i'm having horrible visions -- what to do?

After a lot of aggrivation, FMIL is stuffing her own invites after I offered to do it. I was given a hard time and just gave up.

I emailed and called to find out where I should drop off her invites (she's in the process of moving) and I got no response. And knowing the way she is, I find it hard to believe that she didn't get either message.

So now I'm concerned that she'll just assume that I'm stuffing her invites since i offered initially. I want to stay off her radar -- I don't want to call her to clarify that I'm not doing them. I dont' want to talk to her at all. But, I'm concerned that FIL's will just assume - regardless of the fight that happened - that I just took care of them and will not bother to ask me. So my question -- is there a way to stress that I've NOT stuffed their invites without a confrontation?

If their invites don't go out, we won't make our minimum, even if every single one of my guests came. And that will piss me off because we're in a bigger room because of their super-big guest list.

you could wait a little. You have some time left. Then you can see what happens, what she says..

I would start stuffing them, and if she asks why you did it then just say you tried to call but didn't get a response, or better yet say you didn't want to add to her stress of moving and decided to do half of the envelopes. Play dumb, usually works

Can FH tell them so that you don't have to?
