I guess I'm just in a p!$$y mood today! Maybe it's hormones. Maybe it's that this stinking BCP's really do make me grouchy and I should just bite the bullet and go back to Yasmin and pay the full price for it. But I just have to VENT!!! These people take the cake!!!!
Right now, my inlaws are way down on the list of people I'd like to not have to have anything to do with right now. I should have known that moving into that house was going to cause problems. They think they've got something they can hold over our heads and I'm sick and tired of DH being in a bad mood all the time because they're always ragging on him!
When we moved in there, we agreed to $XOO a month for rent/utilities combined. Two weeks after we moved in, DH informed me that we needed to pay the rent that week. Ummmm… OK. I thought we were getting a free month as had been discussed previously, but alright. The second month, I was told that I needed to mail the rent on the same schedule we'd have with our previous landlord… As long as it was mailed on the 10th, it would be there in time for them to pay their payment on the 17th. No problem. So, I mailed it on the 10th, and on the 11th, they were griping because they didn't have it yet. They ragged on him for a week about how we owed them and they were doing us a favor by letting us live there until DH told them he was tired of their $#!+. We paid rent and we did what we agreed to and got nothing by grief. His dad started in about paying the cell phone bill and DH told him he never asked for the stinking cell phone and he'd call and have it turned off right then if FIL had a problem with it. FIL was the one that wanted DH to have a cell phone because he's in LA and DH is here trying to tie up FIL's loose ends with the old church, etc. FIL changed his tune on that one real fast. DH told him we were doing fine without them and they could shove it. Just because they're going through withdrawal without us, it doesn't mean that we can't cope with real life without them. Ticked FIL off, but it's needed to be said for YEARS! They didn't call us for over a week. It was quite pleasant. Well…. So, last month, MIL decides that she needs the rent BY THE 10th, not mailed on the 10th. So, they wanted us to send them a check at the beginning of the month postdated for the 10th. I DO NOT post date checks. I just don't think it's right. But I did it. Well, guess what… It didn't get postmarked on the 1st but DH reminded me that night and I sent it out with the company mail the next time my boss went out to the PO. Ummmm…. It's still not there. Well, you want me to do exactly WHAT about that? I mailed the stinking thing! I don't work for the post office. I can't tell you exactly where it is. The PO sucks. I'm not paying $18 to send it overnight. It should be there by now. Yet they're berating DH that it's not there yet. It's been mailed. Gimmee a break. You said you could afford to float it if it was a little late. Your payment's not due for another full week. It will be there. I don’t want to hear how hard they have it and how awful their finances are. They both have jobs. They're both making more money than they have ever made before. So, I get this IRATE email from DH today saying they're mad again and that he's tired of this cr@p and that next month, he wants is mailed ON THE 1st. OK-FINE! I knew this was a bad idea. They can't make up their minds what they want when, so how are we supposed to friggin abide by that. We have no stinking contract.
And people don't understand why I don't want DH to work for his dad. They don't understand why I'm so unhappy when he's around him all the time. My inlaws are SO negative. They think of themselves as upbeat and positive, but they're not. They're pessimistic control freaks. And being around them puts DH in SUCH a bad mood. Not like he's not in enough of a funk from not working and having to keep the kid all the time. So, that means I have to deal with his bad mood when I get home. I've worked all day and I don't want to hear anything negative when I get home.
I don’t even want to go to Delaware for Thanksgiving now. Not to mention that because of some work we did for them that they haven't paid us for, we now have no extra cash for gas to be able to go. If we do go, I'm handing them a check for NEXT MONTH's rent before THIS MONTH is ever over. Then I don't have to deal with them until January if I don't want to.
To make matters worse, after I get this email from DH about his parents last little temper tantrum, I get this "nice" email from his mom asking me to look for school uniforms for a couple of kids in their school since I ran across such a good deal. Yeah, right. BITE ME!!!!!
ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

I'm so sorry they're treating you this way...they sound like very unfair and unreasonable people to me!
Well, Robyn, we HAVE been looking for an excuse to get together. 
I would email them and ask them to have a check mailed out to you for your work you guys did for them no later than the 1st of the month!
