Will my name as grandpas wife be included on the invite? Last time the invite was very specifically just for him, even used his grandpa nickname. Nope I didn't go. Won't likely be going to this one either due to an event conflict with my family. This is the granddaughter that gloated and mocked us over our Covid protocols then made fun of us when we got Covid the first time, literally the day after testing, not knowing if we would even be ok (grandpa has some health issues so this was especially offensive) so I've not felt particularly warm and fuzzy towards her ever since.

Tell you husband to go and enjoy and you enjoy your day as well- doing literally ANYTHING else!

Leading up to it, I plan on doing exactly that. Even if I have to schedule a dentist appointment! But seriously DH gets it. He will be bummed that I won't keep him company, and he will be alone pushed to the sidelines but hey that's how they roll. 
 

Besides I don't want to break my nearly 3 year streak of not seeing the BM! It's become a personal goal now! Lol

When BM died, the SKs wanted us to come to the funeral parlor so we went.  Awkward but whatever, I kept a low profile in the back.  But before we left, I couldn't resist the temptation to go up and see her body, just wanted to make sure she was finally dead.  My last sight of BM.

I suggest you book a 3 day trip away somewhere exotic if you can. If you can't then at least go away to a spa escapade. The whole point of this is to FLAUNT the fact that you have so much better things to do.

I'm not saying anything to DH until a week before. I want to see what names or specifically what name is on the invite without him interfering. I know if I said anything prior he will make sure mine is on it. He helicopters a lot lol

noses in it.  Go, be radiant on your SO's arm.  Rock a hot dress, couture shoes, a make over and a designer hair style.  Whisper flirty things into your SO's ear to make it a bonding event for both of you.  d

Radiate your happiness and if they make the mistake of trying to not seat you with your SO, make sure to have your own place card and move someone. Get there early.  Any one who flips shit attitude in your direction, be ready with the dismissive  sweet laugh and a prompt "Well bless your sweet little heart. Is everything okay or do you need a high colonic?"

I cannot  even comprehend the shit storm of hell that would rain down on my brother or I if we had attempted to exclude a parent's spouse from a wedding, graduation, etc....  Not a thing for us though. Mom and dad have been married for 60 years.

We also never had to deal with the Spermclan crashing any events. They never made any effort. No one came for SS's HS graduation, or USAF BMT graduation, promotion ceremonies, etc.....  Not even a call.

His mom and I and members of my family are nearly always present for his events as we are for our Niece's or Nephew's events.  Though the number of that generation ofd Spawn is making it more difficult to get to them all. Though we do make sure to recognize their event even if we can't attend.
