Frequent
Fry Her TM - IDrinkaRumcosIneedit/Posted:
4-DEC-05
I left DH alone with DD for 1 hour. I had to go
out and get cat food. There was none, and I wasn't about to let
the kitties starve until the next day. And, besides, we had no
milk or eggs. Anyway, when I got home, DD hugged me and she smelled
a little off. I thought that she had peed through her diaper and
had gotten her pjs wet. According to DH, she drank pureed baby
bananas out of the jar and she had gotten some on her. But, he
said that I shouldn't worry, he had cleaned her up. Then, I got
the story out of him. While he sat on his butt playing his game
system, DD had pushed the baby gate down and walked up the stairs.
As the door to the basement area was open, this is where it's my
fault, she just continued up and onto the main floor of our townhouse.
She then found a *plastic bag* with the glass jar of baby bananas.
She grabbed said jar and came back down the stairs. She handed
the jar to DH. He put it down. She handed the jar to DH AGAIN.
He opened up the jar and tried to feed her bananas with his finger,
but she ended up biting him. He forgot that there was a huuuuuuge
box of plastic-ware downstairs, AND he was too lazy to go up the
stairs and grab a spoon. So, he let her drink the bananas out of
the glass jar. She bites all glasses that are not sippy cups, as
she drinks out of cups/jars/etc. I was very upset. Even if the
door at the top of the stairs WAS closed, he should have followed
her to make sure that she didn't fall down the stairs at any time
of her journey. Now, it gets even better: Two days later I called
MIL. DH hadn't understood why I was so angry about him not really
watching DD, so I called MIL and asked her to talk to him. She
told me that she was outraged by her son's indifference to her GC,
and that she would "definitely be calling him later on that
day to discuss this issue with him". When DH got home, I asked
him if he had talked to anyone. He said, "Yeah, I talked to
my friends." Then, I asked if he talked to anyone related
to him. He said, "No." Later on that evening he called
his mother. She said, "Yeah, I told your wife that I'd talk
to you, but I don't think that I should make waves in your marriage."
WTF??? Excuse me???? She can criticize my (lack) of house cleaning
skills and insult me in front of my mother, but she can't bring
herself to chew her OWN SON out about his indifference to his child!?!?!?!?!
What is wrong with this picture? Next time DH wants to go visit
his family, he can go by himself. He will not be bringing me, nor
will he be bringing DD. And, if he tries to pull the crap, "If
I can't take DD to see my parents, you're not allowed to take her
to your parents' house," I swear, I'll call the first divorce
lawyer I find in the phone book.

My MIL favors my nieces
and nephews. So, when she called last Christmas to ask what my
3 year old son wanted, I told her, "a small superhero that
he can hold in his hand (about 15 dollars)". She hemmed and
hawed, without being specific as to why. So, I said that I would
run and get the letter he wrote to Santa and read it to her. She
then said, "Oh, why don't you (meaning me) go out, buy something,
and then I will give you the money." This is a woman who has
a big toy store ON HER BLOCK. Hello, and she is EXTREMELY mobile.
If only she DIDN'T have energy in her bones. I stood up for myself!
Do I hear applause out there? I told her, "No, I have already
finished all my Christmas shopping, and I am not about to go back
out into the malls." I told her that I was sure that she would
go out and buy my niece and nephews gift herself (which she had,
in fact, already done) and that if my DH wanted to front the money
and face the shopping, he would call her. DH, of course, did.

I try never to be in
the kitchen alone with my MIL. That is her turf, and she always
takes the opportunity to attack me verbally there. So, every time
that I have to go wash dishes or bring dirty dishes in, I have a
secret code with DH and SIL for them to accompany me. But, sometimes
I am ambushed. On summer vacation, as I was pouring my morning
coffee, she blurted, out of nowhere, out of context, "You know,
I can never love you like my DD, because I didn't give birth to
you." Or, here's another one (on another occasion), "I
really don't know why I cried during the entire wedding dinner."
She also said, "Best to keep track, in a permanent record,
whose side gave which wedding gift in order to make it easier when
you get divorced." Here is my response to her (as an after
thought), "You can't love me because you are not loving. You
cried because your son chose someone very different from you. I
hope you start holding your breath for our divorce, because at this
rate you won't last long." We are on our 6th year of marriage
(8 years together)!
