Default why lizzy needs a margarita.

let me start off by tellin you that my mil is a controlling 4'10" korean woman.
(still with me?)

i cannot even begin to tell you how frustrated i have been since last wednesday when then arrived. my mil is like this person who thinks that the minute she walks in my door little forrest elves should start to sing her their praise while pixies and fairies massage her tiny feet and the other woodland creatures adorne her with some pointy crown that says this is my palace, my rules apply, mine mine mine.

why does she think that she is automatically in charge of me and my household. first of all i am a 5'7" husky mexcian, that could take her down so fast she wouldn't even know what happened. second, I AM NOT A PUSHOVER! there has never been one time that i have appeared intimidated or timid around her. i'm intense. that's how i roll.

ok...so with all this being said she now thinks that she has the right to tell me when i have had enough computer time.

so...if i am a little quiet around here it is not because i am "afraid" of my mil it's cause i'm busy kicking the crap out of her. comprende?

as a Korean woman I have only one response to your post

bwhahahahahahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaahahahahahahahhahaha haaaaaaaaaaa!

I can so picture the type of person you're dealing with, i.e., some of my mother's friends.

Koreans can be quite pushy and a bit overbearing. Not me, of course. I'm a doormat.

good luck (keeping your sanity) !

awwww, honey. Want me to come over and kick her tiny Korean butt? While you are a "husky" mexican woman, I am an even husky-er irish/german woman. And that is just plain scary.
Sorry she's being such a pain.

I'm really sorry you have to deal with this. Listening to people talk about their MIL horror stories just brings back memories of mine. She and I really got along until I married her son. Then suddenly I wasn't good enough for him. But then again that might have also had something to do with his lying B**** sister, but that's another story for a different day. Hope things get better for you soon or atleast that they don't stay to long.

Hope they aren't staying much longer!!!!

OMG I am rolling! You guys are too much. Makes me glad that all mine does is remind me when it's -40C to give my kids mittens. Nah, I didn't think they'd need them today, I thought they'd like to have instant-frozen-skin.

Otherwise, mine is GREAT, so I can't complain at all. I would seriously not be able to handle that!

Sounds like the MIL of my friend/co-worker - except she's Phillipino (but tiny too). Does the same exact thing when she gets into town. And my friend is a 5'7" German-American, so it does not go over well with her either. You two should compare notes, lol....
Hang in there...

ROFL, Lizzy! Aren't you done beating her, yet?

I love to hear MIL stories, makes me feel less lonely. I have recently had to explain to my boys, "No, it is not normal for grandmas to stick a whole steak in their purses at the buffet." "Yes, it is stealing." and "Yes, the police might come and take her to jail." Oh, wait that last one is just wishful thinking.

No wonder you have such cute kids. Korean and Mexican - what a great mix! Being from Hawai'i where there a lot of Koreans, I now what you're going through and I'm sorry.

That's rich! See, now when we go to my MIL's (which is rare since we live on different continents) I'm saying to my kiddo, "No, it's NOT normal for floors to be so clean you can eat off of them." "No, sweetie, most people DON'T eat home cooked meals every night, just Mimi & Doc." "Yes, you're right. Our house would look nicer if Mommy picked up every day like Mimi does." What a bad influence she is.
