I've just learned that MIL may be coming to visit in the spring.
And, I can't say no. Here's why: DH is in the military, and we're
stationed overseas. DH's uncle is also military. He is stationed
at a different base, but in the same country as us. He's been here
for 7 years. He is planning to pay to have his mom fly out and
visit (MIL is actually DH's GM). Since they're only an hour away,
yep, you guessed it, I'm stuck seeing her, too. She wants to stay
half the time with us. Not gonna happen! I will not let that holier-than-thou
hag criticize every aspect of how I keep my home, like she did before
we moved here. You know what she said? Here's a cut and paste
from the email I received:
"iM SO GLAD I CAN FINAL SEE WEAR YOU LIVE! iLL HELP YOU OUT
DONT WORY. i CA SHOW YOU ALL MY TRIKCS TO KEP THE HOUSE CLEAN LIKE
[DH] LIKES IT! aND i CAN TECHK YOU [DH]S FAVRITE FOOD SO YOU CAN
KEEP HIM HAPPY! yOU WANT MY GRANDSON TO BE HAPPY RIGHTE? IM BRINGING
SME EXTRA STUFF TO SOME LITTLE THINGS TO MAKE THE PLACE LOOK NICRE.
tHERES A PAINTING aUNT m_____ IS SENDING THAT WILL GO PREFECLY WITH
THE COLORS i PICKED OUT!!"
Oh my lord, please tell me it's a dream! My only comfort is DH's
uncle's wife. She's treated just as badly by that woman as I am.
We're seriously considering running away for the month and letting
the boys entertain themselves. After all, she doesn't really want
to see us.

DH was raised from the age of 10 by his GM.
She is whom I refer to as MIL. I have never met his biological
mother (who I'll call BMIL from now on), and probably never will.
She was (is) a drug user and was very abusive and neglectful. From
the moment of conception on, the only good thing she has done for
DH and his siblings was to carry them to term. Not that she treated
them well as fetuses, either, doing drugs and drinking alcohol the
whole time. It's literally a miracle that those kids survived long
enough to be taken away from her. Anyway, BMIL has only hurt my
DH over and over. DH stated years ago, while still living with
MIL, that he no longer wished to have any contact with BMIL. He
no longer went on family trips to visit her. When she came to visit
them, he'd find a friend to stay with. He threw away any mail,
deleted any emails, and refused to return her phone calls. She
was a toxic influence on his life, and he didn't want to deal with
it anymore. Well, MIL KNOWS, and has known for years that DH doesn't
want to talk to BMIL and that he doesn't want her to have our phone
number or address. So, on Christmas morning we woke up to a ringing
phone. DH answered the phone, and it was BMIL. MIL had told her
that DH was just desperate to wish her a Merry Christmas, and gave
her our number. DH, nice guy that he is, didn't tell off BMIL because,
for once, she didn't technically do anything wrong. But, it completely
ruined Christmas for him. He spent the whole day lost in his own
awful childhood memories of Christmases where he was beaten almost
to death by BMIL's boyfriend, or times when he didn't eat the whole
week. That's what he spent Christmas thinking about because MIL
was evil enough to give that woman our number.
