Having two sets of in-laws makes life so much easier. My husband's father and mother HATE each other and we get to hear about it all the time. My MIL was jealous that my FIL took us to Vegas for four days over the Christmas holidays. She called everyday, several times a day; which I think is rude considering no one interrupted our time with her. But when we are with her, she disappears, she didn't take the time off she needed, she's sleeping, whatever. It makes dealing with them so much better from the other side of the country and now you know why I moved from the west coast to the east coat--FOR MY SANITY. LOL

I asked my husband last night about what he thinks of his in-laws. Basically my mother causes him to do this as there is always something wrong with her. She's either 1) fighting with someone or 2) too sick to do anything so she sleeps all day. We've been dealing with 2 the last few months so we can't seem to hold a conversation for more than five minutes until she has to go back to sleep.

He can't stand my brother and his wife sometimes because they can be rather bossy and disrespectful of our stuff. We, stupid on our part, left our car AGAIN this Christmas at their house when we flew out of Atlanta. We should have known not to as the previous year my brother drove it around and left a ton of sunflower seeds on the floor. This year, we come home to our driver side window is busted and he again drove the car even though we were promised it would remain sitting in their driveway. $120 later to fix the car and I hope I finally learned my lesson. THIS explains why I'm moving five/six hours away from them in August...families can be rather difficult to say the least.
