And the story goes on.
The diaper bag. I tried your advice. I locked it in the trunk.
She made my DH open the trunk and get it out. She went into the
restaurant while my DH was in the bathroom. She pulled food out
of her diaper bag AGAIN and said, "I have food!" So I
slammed my hands down on the table and yelled, "I TOLD YOU
I HAVE FOOD!" She yelled back some nonsense about letting
me know what she had in her bag, then muttered under her tongue.
DH returned oblivious. Rewind an hour. I was by myself with MIL
and I needed to run across the street for something for DH. I took
the baby with me (because of the 22 year old teething toys and the
crib made of chicken wire and wood that I have posted about previously).
Later that night, after we got back to her house, I left ASAP and
my DH had 45 min before work (nightshift). She let into him about
me not letting her keep DD, blah, blah, blah. It was so bad that
he left after 11 minutes. He went to work and sat for 30 minutes
because she wouldn't leave him alone. He called me and told me
that she just wears him down emotionally and he is tired of it.
I agreed. Hopefully we wont be going back for a long, long time.

I was cleaning our apartment
one day and noticed that there was an envelope addressed to my BIL,
but with a note that said to give the contents to my DH. It was
already opened, so I had to decide if it was something that needed
to be thrown away or kept. MIL was famous for sending newspaper
clippings of old cars and other things that my DH didn't care to
keep. Inside the envelope were clippings from a college football
game and a note that said (to my BIL), "Give these clippings
to your brother because his wife does not allow him to watch any
football. I just can't understand why he puts up with it from her.
You and your older brother would never put up with somebody like
that." Her accusations were completely unfounded. I have
never once prevented my DH from doing anything, including watching
sports, going fishing, long hunting trips, etc. I was so shocked
and hurt to find out that she felt that way about me and was talking
about me behind my back to other family members. She was affecting
the way that they felt about me by doing so. When my DH came home
that evening, I said, "I have a question for you. What sports
do you like to watch on TV?" He looked at me like I was crazy
and said, "You know I don't care to watch sports on TV."
I asked him if he was sure, and he said that he was. I explained
what she had written in the note and he said that she is crazy.
He seemed irritated by her behavior, but was not willing to say
anything at that time.

The most recent evil MIL
thing to happen happened last night after her DD gave birth to her
second child. I agreed to pick up the other DD from daycare and
bring her to the hospital. When we got to the hospital, the little
girl had to go to the bathroom. I took her and we discovered that
she had pooped her pants. She was so upset, and I had nothing to
change her into. I cleaned her up as well as I could, and stuck
toilet paper down her pants. I took her back to the waiting room
to let my DH and his mother know what had happened. He asked him
mom to take her home and get her changed, since she had already
seen the baby. But she threw a fit and went to the parents to demanded
that they do it, even though they were in the middle of welcoming
their new child. The father gave her money to go buy the little
girl some new clothes from a store across the street. This made
her happy. She left the poor little girl with me, while she went
on an hour long shopping trip to get her a new, clean outfit. It
took an HOUR to go across the street!!! Then, when she did get
back, she threw the outfit at me. When DH gave her a bad look,
she said, "I'm just too tired to clean her up. You'll be a
dear and do it, won't you?" I wasn't going to fight with her
in front of her GD, so I took the poor little girl into the bathroom
and cleaned her up as well as I could. I wish this was the end
to my rant, but later, after we had all seen the baby, they were
looking for someone to take the older DD overnight and drop her
off at daycare. My other BIL had a good reason why he couldn't,
but I had been up since 4:30 am and I was tired. I hadn't eaten
anything, and I had to get up at 4:30 the next morning, as well,
to go to work. So I was trying to get out of it, but when we asked
my MIL to take her and drop her off before she had to be at work
at 11 am, she said, "I've been up since 6 am. I'm too tired
and I need to just go home and sleep. So, I got stuck with it,
again. This little girl is a wonderful little girl, don't get me
wrong. But I had to drive all the way across town and go to work
in the morning, when it would have been so easy for her GM to do
it, especially since the daycare she goes to is only a mile from
her home, and she didn't have to be at work until after 11 am.
I have to be at work by 6 am. I'm really in dislike with this woman.
