My MIL is getting under my skin!
lately, she has been so annoying. When she comes to visit, she makes a mess of our house, leaves piles everywhere, and also makes commenst about my cooking- about how good it is and it must be fattening- which it is not, I cook a lot and have learned to cook yummy foods but make them low fat. She also puts down her son, and me in differnet sutble ways. The best is she is going away for 3 weeks and like usual wants us to take in the dog for a soild 3 weeks- it would be fine but there are 3 other brothers, and she told me I can leave work to walk him, becuase I live close to my job, and if he has an accident, I should just rip up my carpeting, and she will give $$ toward it, hello- not pay for the whole thing, when we are not ready to nor have a lot of $$$ to rip up carpeing right now, and then says it is not fair to make his other brothers walk the dog for all those days straight! Hello, what am I? It is okay for her to do this to me? When I open my mouth she tells me she does not want to fight about it. She will not put the dig in a kennel becuase he is almost 14 years old. I am so pissed. I love animals , and always to my share of pet sitting even to the point where my own cats are kept separate from the dog, etc. - but this is crazy. We live not too close either. Then she is going away in the summer and said we will discuss this in te summer AGAIN, I told her my sister is due to have her baby while she is away we cannot be responsible for a dog then, and then to add insult to injury she tried to invite herself to my sisters MIL's retirement party! And she is hurt she is not invited! We told her that we are not really going to know anyone there- but she still tried to make us feel guilty for going to it. I am so annoyed. part of me thinks she might be jealous, she is divorced, and part of me thinks she is lonely. I am not sure. I try so hard and talk to her every day and include her in everything. But I am starting to get very angry. I am a laid back person, and very giving, but this is just crazy. My DH is starting to get angry too. Any suggestions?![]()
