Today I'm nervous. I need to call my MIL. Sigh... I'm not sure what to expect.
I have my Skids birthday presents still. Originally, the plan was that my Dad was going to give my SS his present and my H my SD's present this weekend when he picked up my SS to go hiking. Well, it turned out that my SS turned his ankle in soccer camp, and is now on crutches so they canceled. (All this my H told my Dad through email... at least he's 'talking' to my dad...)
My Dad was going to email my H and see if he was available to drop of the presents, but he forgot, and I think he felt awkward about it. (My mother suggested he do it because H is on 'talking' terms with him. He's the only one that seems to be having 'positive' results with H.) I certainly don't want to be the one to do it, I think that would be disastrous. But I managed to get my MIL's phone number from my SIL and asked my parents if they thought I should call MIL and drop off the presents at her home. My father thought it was an excellent idea, which would totally eliminate the awkwardness... except for me and maybe my MIL, but I don't think she would be 'mean' about it. But I'm nervous, none-the-less. I just don't know what has been mentioned or not mentioned, if my in-laws despise me. Or, hell, she could greet me with open arms, and ask me what's going on. I don't know. So, I'm nervous...
I guess I'm not really sure how to act 'as-if' on this one...
