Granny went to bed... I'm following suit. Thanks for chatting with me again!!! I feel so much better now.
Sweet dreams, Linda!

Well, I'm going. It's just not going to be pleasant. I can keep my mouth shut when she starts on a tear, but it's increasingly difficult to choose to sit around in a toxic environment. We'll be there several days.

This is your real mom right? I like the suggestions to be oblivious to her and party with the kiddos! What would happen if she started on a tear and you burst out laughing???


My two kids are the only kiddos. No idea what would happen if I started laughing.

It's not that she's a bad person, she just doesn't respect us as parents. She consistently undermines me in front of the kids, and she spoils DD way more than DS. Like, even 3-yo is starting to notice he's not getting as many toys and treats. Very vocal about what we should be doing differently in our lives. Somehow she's convinced that DH and I are having marital issues (we're not) and she keeps trying to give me advice. She likes to tell me that DH is not a real man because he goes camping with his friends (???) instead of spending time with his family? She also likes to tell me I need to sell the chickens and get rid of the dogs. Not real reasons for that, she just doesn't like them I guess.

I feel bad for her, because I know she had a hard life and has dealt with a lot of a use. But she's also dished out her fair share...

Anyway, sorry for the mini rant. My anxiety is all flared up because of this trip. Good thing I'm taking the pups, too. I'm sure one of them will always need a walk. :D
