My parent' are going to join us for the Mother's Day lunch which I'm really pleased about because this will be the 1st time they'll be here for something I do with my in-laws. Am really chuffed about this.

Mummy isn't that chuffed. If anything she's not happy about it, Daddy is though as it's him that has said they'll go.

Why can't she be happy that she's going out for her lunch, something that doesn't happen all that often.

She won't be joining in when whatever surprise has been arranged this year happens, she's already told me this and she means it, this is one of the reasons why she doesn't want to come. I don't understand this because she's the one that always joins in, she's the 1st one up and putting any younger ones to shame.

I'm sure she'll be ok once she gets there and has settled a bit it's just the thought of it.

Have said that we'll be paying for her dinner and daddy's but daddy won't hear any of it, he'll pay for both of them. Hubbie and him can sort that out, but I think we should pay seeing as Mummy and Daddy-in-law kept theirs paid for.

That's annoyed me, it really has. Will need to tell hubbie they'll be going and somehow I'll have to keep from him that I'm annoyed cause he'll get annoyed if he realises I'm annoyed and I don't want him saying anything to my Mummy.
