This past weekend was Eid (basically Muslim Christmas) and we had a wedding this weekend out of state so unfortunately we weren’t able to celebrate with family.
I texted and called my FIL and step MIL as I speak to them myself weekly, I also called them with DH. I remember DH calling his nana and his mom outside when we were with friends at a smoothie shop, I didn’t realize he called until just now it hit me because I was reading another users post about Eid and their MIL… it hit me that I was never on that call nor did I text my MIL or my step FIL Eid Mubarak.
I was debating on texting her right now, but Eid was two days ago… I’m usually really good at texting but I don’t like telling her happy (insert holiday) before DH and then it just slipped and I completely forgot.
Honestly, I wouldn’t care but this was the first year of 12 years my step FIL said Merry Christmas to me… which I didn’t care that he never did, he doesn’t speak English (he’s also nice for the most part) BUT DH is going to MIL this weekend and I feel like I gave her the perfect complaint on a silver platter to yell at DH. Also, he is going for Bajram (usually on the day of Eid but because of the wedding celebrating later) and she didn’t invite me which is a family activity and it was before I forgot to call so on another hand I think it’s okay I didn’t call or text? I’m not sure.
