Frequent
Fry Her TM
- Fightingalosingbattle, 3 of 4 needed
/Posted: 24-JAN-08
Ok, here's just a little bit of an idea of how manipulating
my MIL is. SIL recently got married. She's 33. When my MIL and
I were still speaking, she would frequently complain to me about
how she's upset that SIL (her DD) won't have kids of her own. She
focused on how hurtful that was to her. She also has complained
to DH and me about SIL's new DH, and how she doesn't trust him.
She thinks that he's in it for the money (the family has a significant
amount of wealth that is supposed to be passed down to DH and SIL
eventually). She also constantly talks bad about SIL's ILs, calling
them trailer trash, etc. Ironically, MIL is the one who grew up
in the trailer park. Because I am who I am, I keep my mouth shut.
It would be so easy to write in my blog (which MIL and SIL read
daily) about how MIL says "this" and "that"
about her own DD behind her back, but I don't believe that 2 wrongs
make a right. But, what kind of woman, honestly, will talk trash
about her own DD to her DIL?

Worst gift: OK, my gift
wasn't a terrible one, but when you see what everyone got, you will
be able to identify how MIL showed DH and me that we were much less
important than everyone else. Christmas 2006: I got a large bag
of pistachio nuts (because I really like them) and DH got a sweater
from a discount department store (I was there when she picked it
out). SIL got a brand name knife and block set ($200 value!).
Nice, huh? Oh, and this last Christmas they didn't get our kids
anything. In August, they had bought the kids new loft beds. But,
they waited until late November to inform us that those beds were
their presents from them. Had we known that in August, we would
have put the beds in the shed, and waited till Christmas to give
them to the kids. So, our kids feel unimportant.

Worst gift: Many years
ago, prior to kids, we still exchanged gifts with the ILs from he!!.
This particular year, MIL even asked what she should get us, which
was uncharacteristic of her. The day came, and DH opened his gift.
It was a hand carved duck (not my cup of tea, but OK) and a fisherman's
sweater. Then, I was told to open up my gift next. It was a squirrel
made out of cheese. A SQUIRREL MADE OUT OF CHEESE! I'm lactose
intolerant! LOL. Here we had spent about $100 on each of them
for incredibly thoughtful gifts, and I got a squirrel made out of
cheese. Classic.
