm guessing OP has learned never again to confess any actual feelings on DCUM because you and other PPs keep bludgeoning her with "It was personal! You just dislike them!" Read her posts, don't just attackhr. She admitted they were glad to leave but also has said they would have stayed if not for the following which are 100 percent valid reasons to depart:

[b]Our reasons were: flight was overbooked and there were no other direct flights Sunday, severe storms predicted, and one spouse had very important work trip departing early Monday am. (We recently had an epic flight cancellation saga so that probably made us more nervous than we would have been otherwise.)[/b]

I'm betting that those of you so quick to bash OP have not dealt with truly bad scenarios of flight cancellations that wreck [i]days[/i] of your life, or the stress of watching the weather and hoping you don't make a choice, too late, to change plans, only to find you're stranded somewhere. And you or your your spouse has a work trip that now is going to be delayed or cancelled. And there will be trouble at work over this, etc.

OP was being frank with by ADDING that they were glad to leave early. But the actual logistical reasons are completely legit, even if OP and her DH had been profoundly crushed at leaving early! Weather is getting worse, and if you PPs all missed the past year full of news about flight cancellations and the domino effect of bad weather plus cancelled/delayed flights-- well, being ignorant of those issues is on you.
