F**king family, they are driving me crazy

[MaryP0p1]

This includes my mother, my father and my MIL. I live 1000 miles away and still they can press my buttons.

that's because they installed them

And don't I know it

I view it not that 'they' installed them, rather than 'you' installed them. Approach your difficulties from a new angle, ie, think outside your box and learn a new way to deal with it. I ought to know. My family lives 7 timezones away and have all fallen out with me.

In my view, I am the only person who can guarantee to make myself happy or unhappy.

Try your MIL rings to ask aboput weather her suitcase is okay. Gets an answer from me as DH with plumber and then going to builders yard. I say is there anything else or does DH need to ring you back and she snaps I'm sure DH can spare ME five minutes. AHHHHHHHH

At least she asks you!!!!! Think mine would wait and ask him! My mil is very nice but as I am quite a bit older than dh I sometimes think she thinks I am his age and dont know anything!!!!

Ditto plus I have taken her son away..

I keep reminding myself that he chose to live with me...didnt have a choice with her!!!!

As far as I can see nobody chose to live with her. (sorry in that kind of mood).
