Maybe it's time to leave....

My hubby got a frantic phone call from his mother the other night. She lives in California with his sister and her family and has been there for about 3 years now...a rather long visit in my opinion. So, my mother-in-law (MIL) calls very upset to report that my sister's husband is secretly videotaping her while she is in her bedroom! Now, if you knew my brother-in-law...probably one of the nicest, most benign people you would ever meet, you would know that this is preposterous. After listening to his mother go on and on about the intolerable videotaping sessions, he called his sister to get the real story. Apparently, my brother-in-law had disassembled an old computer and had placed some of the pieces in his MIL's room for storage. One of these computer pieces was an old webcam that no longer worked. It was placed on a shelf in her room. Well, she recognized it, knew what it was and decided that there was a conspiracy to secretly videotape her and send it out over the internet! She called her sisters in San Francisco and told them the same thing. The awful part? Stu's aunt called him and demanded that he speak to Luis (sis's hubby) to remove that awful camera......(shaking my head)....I truly think it is time for my MIL to head home...3 years is an awful long time to live with your daughter.....
