Mother's day and the back up plan

So while I was browsing forum topics and whatnot yesterday I realized that I was setting my self up. Why didn't I think of it before? Was I so blind?
I didn't plan for a what if scenario. What if the SD was going to be at the MIL for the traditional Mother' day BBQ?

Oh GOD! I will not allow my self to be subject to that thing on a day where I should be spending it with MY family.
So I called up my mother. I don't ask my mother for much. BUT I BEGGED!!!!! "please mom! let me hang out at your house on sunday"
Never in a million years did I think I would have to "hide out" at my mother's house. So my mother and I devised a plan. I will casually inform my husband that my mother would like it if I brought the kids over for a while on mothers day. (my mother and I are not that close, so I'm really going to have to sell this). I think I can do it. I have been calling my mother every day in preparation for this. My mother has seen first hand how the SD is. Hell my own mother wont let them over to her house either. (long story). So my fingers are crossed that I can pull this off.

I agree with the other gals... It's MOTHER'S DAY.... you should get to do what YOU want. If that means going to your mom's then go. If that means sitting in a tree and eating bananas then sit in a tree and eat bananas. Why do you have to "sell" this to your DH?

the youngest one will hopefully be at the BM. The older one has been hanging around so she can get money and use my DH truck. The reason I have to sell this is so I can have a peaceful day. Any mention of his kids in a negative manner and my DH starts yelling, screaming, and I just really don't want to put up with it. He knows I don't want to be around his kids. That being said, he demands that I go to his parents house for the bbq. Well I don't want to chance the fact that the SD will be there. The older SD wont be at the BM because they have been fighting.
I don't want MY day ruined because my DH wants to throw a fit due to his kid being a lying, thieving witch, and me not wanting to be around it.
