I don't know if I'm overthinking this situation so thoughts would be welcome.
Okay so Christmas Day night we were invited for Boxing Day meal with MIL (the narcissist). We declined (wasn't important to invite in advance and felt like it was only extended because we found out).
Arranged to go round 27th. Now I'll point out hubby is disabled. Turned up and some random car was parked on MILs driveway visitor space. No other suitable parking, had to come away. She claimed that aunt in law and cousin in law had just turned up. Then said she's free all NY weekend.
Went to a couple of stores yesterday local to her and called round, out again. Turns out she's had other grandkid round for NYE. But now is saying she's Thursday Friday but will be picking up other grandkid from school (a good hour away) and having him overnight and Friday (baker day).
We hadn't had contact for a year till this summer. Then we would go round on whichever day she wasn't working (semi retired) but never weekends (never offered). She then due to work problems has gone back full time and since then we haven't seen her. Again weekends not offered.
Am I being prickly or does she deserve both barrels?
