Ok, I have to vent...SIL related

My SIL is looking at buying a house near us in NJ. She tells me last weekend "be prepared for me staying by your house a lot while I look"..um, ok, fine whatever. Then, we didn't hear from her ALL week and I finally (after 3 YEARS of begging) convinced my DH to go to the Bronx Zoo tomorrow. Supposed to be beautiful weather. Well, she emails just now and says, OK, I am coming tomorrow, see you then...without even asking us if we had plans. And now my DH says "I can't tell her no, I don't want to hurt her feelings"..My answer to that was "What about hurting my feelings!!" I have been looking forward to this all week and now it's gone.

It ain't right!!! Chat Icon

That is just wrong. So you are supposed to sit around all day? Nope, sorry. Tell him you are going. You can meet up with her later.

I'd let him stay home and go out shopping or do my errands. If I am going to miss out on my plans, then I am going to get something productive done.

EWE
why can't she just stay there without you?
I don't understand.
if she is house hunting- why do you have to be around? you already own a house?

I love my SIL as if she was my own blood, so I would be soooo happy that she was coming to spend time with us (even if it was unplanned), do you not really care for her much? Because i think if you were close with her you may feel differently.

p.s- if it makes you feel better, the Bronx zoo will literally be a ZOO tomorrow, you;re better off going during the week, the next few weekends are NUTS there.

I think it does not matter if the plan is to go to the zoo or something else. I think it comes down to accomodating someone who is very rude and does not have any concept of other people's plan. She is only giving 1 day notice and not even asking but "informing" them she is coming.
