So this weekend my husband and I are going away for out 10th year anni!
We have had this weekend planned for almost 3 months. We are going to go to carmel by the sea. If any of you know the place, you will know that it is a very nice place to visit.
Our plan is that our 3 year old is going to stay the weekend with our In -Laws, our only famliy near by that can watch him.
So my son (3yr old) came down with a slight cold this past weekend, just now getting to the tail end of it. So my MIL just stopped by becuase she was in the area for work. She wanted to drop off some stuff for my son. 10 minutes after she leaves i get a text msg from my SIL. (she lives with the in-laws and also has a 3year old girl) The text msg says:
My mom told me that XX is sick and I don't want you guys to bring him over here this weekend becuase he will get my daughter sick!
i respond that he is not sick, that he is just getting over a cold, no runny nose, no fever, but slight cough, he is suffering from allergies as well. Which the cough could linger for days to come.
She then goes on to say, well I am planning a trip to San Diego next week to meet my firends and I don't want to take the chance of any of us getting sick.
So I forward all the text to my husband and tell him to deal with it, I am trying to deal with the kids.
10 min later my husband calls really mad and says my sister doesn't want us to bring our kid to the In-laws this weekend so that we can't go on our trip.
So it looks like we are going to have to cancel our plans...
I am so upset. I can't believe how selfish my SIL is. So I ask my husband, well if she is so worried that her daughter is going to get sick, maybe your parents can come spend the weekend over here at our house and watch our son. Husband calls back and says NO, his parents don't want to do that becuase who will watch the niece. yes my SIL has no parenting responsibility to her child at all.
So I call the hotel to cancel and they inform me that there is a 48 hour cancellation policy and we will loose our money for the first night, but get half back for the second night. That means we will lose $750.00........
So now I am trying to figure this all out... I don't want to lose the money and I don't want to lose the trip. I guess if it comes down to it, my son goes with us....ugh
I am so upset and so mad.........I want to say something, but I am so mad right now the only things that I would say are things i will regret later.
thanks for letting me vent.................wish the weekend was over
