Try to find a buffer with other family members to limit your interactions with her - be yourself and don’t engage in her drama. Don’t let her kill your joy and remember you and your husband are a family now too!
Super relevant topic for me because I can't stand mine either. You don’t have to spend the entire event directly interacting with her. Just find other family members or friends to spend time with during the gathering and stay with them. That's what I do.
Sorry you're goin through that! I actually get along with my sister-in-law pretty well, even when we don’t see eye to eye. I try to see where she’s coming from and not take things too personally. It’s not always easy, but keeping the peace for family’s sake has worked out okay for me so far.
