Talk to your husband about it, it's his mother. If he's sane, he's noticed something about this at some point in his life with her. Try not inviting her over, changing the locks, ignoring her, or moving away without offering a forwarding address.

Well it is hard to ignore the stupid and the ignorant, however, it sounds as if you have been doing a great job. Don't let this woman get the best of you, then it brings you down to her level. When you look at her, picture her with her mouth zipped shut, just picture something that will put a smile on your face. That will drive her nuts!! And if she doesn't like the way you clean your home, tell her to clean it herself to her satisfaction and do it right in front of your hubby and her son. You might be surprised if you just put her in her place one time, it might be the thing that needs to be done and you will feel sooooooooo good about this. Now, girl, you don't let that ol' woman get to you, you are much better than that.

well welcome to the thing call Mother in laws from Hell.The only thing I would suggest is to put her in her place and make sure you try and do it kindly but with her knowing you do not appreciate her criticism and do not have to take it.It is Not right at all for her to come into your house and complain ,I am sure she has her on problems she needs to be working on.And I would not let your Children go over for visits if she is drinking,the kids are not safe in that environment.My Son Just got married in Sep and I vowed not to but in to there Life.I may make a suggestion but I always let them no it is just what I think and feel they do not have to take it.I will Not be a Mother in law from Hell!!
