Re: Q of the Day (stolen from 09ers!)
DH's parents are deceased but I get along really well this his mothers side of the family and his step mother. The only person I have a problem with is DH's grandfather from his fathers side. He's so selfish and decided to steal the money DH's grandmother put aside for him and then had that money taxed to his grandson (DH) When DH confronted him and told him to pay he said he did it because DH's father didnt leave him any money when he passed and he didnt have the money to pay the taxes on it (Cause he just bought a 2007 Cadillac) Luckily we worked it out with the IRS. And his grandfather instead of apologizing dropped off all of DH's baby pics basically saying hes washing his hands of his grandson. Way to treat someone who lost his parents.
Also his uncle from his fathers side doesnt call him. We decided it wasnt worth it to even send an invite his way. I dont understand his fathers side of the family.
Luckily everyone else in his life are angels.
Oh and I just remembered we sent his grandfather a wedding invite and he never responded. He said it was a spit in his face because we didnt put GRANDPA on it.

<3 FMIL to death but she is lazy - it drives me nuts. Doesnt clean - I have complete OCD so I dont get it. And she doesnt drive - its a major pain in the butt since we all have to drive her places all the time
and how could I forget a-hole FFIL decided to go out and have an affair and leave FMIL 2 months before the wedding and devestate everyone. Did I say A$$SHOLE

Re: Q of the Day (stolen from 09ers!)
My FILs are extremely generous and fun to be around.My FMIL is very controlling. Luckily, I'm not her daughter so it hasn't effected my life THAT much. However, I see her sometimes become overbearing with FH (particularly about his health b/c diabetes runs in the family). Also, the one time it effected me was when she basically let us have no say in our rehearsal diner. Then she had friends tell her that the kids are supposed to have a say. Then she tried to include us but I was so turned off I would've just agreed to any place just to end the fiasco.

Re: Q of the Day (stolen from 09ers!)
I really like his family. His parents used to live 10 minutes from us but now they live in FL
They are generous and very welcoming - from the start I felt like a part of the family. In my birthday card this year (last week), FMIL signed it with their first names but wrote underneath 'Hopefully, Mom and Dad, if you feel comfortable.'
So sweet.I would say the only issues I have with them are his dad's parents and family - they are a little 'frugal' and his grandparents never remember my name. Well they do now, but it took like 4 years
They are nice though. One of his uncles married a woman who gets very loud and obnoxious when she drinks (and the only time I see her is at weddings, parties, etc) - and she says things that aren't appropriate a lot. That gets annoying, but honestly, that's the worst thing.

Re: Q of the Day (stolen from 09ers!)
I love that my in laws are very generous and are fun to be around! There are somethings about them that are different from my family andhow they do things, but it is all things I have learned appreciate. One thing that comes to mind is that when they make cupcakes, they dont always put icing on them. But Ive learned to deal...

Re: Q of the Day (stolen from 09ers!)
my FMIL acts like she is descendant from royalty because she grew up spoiled and well-off , brags about money when in reality does not have a pot to p*ss in at this point and scrapes by AND NEVER WORKED A DAY IN HER LIFE!her plan was for her 37 year old only son to live with her until she died and then could marry.
when her son aka meal ticket got engaged she went farther into her insanity , putting down me, my family and my FH, because now she has to sell her house and downsize since FH cannot support her anymore
she is an evil , wretched woman who needs to get l a id , and then maybe she will lighten up and get over herself and GET A JOB like the rest of us
LOVE FFIL ( they are divorced) and wished he was allowed to come to the wedding, since FMIL will not attend if he is there.

Your FMIL and my MIL need to have a little party. They would be best-friends.

Re: Q of the Day (stolen from 09ers!)
FH is from Poland so he does not have much family here, his dad past away before we even started dating, but I love my MIL she is the greatest she would do anything for us, FBIL lives in Cali but he is great also, the only thing that sorta stinks sometimes is his mom and her family speak polish as a first language and that can be hard sometimes

Re: Q of the Day (stolen from 09ers!)
They're cheap...but they expect you not to be.My MIL told me about the $10 favors we should buy, but it was like pulling teeth for her to throw a nice rehearsal dinner.
My FIL asked where his bday gift was. I told DH to ask him where his was. We've been waiting since MARCH!!!
Let's not get into the rest of the family. His one sister steals and a bunch of aunts and cousins got into a fist fight at my rehearsal dinner. Half of them are on drugs. And the aunt he is closest to treats me like a 3 year old (in front of DH she is sweet as pie, but the second he leaves the room she makes rude and obnoxious comments!) His aunt at Christmas said, 'Let's take a family picture, Laura, could you take it?' ***?? Am I not part of this family now??
MIL is really not that bad, she is nice enough to me and treats me like a daughter. But other than that, his one sister and maybe 2 cousins are allowed at my house...I talk to no one else and refuse to be at any function where they are...

She owns a split level (co-owned actually with dh since she couldn't afford a mortgage of her own - idiot). We live on the first floor. When school is in session (we're both teachers) we're out of the house till 3 and she 'works' till 11/midnight. So, most of the time she's not around. However, when she is, I avoid her to no end.
That and I enjoy my wacky tobbacky. It helps keep me sane.
