Hi. I haven't posted on here for a while, but I need to get things off my chest now. I feel like I am cracking up.....sorry, this may be long!
As most problems in my life...this is another to do with MIL! She has always hated me because i took her son away from her. She has been a cow to me and her other son and family have never spoken to me...ever!! I've tried umpteen times to fix this but I always come off worse. Anyway, dh owns the house she is living in. She doesn't pay rent as we thought it was mean to charge her anything. Now, though we have an opportunity to relocate to another country(due to dh's job) so dh was tying up loose ends so we could maybe go before xmas. He needed his mum to sign another tenancy agreement as we have to get the mortgage on her house fixed so the payments will constantly be the same for 2 years....but she has refused! We cannot move away until things on that house is sorted as the amount it is costing now with changes in interest rates is getting hard to pay, but she won't let us change it. Dh has no alternative but to sell it with his mum as a tenant. This is possible and we had a chap interested, but she will not allow anyone to view the house. So we are screwed. We can't move, we can't sell her house and we still ahve a mortgage to pay on it as well as our own mortgage. We have had screaming matches from dh's brother and his wife....threatening to come down to see us, and we have 2 small children in the house. I am a constant nervous wreck. I won't open the curtains or answer the door or phone. I have turned into a prisoner.
I can't believe she has ruined this great opportunity for us.
Sorry, I have waffled on....I am just so upset and angry with this whole situation. Thanks for listening.
