My mother-in-law is going to be moving across country to live closer to us, due to health issues. She seems to think that because my husband has a good job that he should be able to pay for her entire move, AND support her once she gets here. Thankfully my husband put his foot down and told her that she and his sister will not be living with us, and will not be living on our dime either. So yesterday I called her at my husband's request, to tell her that we don't have the cash to pay for her to move out here and she will have to suck it up and help out with her own move. So I called her. I talked to her for an hour. Gave her all the reasons, talked money saving strategy with her, and ways for her to earn the money to move. A whole hour of that! Then at the end of the hour, when I am telling her goodbye, she asks me "So how will this work, will my son just send me the check for the moving company for my move?"

Seriously??? Did she not pay attention to the entire previous hour of conversation? I think that her mind is mush from the 30+ years of constant prescription pain pill use.





Allergies are back. The weather has warmed up so now my sinuses have shut down. My attorney screwed up on part of our bankruptcy so the IRS is temporarily keeping our tax refund. My dryer is trying to die and my son is still with that girl.


All I need now is for my mother or mother-in-law to rear their ugly heads. Frick.
