MIL says skids are sick

Ok so serious question. How can you really tell if someone has munchausins syndrome? Because seriously I think my MIL might be trying to make my step kids sick when they are with her for attention. For example after spending 1 night with her somehow my SD "developed an extremely bad cough and a fever" and she had to give her all this medicine. (Her words) and my SS ended up with an extremely upset stomach with vomiting and diareah. Now SD has a slight cough thanks to living in the south during pollen season.

New tactic?

I am currently hidding in my house not even daring to peek out the windows because MIL is knocking on my (locked) front door and trying to just let herself in. This is junk honestly but I am in no mood to talk to her or let her in my house for the next few hours because it really does take that long to get rid of her. If FDH asks when she tells on me I will say I was in the back painting and didn't hear her. Apparently she is picking the kids up from school today to spend a little time with them and needs car seats.

New attempt to drive a wedge didnt work

We had a really great weekend with all the kids at home. SD9 was so happy to be able to just be at home and she was really well behaved for the most part. SS8 didnt share her excitement about being home but after he pitched his fit about wanting to go to FMILs he settled into a better mood. (he has unlimited screen time on tv and internet and no restrictions as to what he can watch and look at there. Also its non stop snacking and no real food is required and there is no bedtime.) 

Come on now!

FMIL is just screwing with me now. She signed up to get textmessages from school with updates at the begining of the year. I of course had signed myself and FDH up so we would be in the loop. Anyways school text that picture money was due (remeber she went tearing through SDs bookbag yesterday looking for them) so she calls wantimg to know what we are doing about pictures because she wanta them. FDH told her we were getting some but that I didnt want the whole pack because I just want a big one for my home office. She of course isn't happy with that answer and wanted her own.

One step forward

Two steps back. Sat down to have a nice dinner with my family and who comes creeping through my back yard and onto the porch...... Yep you guessed it FMIL. OSS is selling his car that has been parked at our house for months now and all the sudden she thibks she wants to buy it .So she brings FFIL over to look at it. Which apparently translates into he looks and she snoops in my yard and comes in my house.

Aaaaaahhhhhhhhh!!

I am extremely excited at this point. MIL has messed up and may have gotten herself into some issues with her push controlling ways. Last blog I said how she had run down to the court house to renew her guardianship paper work well I guess she rushed through filling it out and when she went to turn it in the clerk of court looked over the papers to make sure they were filled out completely and had some questions about some of the information listed.

He did it!!

Ok time to brag on FDH for a minute. His mother is a fairly constaint thorn in my side and I am fairly vocal about my displeasure with her.  So it just so happens that one day earlier this week school called FDH and said that SD was running a slight fever only a degree or so but per school rules they had to send her home. Perfectly understandable. He calls me and asks if I can keep her home with me because I just happened to be off work. Ok sure no problem. When she gets home she is her normal happy hyper self and doesnt seem to be sick which is what the school nurse said too.

Seriously I dont think she has anything better to do

Ok last blog I said that MIL waited til FDH was at work to call and insist she could pick up the kids. So that went over like a ton of bricks. She showed up on Saturday morning wanting more clothes for the kids because "they were staying with her all weekend." Not a question a statement. FDH was already gone to work so I couldn't ask if he had given permission for this or not (which I later found out he had not) and I was running late to get to work myself so I did not have time to argue that we would be getting them that evening.

She is at it again

So my last post was a small look at the crap I deal with when it comes to my (soon to be) mother in law. Sadly this week she has made it a point to rock the boat so to speak. First she informs me that the kids "REAL MOM" called her house the last time they were over and she talked to the youngest but didn't even ask to speak to the older child. Which she has made it a point to bring up and keep saying in front of said child. She wants my SD to hate her mother. She is always telling them how bad their mom is and how she did all these things before she abandoned them.
