[quote=Anonymous]My ILs are like this at mid-70s. They never, ever hire a professional for anything. Drives me insane especially when they criticize us for doing so. Years ago, FIL would ask DH to help with these very complicated projects while our own house was in disrepair. Our family grew and our priorities changed. FIL stopped asking DH. I’m your case, OP, send DH. Be honest and tell DH and ILs that “you’re not up for this sort of thing now …too tired” but you will show up when they are settled w/ a great housewarming present. Plan something fun for yourself (do you have DC?) and or take a road trip for the weekend. If DH wants to spend his time helping, he’s on his own.[/quote]
