[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Y’all.  My MIL has announced she’s divorcing my FIL. Which, he is a terrible person, but he’s always been terrible.  Why now? Why at Thanksgiving?  He’s spent the day in the garage with his hunting buddies.  My DH and  his siblings are having a frantic convening in the kitchen.  Awkward!  I’m staying out of the way with our 18 month old and very glad I put my foot down about staying in a hotel this year.  Will update on the craziness.[/quote]

So, I tapped out yesterday evening and fled back to the hotel.  DH stayed pretty late and came back around midnight.  MIL is about to retire, and so everyone thinks that is triggering the divorce.  She's been squirreling money away for years in a separate account, apparently.  Also, she may or may not be rekindling an old high school flame.

Also, i think the actual Thanksgiving dinner is in doubt.  I took a look around the kitchen and pantry, and while I did see ingredients and the turkey in the fridge...none of the usual prep is visible.  And a real lack of other basic food.  I stopped by a grocery store yesterday to get basics for me and mine, lol, just in cause things fall apart.  Some toddler pouches, sandwich stuff.  This is a tiny town--nothing is going to be open today and I am prepping for anything.
