SO I finally get myself calmed down, and fell asleep on the bed, when I am awakened by the doorbell. It is MIL, I rush onto the screen porch and ask what is wrong she states "I want to talk to my son" I say why is something wrong, she says "I just want to talk to my son" So I come inside and call DH, he goes out on the screen porched and and I stay inside. About three minutes later, he comes in cursing "wtf ever" and slamming our front door. I ask him what is wrong, he is so mad he can't get the words out. So I go rushing out the door, to see what had happened MIL was gone. So I rush upstairs to find out what's wrong, he says "she wanted me to get in the car with her and his sister, and come out to her house to talk to her, alone" . He told her can chelle come she said "no I don't want her there", he tells her "anything you have to say to me you can say in front of my wife" she then asks him again to come out to her house alone to talk to her. He tells her not if I can't come with him. She says she doesn't believe us about the financial problems. Just so you guys know, I shop at Aldi, I buy my clothes at places like Cato, and Kohl's and I usually only do that during tax time. Kids growing the way they are get wal-mart and occasionally old navy. I am a penny pincher, and yet I get the feeling that she still thinks it is my fault dh and I are having a financial problem. When we got our house, his credit from the divorce was so shoddy, we had to pay down a couple of the credit cards, and we didn't qualify for a fixed rate, we had to go with an Adjustable Rate. I had only been here two months when we bought the house.

She says I should get a job, I agree. I do have a part time business, but I guess in her eyes that doesn't count, because it isn't steady income. I have applied at so many places in this stinking po'dunk town, and not able to find anything. Her Daughter has been trying for months in a bigger area, with no luck.

I get the distinct feeling she was trying to get DH out to her house, to try and talk him into moving in with her, and leaving me. My instincts are pretty good at picking up on this sort of thing, not to mention my grandmother was a master manipulator, so I have seen how "they" work. I am so finished with these people, I have no respect for anyone, who tries to break up someones home, especially when there are children who will be negatively affected. If she steps foot back on my property, I am going to be just as rude and ugly to her as she was to me, and tell her to get the hell off my property, and while she's at it to stay out of my marriage. So tired of this crap.
