UPDATE!!! We are bringing the dog with us. DH told MIL and she immediately decided on her own not to come with us. So he didn't have to use the new backbone entirely yet, but he was ready to do so. And somehow now she has money for her own room....?

@oliviaoblivia: You should brush your dog and carry his shedded fur in a baggie in your purse and just slop it on her every time you see her. Muhahah.

If staying at a cheaper hotel is going to make her look "poor" to her friends, let her friends pay for the more expensive hotel. Glad it worked out on its own and funny how she suddenly can have the money to pay for her own room.
@rubies-love that idea

@oliviaoblivia: Oh Lord. See I'm mean and I would have TOTALLY called her out on suddenly having enough money now that she's no longer interested in taking advantage of you. I really feel for you in this situation!!

@MamaMoose: I would have, but DH made the call. Not like she talks to me anyway.
It's funny if she calls and I pick up his phone she's like "who is this?" as if there are a whole bunch of women who answer his phone.
Once she showed up unannounced to our new apartment and I answered the door and she said "sorry, wrong apartment" and started to walk away. I'm the invisible woman apparently.

@oliviaoblivia: What the heck???? I am SO sorry that you have to deal with all of this craziness! I’m glad that the hotel thing got sorted out but the way that she treats you is just…crazy.

@MamaMoose: I know. I wish I had just let her leave so that she wouldn't know where we live.

@oliviaoblivia: yikes!! Every time I think it's as crazy as it can get, it gets crazier! I'm so sorry you have to deal with all this - I hope that seeing the reaction of the hive is making you feel better though

@Rachel: yep. I should write a book.
And yeah, the hive totally makes me feel better! That this is the norm in my life makes me forget just how nuts it is sometimes.

Wow, I'm really glad to hear she isn't staying with you!! I was going to say - I really like my MIL, but I still wouldn't let her share a hotel room with me and DH. MAYBE if it was only for one night, but that is still really really pushing it. No, you need your space that is just wrong.

And i definitely would not pay for any of our parents hotel rooms! We don't have the money in the first place, but even if we did that is such a huge burden to take on

@oliviaoblivia: @purrpletulips: I figure she would TOTALLY hate you for it but at least she would have a reason to as opposed to being just crazy for no reason.
