Worst gift:  I am a recovering alcoholic.  To celebrate 5 years of sobriety, MIL sent me a bottle of Tequila.

        Signed - Tequila?! WTF!?

frequent fry her - LawyerDIL Frequent Fry Her TM. - LawyerDIL, 1 of 4 needed/Posted: 28-JAN-10
Almost 2 years ago, I had a later pregnancy loss.  After initially asking me inappropriate questions about how I had determined that DD had died, MIL sent me pamphlets in the mail about religion and grieving.  They were not appreciated, because I no longer belong to her religion.  But, I accepted them and didn't say anything.  I don't speak to my MIL unless I am defending my children or directly answering a question (and, in as few words as possible).  So, imagine my surprise when my birthday rolled around and MIL sent flowers and an e-mail.  The flowers pissed me off because she caused a giant scene at my company in her efforts to get my office address.  Because, if she could look up the phone number for the company on the internet, perhaps the address was there too.  She just wanted attention.  But, I digress.  She sent me an e-mail, purporting to be birthday wishes, but also apparently trying to guilt me into forgiving her for 10+ years of being a total b!tch to me.  So, she tried to play the dead baby card, apparently hoping that it would tug enough heartstrings to get me to forgive her.  She told me about how she shared in mourning my DD, but isn't it wonderful that I went on to have a baby that didn't die.  Weirdo.  Yep, invoking the dead DD's name for her own personal gain.  Nope, still not talking to her.

        Signed - Not Nearly As Gullible As She Thinks I Am
