Campari, we will b going to my parent's house 4 the big family function, however I don't have to do much. we r having the IL's over for lunch on boxing day to help my parents with their leftovers . we r going 2 church on xmas morning too. I have been mainly ok the past 2 days but I have my moments. I am really hopng that Dad keeps his mouth shut on xmas day coz the chances of a big argument r fairly high if he behaves as he usually does. DH will go into bat 4 me if he does. I think I will just leave it to him 2 sort out and if anything starts I will just excuse myself and go 4 a walk.
