  Thanks mstar.  Dan knows she has to apologize directly to me, not just a "tell Gianna I'm sorry for what I said" (which I haven't received either, btw).  I told him that I wasn't going to let our kids (we don't have them yet, this is hypothetical) be around a person who was going to disrespect their mother, and I'm worried about what happens if one of the kids makes their grandma mad.  Is she going to call them stupid assholes, too?  ARGH.  I'm very disappointed and upset by this whole ordeal.

  I'm sorry for everything she said about you.  She needs help and I cannot believe that you FI's father (I'm assuming they are still married since they came to your house together) would be okay with her acting like this towards his children and future daughter in law. 
  
  Stick to your guns.  FI's mother called me fat, the worst thing in his life, that I ruined his life, that I was a snob and worthless.  FI was furious and didn't talk to his mom for months.  Finally, she pestered him enough that he was willing to visit her again.  I told FI until she apologized directly to my face that she wasn't allowed in our house and I would never allow her around our children.  She hadn't thought about the fact that I'll be the mother of her future grandchildren and pissing me off means no access to them.  She's since apologized and is remotely civil with me now.  Just make sure your FI backs you up.

  Ugh sounds like you have a peach of a MIL to deal with. Good luck but it sounds like she has issues. You cant even "tread lightly" becuase you did not even do anythng to set her off in the slightest. Im so sorry you have to deal with this.
  
  On a better note,
  OMG....amazing countertops. You have skills lady! Kudos to you
