So MIL is a PITA and as a result I had her in a TO after my DD was born. We recently ended the time out, but I still hold a lot of resentment towards her.
We did not go over there for Christmas because she was insisted on having Christmas dinner, I refused and would not back down as my family was having Christmas dinner. She even went as far as to tell me to convince my mom to change our get together to the afternoon. So I think she was mad about that but I don't care!
Anyways we went over on Saturday and she asked for a picture for a frame she had. I told her I would send her some pictures by email.
So I shared my Walgreens photo album so she can pick which ever picture she wanted. I woke up to the gem of an email from MIL to myself and cc DH:
Thanking you for the beautiful pictures.
You also made sure that I was in NONE of them......
never mind it is just my bad luck and misfortune.......
You have proven your point......
Anyways I am think about responding with this but I need your feedback.
MIL,
Wow! You have taken a nice gesture on my part to share DD pictures into something about yourself.
For the record, it is not your misfortune and bad luck, it's your inability to be nice and pleasant.
Most people would say, thank you for sharing your pictures. Did you notice there was no passive aggressive statement that followed.
Also, it is not MY responsibility to take pictures of you.
Lastly, you cc DH in your email will only create more friction between us.
I revoke my invitation for my photo album.
Thanks,
OP
Any thoughts?
