Sister-in-law Annoyances

My Sister-in-law drives me nuts. In a month the Wife and I and my Brother and his Wife are heading out to Denver. Our Half-Sister is graduating college, so we thought we would head out there and make a long weekend vacation out of it. Last time we were in Denver nine years ago we took a day and went down to Colorado Springs to see Pikes Peak. We took the Cog Railroad up it the top. It was am amazing view from the top, and a nice relaxing train ride up to the top.

We thought it would be cool to do it again, plus my Brother wants to go too.

Well, his wife is pregnant and is all worried that the higher elevation is going to be bad for the kid. WTF? I understand being careful, and not wanting to do anything that will harm the kid, but I really doubt spending two hours in a higher elevation than you are use to is going to do anything. It’s not like she is ready to pop either. I think she will be three months along when we are in Denver.

But whatever.

She is also super religious, doesn’t trust doctors, refuses to take any kind of medications, but takes tons of “natural” herbal supplement crap. I wouldn’t be surprised is she is one of those nut-jobs that doesn’t believe in vaccinations.

She is a nice person, don’t get me wrong, I get along with her just fine. She just has total opposite believes than I do. It’s a little annoying spending time with her. She has some quirks that I am not use to. She wont ride in elevators, has to sit in the front seat of cars, and always has to sit on the end if in a row of seats.

But whatever.

It should still be a fun vacation in a month.
