Hi Learning,

I want to second Anita’s suggestion that your MIL should call your mother directly. From what I read food (unasked for) was prepared, and you swung by the house (unannounced). I mean me and my DH hate when people stop by. I could be in the bathroom, meditating, sleeping, etc. It’s always best to call first. Your MIL for being older and wiser/”wiser” should have known that doing this was setting her up for failure.

The other thing is I wouldn’t ask her any more loaded questions. Or any questions. Think “Easy, Breezy, Beautiful Covergirl” if you remember that commercial. Be nice, happy, and surface-y around her. Not fake surface-y. You know what I mean LOL.

Oh dear. Well, good luck going forward. I hope you get your own place soon!

Best,

Inky
