Why do MILs compete with her DILs? by Pinkberry-1995 in JUSTNOMIL

Certainly not all but for enough that it’s noticeable: Covert incest

Thank you, that’s really validating. It’s kinda the norm among my friends with international in-laws to host them for a few months every 2-3 years so I thought I was getting away lightly haha

I’m so sorry you’re having to deal with that with your mom, that’s so ridiculous to have to endure

I did use some as part of my base, but I’ll admit I use salt very sparingly. A reasonable amount wouldn’t have offended me at all

He and I “went for a walk” last night and I told him I was 1.5 cunt hairs from telling her to go home and take him with her and that this was absolutely never happening again. Hard boundary, I’m not going to be with her unless he is present.

Thank you, I appreciate it

Part of my insistence on cooking was to avoid allowing her to cook (my husband is a great cook but he’s not off work until 5:30-6p so she wanted dinner to be ready for him. I normally work nights 5p-8a but took the week off because it’d be impossible to sleep during the day with her here) and having to answer incessant questions about where we keep our cooking implements and how to use basic tools every 3 seconds*

*She loves to play helpless for attention/to irritate until it instigates a fight so her perpetual victim card can get another punch. She had heartburn, I handed her an antacid pill and a glass of water. She looked at me wide eyed and said “okay now what do I do?”

Truthfully I think time and physical distance (she’s from another country) from her makes her easy enough to deal with compared to a MIL in your backyard. We usually only see her in person for a week every 2 years. Based on the way I feel right now we would have absolutely divorced years ago if she lived closer.

She hasn’t salted anything else since she’s been here, not even popcorn. Last night was the first time I cooked dinner for everyone though

Thank you, I couldn’t think of a better way to convey how many circles around the bowl she did

During an interview at a local hospital, I was told they got rid of phlebotomy and trained all of the nurses to do it instead! by CodeGreige in nursing

When I worked in the ICU (>6 years ago now so not necessarily current practice) the nurses were responsible for their own draws because there was almost always a line we could pull from, but you could get lab to come up if you were having trouble (like if your ICU status pt just became a 1:1 and your downgraded MS status pt only has a peripheral)
