[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 330047, member: 3907"] Normally husband and I host a big New Year's Eve party at our house, for all our friends and family. This year, sister in law spiked it by sending a sob-story guilt-trip message to our entire invitation list, bemoaning the fact that we wanted to have our party rather than spending the evening with husband's mother at her house. (husband's mother is going through chemo right now, and isn't up to attending the party. We spoke to her about whether or not to go ahead with the party this year, and she said that she'd be sad if we didn't do it, so we went ahead and set it up.) So, now all of our guests have bowed out and husband and I will be spending the evening alone at home with the babies and difficult child. Normally I'm pretty introverted, but NYE and husband's birthday (which falls on the summer solstice) are the 2 times per year that I like to host a ton of people. But we've been thwarted this year on both fronts. Sigh. [/QUOTE]
