I'm annoyed that my MIL still thinks she knows my kids better than I do and wants to get them whatever they want. We were at Steak and Shake for dinner, and they have kids eat free all weekend, so even though Abby was asking for an adult meal, I told her she needed to get a kids' meal, because they're free and we have tons of food at home, if she was still hungry later.
My MIL kept saying, "She's always so hungry; I've never known her to not eat all her food, especially here." Whatever, she always leaves food behind. Abby was pouting, so my MIL came up with the idea to get the free kids' meal, but also get her an adult meal. "Because I know how hungry you always are."
Umm, no. Not happening. Instead, I told Abby I would swap some of my adult meal with her kids' meal, and she cheered up after that (I wasn't overly hungry anyway). When they came, I tore a bit of my/her bun to give some bread to Caleb, and apparently, she wanted an untorn one, so my MIL traded buns with her.
Well, now, Abby's bun has mustard, so MIL scraped it off. Abby ate a few bites, but then wouldn't touch it. MIL insists that it's because of the mustard "Because I've never known you to not eat all your food here; you made Grandma into a liar."
Never mind that she's tired, had just had a late snack and lately has gotten into the habit of eating only the food she likes, declaring herself full and then wanting to eat an hour later when there was more appetizing food around. Never mind that she's MY child, not yours and I know MY child better than you do!!
Okay, maybe I was a little more annoyed than I thought.
Omg, my Mom is your MIL.
Seriously, she would have done all of those things. She is always informing me of things my children do. What they like or don't like. How they're feeling.
She sees them like once a month, maybe. She doesn't know anything!
My MIL sees my kids every 3 months. Granted, she talks to them once a week, but yeah, things change between August and November.

Well didn't you know, Mother In Law knows best! That's how the saying goes, right?
We were at mil for dinner yesterday and like ten min before dinner I saw matilda walk by eating a banana. Wtf? She said "oh she got it herself!" Really?she peeled herself a banana? No
Then she would t eat dinner. Shockingly. Then mil is handing her pie and Im like uhh no. No pie unless you eat dinner
I am at the point where I am going to lose my shit if we don't get home soon. We are now in who the fuck knows where PA while my H searches for a Panera. I prefer to just not eat If I smell Mcdonalds one more time I will become homicidal or vomit.
Omg we had thanksgiving w the ILs yesterday. 4 grandkids which macy is the youngest. MIL gives Macy a huge bag of candy. And none of the other kids. Why I don't know. So I make her share with them and they all have suckers. I put the bag in my purse to hide so she wouldn't ask for any more. Later MIL goes macy do you want a lollipop? Go ask your mama if she hid them in her purse. Thanks MIL! Oh and H tells me later she only gave macy candy bc SIL doesn't like her giving her kids candy. Yet we also tell her not to all the time. I mean one piece is fine but she is giving her ziplock bags full all the time.
I'm so sick of dealing with pee!!! One of the cats peed all over the couch yesterday and as we started to deal with it our power went out for almost 24 hours. So we left the pee and dealt with our house being 50 degrees this morning. The power came back on at 8am and the warmer temp made the pee start to reek even worse. As we were cleaning up the couch G started playing with the compost so I sent her to wash her hands in the bathroom. She stood on her name stool at the sink and peed all over it. It's unsealed MDF so I'm not sure if the pee really comes out.

In the mail we just got a notice from the condo association that we are in violation of a condo rule. Lol. We have a "non authorized" toy bin outside. Fuck fuck fuck, I was hoping they would never catch us. Wahhh
