ok girls, i know all of you will get a big kick out of this……. my mil and i got in a huge fight about her dogs being around my daughter about a month ago. well, since then she hasn’t seen my daughter, but she’s went way longer than that without seeing her since she’s been born. on average, she comes up about 1 time a month. anyways, dh wanted a new lawnmower, we have a lot of acres and we need a big one. well, every time dh wants something and tells her, she goes out and buys it for HERSELF, and then has to rub it in his face. well, she went out and got herself the lawnmower that dh wanted!!! i’m not just talking about a regular ol lawnmower, i mean like a tractor, and of course she had to brag about how much it cost $14,000 (by the way, she was an only child and when her mother died, she got a buttload of money). so now, every time our grass needs cut, here she comes with the mower that dh wanted but couldn’t afford, mowing our grass!!!! so anyways, what i’m getting at here is this, she don’t care about seeing her only grandchild, but she can come up here to mow grass because that’s important. what a loon!!!! by the way, she lives next door! any thoughts?

Oh I have a thought.Next time you and the baby need something you should say it maybe she’ll run out and buy it.Or maybe you should just have fun with the situation and say all the stuff you’d love to have(but dont need at the time)so she can go out waste all that money and you get the last laugh.Make her look like a freak that she is.God and next door lol ask for the biggest fence!!!!!!!See if she can out on up for the both of you.Let me know what happends~

GREAT! All the time that DH would be spending on the lawn, he will be spending with you. :)

My MIL does similar things with the shopping and buying. She is constantly trying to out do other grandparents with thier gifts.

I am soooo tried of her guilt shopping! Maybe your MIL and mine can hook up and shop together!
