Me too me too!
I want to join the club I think I deserve a title too. I have the credentials to prove it! LOL
To begin with she could not be pushier or bossier or ruder if she wanted to be. And DH is one of those who just lets everything go and does not stand up to his family. They can do no wrong and I hate that soooo much. I am the type to let my family know if they did something wrong or stupid. I don't care if you're the pope what's wrong is wrong. Also, no matter what I say she always does the opposite. She seems to be determined to defy my every word.
Now where to start?
In no specific order...
1) DH is Greek and I am not but we will be raising our son in the Greek Orthodox religion and they have a tradition that the sunday before your 40th day after having given birth you are to go to the church to get the baby blessed. Well as soon as we walk into the church to meet her she comments on my sons outfit 'why you put that? You supposed to put another one. The one I buy.' She actually talks like that since she barely speaks english. So of course I proceed to tell her that she did buy that outfit! Moron what ever happened to hello.
2) 2 weeks ago I had professional pictures of my son taken and I gave her an 8x10 for her to put in her house and I gave her 4 wallets (DH has 2 sisters) and I told her '1 for you, 1 for dad, 1 sis, and 1 for other sis. So a few days later DH tells me that FIL wants a wallet size pic so I tell DH to call his mother and tell her to give FIL his picture. Afterwards I ask FH what happened and he says that she said there weren't enough. So, I don't get it! I sent 4 pics and there are 4 people. I come to find out afterwards that after I even specified that it was 1 for everyone she decided to give 2 wallets to one of the sisters and FIL got nothing. What the F$^k? Who does that? She has no common sense whatsoever.
3) For my bridal shower and the wedding no one from DH side of the family even offered to help pay for anything but the woman had the nerve to tell us how to do things and to give a ridiculously long invite list.
4) Not too long ago she called the house one day looking for DH. I had just recemntly tried call DH cell phone and did not get an answer so I had no clue where he was. So she ask if DH was here and I say 'no he's not here I don't know where he is' and she has the balls to say 'you don't know where he is? I don't think so you don't know where he is' So the woman is calling me a liar now too!
5) I stopped answering the phone when she calls (Caller ID is a beautiful thing) because she calls and speaks to me in Greek! Not just the hello how are that I understand but she tries to have a friggin conversation with me. How rude

I don't call her and speak to her in spanish although sometimes I'll purposely answer her in spanish because she pi$$es me off.
6) My son does not take a pacifier anymore. For some reason he just doesn't seen to like it anymore. He spits it out and doesn't even suck on it. For at least a month and a half everytime she saw us she'd ask for the paci for the baby even though everytime she did I'd repeat 'HE DOES NOT LIKE IT!' One day we were sitting on the sofa (DH-ME-MIL) I'm in the middle and she asks for the paci so I say 'he doesn't like it' so she proceeds to lean over me and ask DH for the paci in greek. What a Beeyotch! And one day I had not realized that I had a paci thrown on the table because I had taken it out of the diaper bag since it didn't make sense for me to carry it around and she found it. She washed it and put it in my sons mouth, he spit it out once, she put it back in, he spit it out again, so she shoved it in his mouth and held it there for a good 20 minutes. She has no respect for what I say.
7) This was my first mothers day and she didn't even call me to wish me a happy one even though we were there the night before and I took her a card and a gift and got nothing in return either.
8) While I was pregnant I was put on bedrest half way through because I have fibroids that had gotten really large to due the hormones and I was in pain and the Dr. wanted to play it safe. One day she called and I told her that DH was on his way over to her house and she asked me why I didn't go with him so I said I was very tired and I didn't feel too good so she said 'Oh you lazy eh?'
I wish she'd go back to Greece.
P.S. My SIL's are no picnic either. They have holier than thou attitudes because they have lots of money to spend on brand name clothes and stuff (very shi-shi). They run around with there noses in the air and look down on others. And they always have rude remarks to belittle others. Last thanksgiving while preggo and tired I told DH to plug in the x-mas lights on the that I had just hung up the night before so that I could get into the spirit. His sister turns around looks at the lights and says 'they look corny' Come on now even if that's what you think do you have to say that??? And the other one (although they think they're soooo classy) comes to my house and goes through the baby's drawers and read the inside of my cards that I have on a table and goes through the diaper bag to see what's in it. She does all of this on a regular basis. I'm at the point where I always close my bedroom door because I would not put it past her to go in and look through the rest of my stuff.
Someone shoot me please!!!
