The He Said...scatter- Mother-out-law, I like that. The He Said, She Said are real convos between the Mr. and I, note that it's he who is usually the funny one, though I tell a better joke, he is an engineer after all.<BR/><BR/>MJ-Yeah, if she can't properly look after the dog, the kids are certainly out. The MIL/DIL is one of the toughest relationships. My mother drives me crazy too but I can tell her to back off if it gets too bad. Even if I lose it with her, we have the whole 'I was in your body for 9 months you HAVE to love me' thing going for us. With MIL, it's all the same boundary issues, etc. and more but you don't have the same bond. <BR/><BR/>Sandi- I'd say it's definately possible, especially given your situation, raising the kids, making choices about things without your husband. She might have been rough from the start but losing someone important to everyone couldn't have made it any better. Maybe we can set up a cage match between yours and mine and let them fight it out:)<BR/><BR/>Stella, Yeah, I know. I stomped around our house like an angry chicken for a few days after that one. Can you say livid? I got over it, that's what my part-time Buddhism's good for.formerly funhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04915882376165190052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8748884779372791877.post-49411345826497013162008-07-16T19:57:00.000-07:002008-07-16T19:57:00.000-07:00A haircut?

I don't know what she fed him while I was away, but when I got him home, he immediately hacked up something so horrible, I now have a permanent reminder at my front door to not let her keep him ever again.MJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15508596301640968425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8748884779372791877.post-25347114069852152312008-07-16T13:26:00.000-07:002008-07-16T13:26:00.000-07:00D'you think she may be trying to tell you somethin...D'you think she may be trying to tell you something?<BR/><BR/>Mother-OUT-law more like!
