[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 284914, member: 84"] Janet those are good ideas. Problem is that mother in law is not truely confused, woman is sharp as a tack. And I doubt would cooperate folding clothes or matching socks. Um......she had a maid for years cuz she hated that. lmao:raspberry-tounge: She won't do the movies. Tried that, but she keeping messing up the vcr so bad it takes Travis 3 days to get it fixed again. So now she won't try to watch movies. I do call her and tell her when particularly good ones are on, what channel ect, or the dog show. :) mother in law called again when husband came home. I just handed the phone over. He wasn't a happy camper. So he did the calling of sister in law. Called her on his cell. mother in law called [B]again[/B] in the middle of his phone call. I took it. mother in law said him calling her back with the info wasn't good enough, she needed to see him [B]in person[/B] to relay the info. Now when husband found out I hadn't taken mother in law's calls he was irrate. Until I gave him the message she needed to see him in person just to get the news on the darn house. Then he blew a gasket. I simply told him, Now you know why I haven't answered the phone, dear.:happy: Still........he drove clear across town and sat with her an hour and a half just to tell her what she [B][I]already knew[/I][/B].:angry::ashamed: If husband wants to coddle her, he's more than welcome. But I'm not gonna do it. mother in law refuses to socialize at the ASL. She's got the drama going full force. And now I've figured out where husband gets it from, although I'd have never have guessed, his [B][I]mother[/I][/B]. mother in law doesn't want to be at the assisted living. I think she was secretly hoping she'd run out of money and get to go home. And since she's not going anywhere.....I think she's decided to make all of us as miserable as she is. Venting here is invaluable. It let's me keep a smile on my face and a cheery disposition when I go to see her. Which since she's now POed at me as well as sister in law........may be a while.
