throughout DIP2's engagement I meet people who remind me of that wonderful statement attributed to Reb Yaakov: when asked what he expected from him Mechutanim, he stated, "I want whatever they want". Clearly a Gadol and Tzadik would be easygoing like that, to keep shalom, etc.
I am not like that. You know what I want? The same thing- whatever the mechutanim want. Except that they should want whatever I want.
I like things to go my way.
I don't like giving in to other people's opinions.
(I have been very easy going, as have my Mechutanim).
I wonder what kind of a mother in law I will be. ha ha ha.
Actually, future Son In Law, henceforth known as SIL1, loves coming to us for Shabbos. So far so good!

Welcome back to the blogosphere :)
This is one of those "easier said than done" axioms, but worthwhile to strive for nonetheless.
Good luck and remember -
"Don't sweat the small stuff... and it's ALL small stuff ;)"
