frequent fry her - I'm up for the show, 1 of 4 needed Frequent Fry Her TM. - I'm up for the show, 1 of 4 needed/Posted: 19-OCT-06
My MIL thinks that she is so entertaining that we would like her to visit and call at all times of the day and night.  I live in the middle of the woods, 1/4 of a mile off the road.  I was sitting on my sofa in pjs on a Saturday morning when she came creeping around, where the dogs couldn't see her, to alert us that she was strolling our yard to see what we were doing.  We have set boundaries twice, in a calm and respectful manner.  Her reaction is to scream, carry on, and act like we are the scum of the earth.  We recently purchased a hot tub.  If she wants to come looking, I'll gladly give her something to look at - with sound affects as well.

Please help!  My MIL moved in with us after we were married for 1 year.  We bought a house, and my DH decided that she should come and live with us.  I had a fit.  I told him no.  I told him that things would change between him and me.  He promised me that things wouldn't.  Well, that promise was not kept.  My MIL thinks that this is her house.  She always invites her kids over and does anything and everything she wants.  I complain to my DH and I tell him that she has to leave.  He just tells me "no", and curses at me.  We started going to therapy because he thinks that it's my fault and that I have to accept his mom living here.  She tries to act like she's his wife.  She makes me look so bad.  One time my DH was mad at me, so he told his mom, "If you weren't here, I wouldn't eat."  She's always acting sick or needy so that my DH will drop what he's doing with me to pay attention to her.  It has gotten really bad.  She has turned all of her kids against me, even my husband.  One day I got tired of it and kicked them both out.  I told my DH that I needed to speak to him and she just got in the middle.  My relationship is going down the drain.  My DH has told me, many times, that if his mom leaves, he's going with her.  Well, it has gotten really bad.  DH says that we're getting divorced.  I also become very upset and I say mean things.  But I'm so irritated that nobody understands that she wants to step all over me in my own home.  Please help.  My marriage is about to end.

Worst gift:  My charm free SIL gave me some homemade earrings.  Don't get me wrong, I love homemade things.  But these earrings were made from peacock feathers.  One of her stoner friends made them.  They looked like fishing lures or something that you would see on a 3 dollar hooker on the corner.  I felt sorry for the poor peacock that lost these.
