MIL is NUTS. DH called her this morning and she bitched about how she needs an A/C and how she wants him to buy her one. We have bought her 2 of them the last 2 summers but she gives them away claiming they cost too much to keep (electric bill). DH reminded her that last summer when she gave it away that not to come to him again because he will not waste his money again. To ask his moocher bother for an a/c (he was the one who took it). When we got back home she left him a message saying I think you should know I was taken to the ER on 6/9 and have the flu. I'm home very sick, completely congested, mucous everywhere. You should know this..but sorry for bothering you. Talking about NUTS [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

Is she elderly? My knee jerk is to say 'wow, what a nut job' but then again it is his mom and maybe he needs to give her one more chance to respect his request to not give away the A/Cs he buys. [ Reply | More

op; she is older but she complains every yr of the heat but complains more of the cost of using a fan, a/c, cooler, ceiling fan, ect. I've been with him for 16yrs and whenever we have bought her something to make the summer more comfortable, she complains and gives it away. He has had it with her passive agressive behavior [ Reply | More
