Free to good home - one mother in law

[jazzcat]

It's nice to know that I'm not suffering alone. Sounds like I could have it much worse.

As for those with great mother in laws, LUCKY YOU! Be very thankful!!!!

I think I will try the advice of "thanking her for noticing" or whatever appropriate comeback for her snipe is. I'm not going to let her see she is getting to me.

Lori,
I am sorry hear your MIL is being a stone-cold-b .....

I have used this saying many times:

"If you can't say something nice, rather say nothing at all".

Alot of people stammer and say, oh oh I wasn't being personal, blah blah - but YES, YES you were!!!!!

All mom's have that "I am the only woman in my son's life" attitude.

When the time comes, they are cannot stand the idea that their son's are leaving the nest.

Not all Richard, not all.

((((((((((((((HUGS)))))))))))))))))) Lori!!!! That was a completely rude, hateful, and insensitive thing for her to say!!!!! Good thing I wasn't there, or I would have had to say something .... especially THIS week! My ex mil told my ex before we married that he would not have her "blessings" if he married me. I guess it was a blessing that she passed away before she had to see us divorce!

Jerry's mother really drug me through the wringer early in our marriage. One time upset me so bad that I left her home after blessing her out and started walking home without Jerry or the kids. They caught up to me and picked me up .... AFTER he had a few words with his mother himself. For some reason she believed that I was a snob and thought her "people" were not good enough for me.
