How familar is that? Its so the same here. Its like we have the same conversation every day..."please leave our washing to us etc"

Are you sure our outlaws aren't related?

A lot of our stuff is in storage in her garage. We'd only been moved in 2 days before MIL ordered a skip so she could sort through OUR stuff and throw away what she thought was crap and we wouldn't need.

I have threatened to concrete her under the patio if she goes anywhere near our things arrgghh!

i wonder if there are special circumstances where the patio concrete thing will be in our favour, such as improving our quality of life.

Honestly i had the whole its embarrassing at times of the month discussion leave the washing, leave the cup leave our bedroom, thing and she doesnt listen. I got told off for running the water other night and she freezes every ******* morsal of left overs in sight. How we havent come down with food poisonign i dont know

Playing devils advocate here but she has been kind enough to put you up & have her entire life disrupted into the bargain. Can't imagine it's too easy for her either!















Of course, I have a 1 night limit with my MIL!

Its the opposite here. I have never seen so much food be chucked away. She has a morbid fascination with sell by dates and anything thats approaching its sell by date gets binned and she proper freaks if you so much as look at a yoghurt that has tomorrows date on it. I found the solution to this was to remove all labels from the food. If it smells bin it, if it dont then its fine is my motto. But the MIL is like a malfunctioning robot now...she clearly has no idea whats what and I'm pretty sure she will blow up very soon...highly amusing
