Frequent
Fry Her TM
- sonotthedrama /Posted: 14-JUL-04
Yesterday, MIL called home from work (we are living
with her temporarily, until we can join my DH at his next military
assignment). She called at 3pm and told me that she was
stopping off at a neighborhood bar for a minute before coming
home to drop some things off for some friends, but she will not
stay long. I ended up giving my kids an early dinner and
taking them out for the night. So, imagine my surprise when
I came home at 10:30pm to find out that MIL NEVER came home, and
therefore grandma had not had dinner, and that she had not been
to the bathroom since I left (grandma has Parkinson's and arthritis,
and is bedridden - she must be helped to the bathroom).
So, while my infant was screaming for his late night feeding,
I was stripping grandma's bed and trying to clean up the mess.
Then, I had to make supper for her at 11pm. I left a message
for MIL on her cell phone, asking her where she was, and why she
hadn't come home, or at least TOLD me that she wasn't coming home,
so that I could have stayed home to deal with grandma. She
called back at 12am to tell that me she was sorry, and that she
hadn't meant to stay out so late. She would be home in 20
minutes. I went to bed 40 minutes later, tired of waiting
for her. She eventually came home at 1:30am with fast food
for me - like I was just going to sit up and wait for her for
an hour and a half! This morning, she was once again apologetic
for staying out so late, but I can tell that she doesn't really
mean it. And, did she apologize to grandma for not coming
home? Nope! She really doesn't think that she did
anything wrong. She thinks that I'm just mad because I had
to change the bed. She doesn't get it that she was inconsiderate
to grandma, she lied to me, and she was irresponsible!

My MIL is so crazy that
she called me a b!tch and slapped me in a car when my DD was five
months old. It was all over MIL taking pictures with my DD. She
was mad at me that day over something silly, and wanted to have
me beg her and say, "Please take the picture, please."
However, I guess she hasn't realized that I DON'T PLAY THAT GAME.
You are either in or out - no begging here. I told my baby, "I
guess it is just you and me, kid." She said, "AH,"
very loudly. All the while I was taking pictures, she was telling
my DH how bad I am (and her version of the story). We went to pay,
and he was trying to get mad at me. The lady at the portrait studio
said, "Sir, I am sorry, but your mother was way out of line."
Thank the Lord that I had a witness. MIL didn't know that the lady
at the studio had told my DH this, and he was mad at his mom. DH
was driving us home, and she said (all nasty), "What's the
matter, honey?" He started in on her, and she started in on
me. She yelled, "You b!tch," and slapped me. I assumed
it was because she couldn't stand the heat. When she slapped me
and got crazy, DH said, "Don't you ever touch my wife again!"
Good DH. MIL is now afraid of me, but she still tries cheap shots
all the time. However, she knows not to piss me off.

Worst gift: One year,
for my birthday, I received a trash can from my MIL. She had been
snooping in our house when we weren't home, and saw my shopping
list pad on the fridge which reads "Wish List" across
the top. I had on there: toilet bowl cleaner, trash can, trash
bags, milk, etc. She really thought that these were things that
I was desiring as wishes fulfilled. On my birthday, she said that
my present was on the porch. I walked out there and saw a trash
can. I said, "There's only a trash can. Who would buy someone
a trash can as a present?" She started crying and said that
she really thought that it was something that I wanted, since it
was on my wish list. I am waiting for the toilet bowl cleaner for
Christmas.
