What a nightmare my life has been recently, but this - this I really fucked up. For some context, our pet rabbit is suffering from some health issues in the past few weeks, had a surgery and this week things should have already been better but anyway after her stitches were removed it must’ve been itchy and she chew on the wound to the point where we had to go back to the vet for a treatment and we’re back to the point where she needs pretty much nonstop supervision during the day and has to wear a cone for the night so I can get at least some sleep. It’s really exhausting mentally, physically and financially.
For Christmas Eve me and my partner usually do a tour de families. Heading out in the morning, drive to his family (mum and grandma, ~90 min), have lunch and gift giving, then drive to my family (~40 min) have dinner and gifts and drive home (~90 min).
This year due to the circumstances we decided it would be safer if I just stay home and he would do the usual at least with his family and with mine we would either postpone for a few days or I would come alone any other day while my partner takes care of the bunny. Other options include either taking her with us which is really stressful considering we would be gone all day and spend significant amount of time in the car. Or we would have to put a cone for the day as well which is also stressful and very limiting and I just don’t want to do that.
My family was very understanding since they also deal with a sick pet of their own, so it’s not a big deal if we postpone for a few days. I haven’t spoken to my MIL but my partner was on the phone with her and from what I heard she wasn’t happy at all and doesn’t accept that I chose my pets safety over Christmas tradition. Anyway I had a weird night and I’m really stressed and anxious (not like it’s an excuse) and this morning I was texting my mum, we’ve already exchanged a couple messages today and I wrote: “Anyway [MIL] is pretty upset that I’m not coming. Apparently sick rabbit is not good enough reason.” Well as soon as I hit send I realized I sent it to MIL. I have no idea how it’s possible since I was sure I have a convo with my mum opened, but it happened. I immediately sent an apology but the damage is done. I am so mad with myself. Such a stupid mistake. I feel like an idiot.
TL;DR sent a text about my MIL to my MIL instead of my mum by accident.
UPDATE: she called me because my husband spoke to her and told her I’m freaking out. She said it’s cool and not to worry, she even said she found it funny but she would prefer if I don’t text her at 8AM. So I guess I’m good?
