The last time I saw her was December 30th, never ever ever again do I want to be anywhere near her. SIL keeps wanting to get together for MIL's bday. I was talking to my own mother about it in the phone and my mother gave me some great advice. She said the next time DH or SIL mention MIL's bday to say 'Since when does MIL's name celebrate birthdays? Why is this so important all of a sudden I've never gotten a phone call or a card let alone a gift from her for my bday'.

he he he


Hubby and I had it out tonight and I finally lost it on him and told him exactly what I think of him for not standing up for me. His argument back was you haven't seen her since Dec. why are you so angry? OMG WHAT? I just went nuts.  He expects me to sit there and smile and play happy family when he won't stand up for me which gives her the green light to treat me like shit.  I think I may have gone a little too far and said that I hated her f'ing guts. lol Well its not like I was lying.

Yes when she calls out of the blue please please do not get your hopes up like "maybe she is changing" it is more likely that she is getting more ammunition to gossip about you to the other relatives to make sure they too have nothing to do with you. Try this.... When she calls, every time she tries to talk about you.... change the subject and ask her questions about her life. Watch it will drive her nuts! She is only calling to getting ammo! She will actually get mad!

Oh I don't talk to her on the phone, by email or in person. Been there done that burned the tee shirt. I hear hubby answering questions that tells me she is gathering info about me. Honestly I don't care anymore what she does, says, asks about as long as I don't have to see or hear her.

I have not seen her since Dec of 07.  How wonderful for me.  I am back in school, so I say I have to study (which is truthful), have projects due (assigned at the beginning of the semester but done when she comes over or there is a holiday) or go out and clean stalls.  I have horses and how many people would follow you into a poop filled stall?  I love poop.
