[quote=YINDUFFY,298403]JimmyB,
     I had our spare bedroom set up as an office with a desk, our main computer, bookshelves and telephone. Now my wife's mom sleeps there and actually spends most of her time there. We moved the big desk to the basement and bought a bed. She goes to bed early so I can't really use the room as an office anymore and we do most work on the dining room table.
    When her Mom first came, she helped in preparing meals and my wife told me she was disappointed at how bad a cook she was. I have come home from work several times to find the smell of gas in the kitchen from the stove being turned on but not lit. Now she has orders not to try and light the stove by herself. My wife jokingly calls our 5 year old daughter "little trouble" and her Mom "Big trouble".
   We only took her in against my wishes because she was refused by all the other daughters-in-law.
    It is like having two children. We cannot let Grandma stay alone with our daughter because she would be useless in any kind of emergency.
   I only let her stay out of sympathy for my wife who would feel bad for the rest of her life if she were to kick her mom out.[/quote]
