Are they acting inappropriately, or am I just being too anxious?

Our local movie theater offers free refills of popcorn and drinks. My family members insist on getting these refills after every movie to take home with them.

Miss Manners is confident that prices will continue to go up no matter what your relatives do, but she will think of them the next time she sees a wall of small print at the concessions stand.My husband and I enjoyed a very happy marriage for 30 years, despite the fact that his mother never liked me and did what she could to undermine our relationship.

I was uncomfortable having people hear about his death while I was still halfway around the world, but once I was safely home, I immediately notified his family and my family. I also ran an obituary in the local newspaper. Of course, I am not going to respond to her, but did I do wrong by delaying the announcement? Is there a rule that says that his family was entitled to immediate notification?There is no formula that will answer your question with a number of hours or days, just as there is no excuse for a mother-in-law sending a vicious email to a grieving widow.
