My FMIL is so sweet, I adore her. But at the same time, difficult for me to understand.
I got my dress in NJ. She couldn't make it so I asked her to go veil shopping with me. She insists on going this weekend even though there are no appts available. She says she just wants to look at it. I was told they were getting new veils this summer so I figured it would make sense to wait and go then. She still insists. I explained you can't tell what it looks like thru the bag and I'd rather wait and go when we can try it on. I then gave her a few wknds free to see the dress. She responded that she's going to the shore every weekend so this is the only wknd that works.
It just doesn't make sense to go look at a dress hanging in a bag. Every time I try to say no, she comes up with another reason. She then asked me if after we see the dress, I could drop her off at her son's in Jersey bc she doesn't want to drive herself. I basically think she's insistent bc she wants a ride there. I hope I'm not a total jerk but I want to say "Sorry, I'm busy this wknd." She's going to be family so I don't want to offend her but mannnn...Should I just suck it up and go along?
