I don't see myself as a very brave person but here's a quote: "Believe in yourself. You are braver than you think, more talented than you know, and capable of more than you imagine." -Roy T. Bennett

How does one change? I am dreading having an uninvited guest. One and a half months, my mother in law is going to stay for one and a half months. Six weeks, that's like 28 days plus 14 more. Give or take. I think I'm gonna stroke out. No getting out of it, I tried. So.. how do I change? Look forward to to the gates of hell opening up and the antichrist planting her arse in my home.... for one and a half months, six freakin weeks, that's at least 28 days, and at least 14 more. I need to get the hell outta dodge. I can't cope with her. I will go insane. I'm done.

If only I had a huge house and enough space for three Saint Bernards ... How fun would that be?!! If I win $1.5 billion in the lottery drawing, I would buy a humongous house and fill it up with fur kids. But three St. Bernards, you're going to need lots of brushes and combs! I'd be glad to help!

I'm sorry, mon. I hope it goes better than you're expecting.

Would it be possible to just try to get along? I know that's a lot to ask if you just can't stand the person, but you know that she's leaving after six weeks, so why not try to make it work.
What does your mother-in-law enjoy doing? Keep her busy, keep yourself busy.

Aww, thanks kids! I will stop wallowing in self pity now, it is a very unattractive quality, I realize. What she likes to do is sit in my chair all day, and stare at her i phone, leave a trail of crumbs and dishes from the kitchen to the chair and watch home Reno shows and the property brothers while drinking no less that one bottle of red wine and at least 3 highballs. I'll just hide upstairs when I need a break, there's lots to do upstairs, housework, t.v., reading, kissing cats.....laundry. It is unavoidable, I have a few months to steel myself for the inevitable. It's hard to have her for 2 weeks, I cannot fathom, well...you know. I will just have to let her make a huge mess and clean it all up when she's gone, there. Problem solved. Maybe I was a messy kid, could be Karma.

What does your husband... her son.. have to say about all this? Will he take some responsibility and involve himself with his mother while she's visiting?
