Tough Talk,
My wife’s brother is a good person, but his wife is a nasty piece of work and comes from a nasty bunch of folks. I’ve done my best to be kind, decent and magnanimous. Unfortunately they are arrogant, stupid and downright mean people. There is some wedding anniversary coming up and they are all making demands on me and my wife, an in-law. Like we’re supposed to host a motorcycle gang in our house. If it weren’t for his wife, they would be complete strangers. I’m not sure what I should do TT. (Brooker’s Bridge, NH)
BB,
You know exactly what to do. You tell them to do their own party planning. If they don’t like it, tell them that there is an awesome hotel where they will have the greatest time. They will be waited on hand and foot and will love it. Just ask for the time and day of arrival. Everything and anything they could possibly want will be waiting for them. Then you give them the address of the local police station or county sheriff’’s office. They will have a delightful experience in store for them.
