Frustrated Vent

I'm starting to go crazy living here again.  I love that FFIL is allowing FI and I to live here to make it more affordable to go to school and for me to transition my business to this area... but living this close to FSIL is soooo frustrating.

The lastest thing?  While we were gone over Christmas she came into the house and took all of our condiments out of the fridge (ketchup, mustard, and I'm pretty sure our tartar sauce, too).  Well now we need these things for our dinner tonight and there is hardly anything left in the bottles.  These were practically brand new when we left.  At least 3/4 full.  Now, so little left it's not even a full serving.

FI's thought was "Oh, we'll just go buy more"... um.  No.  We won't.  Your sister needs to go and buy US new bottles.  I know mustard isn't going to break the bank, but I don't work hard to buy her food!  She's an adult and can buy her own damn mustard!

I know, I'm overreacting over stupid mustard, but it's just one more thing to throw on the stack of really annoying things that she does.

I believe in a lot of things. I believe in fresh tennis balls, the healing power of bunnies, and that the novels of Susan Sontag are something I'll never read. In fact, I don't even know who Susan Sontag is. What is she... like... a painter? I believe in Crystal Lite because I believe in ME. I believe in the movies of Val Kilmer, though these days it ain't so easy. I believe in Darren Sproles, the word "dabble", the first season of "Silk Stockings", and big, warm, moist, gooey chocolate chip cookies that melt in your mouth and all over your face.

Re: Frustrated Vent

  • I'm confused. You live w/ your future IL's and your FSIL came over and used the condiments? Did she take them out of the house, use them, and return them? Or does she live there, too?

  • OMG that would piss me off too. I understand your frustration, but as you said, it's just mustard.  Take a breath and try to enjoy your dinner :)

  • I think I've explained this before, but we all live on the same property.  It's huge... there are three houses, 2 acres of land, a workshop, garage with this loft space above it, etc.  So FI and I live in the main house and FSIL lives in the guest house.  Whenever we're not home she comes over and steals our hand towels and now, aparently, our condiments.  I'm pretty sure she also empty our cabinet of our cleaners because most of those are nowhere to be found, too.
