[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hope OP returns and tells us if DH knew about the week in WV. [/quote]

DH confessed that he was involved in the planning, this was supposed to be a surprise. 'It's so hard to get everyone together, we can go to Florida any time'. :roll:

[b]I told him I am taking DCs and going to FL to celebrate my day. [/b]If he wants to come - great. If he'd rather spend time with his parents and siblings - fine too. I don't get a ton of leave, I am a frontline worker. Once a year I want my birthday to be about ME, not about someone else's feelings.[/quote]

If my spouse planned a birthday party for me and people spent a lot of money making it happen, it would be world war 3 in my house if I refused to show up.  I wouldn't do that to my spouse, but if I did, it would not go over at all.  [/quote]

It's not a birthday party. It's a week-long out of town trip with OP's in laws, planned without her knowledge or agreement. OP said she doesn't get much time off at her job and doesn't like her in laws. What sort of relationship do you have where your spouse would invite you to a houseful of people you dislike?
