Hi ladies! It's been a while since I posted, but I am seeking a little perspective and advice...
I like my MIL and we get along well (so far!). The dilemma that I am facing is that she lives about an hour and a half from my hubby and I, and recently accepted a new job that is very close to our home. The job is part-time for a few days every week, and she is asking to stay with us during that time.
Hubby and I are just starting in our marriage, and the only tension I feel is the need for our own privacy and space (we just moved in together), and making sure my MIL is taken care of. If we compromise and agree that she can stay with us for some of the times and not others, I struggle with what is too much time (and where she will stay the other times, but I know we aren't entirely responsible for her).
How much time is too much time for an in-law stay on the regular, in your opinion? Especially if you get along... I don't want to agree to too much and for it to affect our relationship (hubby and I's or with my MIL)... Eek!
