Meanwhile, I’ll be in the bathroom that has the escape window.

Maybe you still have time to move

Is that the only way out?

Is he installing those boards?!? Or removing them?!?

Check the location….the call came from inside the house. You trapped yourself inside with her!

I had many discussions with my mother-in-law over the way she treated her daughters. I told her that she could deal with my wife, the b!tch (to her mother, not me -my wife can play “hardball” when she has to), or the crazy one that lived overseas and that the youngest daughter, as much as she fought with her was “the nice one.”

I managed some level of respect from my M-i-L. I have a lot in common with her late husband. My father-in-law and I got along just fine. The day after my wife and I were married, we went to their house for dinner. As soon as I showed up, he said, “No refunds” and handed me a beer.

He must be expecting a hurricane

Don’t wast your time, she’s been known to come through the back door or slip through a window! ☺️

You’re going to need some bigger boards!!

How does he know that the guy telling him about his lottery winnings isn’t next?

That is a futile attempt to keep her out.

My wife and I both have great mothers-in-law.

Well, he’s tried everything else and nothing works. All that’s left is to grab the car keys and head for his favorite watering hole, unless he’s restricted to the house.

In the good old days you could just raise the drawbridge.

I see he is trying to make her feel welcome.

He’s been living on credit lately and had to charge for room and boards.

Impractical solution. He should just get out until MIL has come and gone. Of course, then he has to hope his wife didn’t decide to lock him out of the house for the night.
