We often hear stories in which mothers-in-law are depicted as evil. Sadly, they sometimes really are and the reason behind it might be that they feel like their daughters-in-law ‘steal’ their sons from them.
A woman named Janisse shared the story of how her MIL plotted against her in order to turn her husband against her.
It was Janisse’s husband’s birthday and she was looking forward to the party she was preparing for him. She planned to invite all of Carl’s friends and family and wanted everything to go according to plan.
But just as she was getting ready to start preparing the food, Carl’s mother, Sally, called her and told her she wanted to help her with the preparations.
As Janisse always got along with her husband’s family, or at least she thought so, she told her MIL that she was more than welcome to lend her a helping hand.
When Sally arrived, she did help with the food, but in the afternoon, she started acting weird. As she was digging around the fridge and sighed every few minutes, she accused Janisse of not purchasing certain ingredient she needed for some special cookies.
“I can’t find any ingredients for the cookies I wanted to make. I told you that I would make the cookies I’ve made every year for Carl,” Sally said.
“We have so many desserts and the cake as well. So, I think it’s okay. We can do it another day for him,” Janisse told her.
“Janisse,” Sally sighed. “It’s really important to me, okay? It’s a tradition I started when Carl was only three years old. Can you go out and get the ingredients?”
As there was not much time left until the guests were about to arrive, Janisse decided to go to the store, which wasn’t that far, and grab the ingredients her MIL needed.
On her way home, Janisse felt like a superhero because she knew the party would be a great one, but her joy was short lived.
The moment Janisse opened the car’s door, Carl burst out of the house like she’d committed a crime and he wanted to catch her in the act. He accused her of leaving his mother all alone to prepare everything for the party. When she explained that wasn’t the case and it wasn’t as it looked like, he told her she wasn’t telling the truth.
Janisse tried to tell him that she was the one who prepared most of the food and that she only took a short trip to the store to grab the ingredients for the traditional cookies his mom made for him, but he said there were no such cookies and that she was childish to believe that ‘cookie tradition.’
Still unaware what was going on, Janisse went to her room. She had a quick shower and shortly after the guests started to arrive.
Carl avoided Janisse all evening, and when the time came for the cake to be served it was Sally who brought it to the table and started singing “Happy Birthday.”
Sally acted as though she was host and it looked like she was the one who was throwing the party for her son, not Janisse.
When the guests left and Janisse and Carl were alone, she tried to explain what really happened and that his mom plotted against her, but he didn’t want to listen because he was certain his mom would never do such a thing.
The following morning, Carl woke Janisse up and apologized for not trusting her. Janisse was puzzled and asked him what made him change his mind about the entire situation. He then explained that his mother was bragging to someone about her master plan, but she accidentally sent the message to Carl.
Carl then went to the other room, in which his mom spent the night, and tried to talk to her in order to learn why she would do such a horrible thing. It turned out that contrary to what Janisse believed, her MIL didn’t really like her because of her political and religious beliefs. Janisse was shocked because her MIL never mentioned anything about it before.
However, no matter what Sally did, Carl and Janisse decided to forgive her eventually.
“We’re going to Bali to celebrate your birthday next year,” I told him. “No friends, no family, and absolutely no drama!” Janisse told her husband.
Jennifer Lopez Snaps Selfies and Poses on Bow of a Boat in Italy During Solo Summer Vacation
Amidst marital difficulty, the singer has been enjoying a holiday overseas sans husband Ben Affleck.
People, grab your sun hats because Jennifer Lopez is having the time of her life while on a summer vacation by herself in the gorgeous countryside of Italy! Jenny from the Block is out here taking selfies and enjoying the Mediterranean sun, so forget about the drama, marital problems, and rumor mill that never stops spinning.
Jennifer Lopez is vacationing in Italy and is truly living the good life! On Thursday, the 54-year-old Atlas star was spotted relaxing topside on a Mediterranean yacht with pals. Oh yes, my dear reader, she was living the high life as she made her way down a rocky beach pathway (not a single Instagram filter in site!) to get on a tiny dinghy that would take her to her floating paradise.
Imagine J. Lo sporting a gorgeous little woven purse, matching heels (because why not? ), gold accessories, and a white one-piece swimsuit. She was sitting on the chairs, taking pictures of herself and posing as though she ruled the Mediterranean.
It’s more than just a lighthearted spectacle. Lopez postponed her concert tour, according to Live Nation, on May 31 in order to spend more time with her kids, relatives, and close friends. How about putting the important things first? Affleck is currently in the United States, managing their seven children and focusing on his most recent endeavor, The Accountant 2.
Her trips around Italy are now legendary. Lopez is a holiday pro, from sun-kissed days on yachts to glitzy evenings in Milan. She was spotted showing off her abs only last Tuesday while sporting a cream-colored bandeau top and matching shorts. Italy truly knows how to make a girl feel special!
It’s not her first time to Italy, either. The celebrity has long been a fan of the nation, praising its charm and attraction in a number of interviews. Among her famous Italian adventures include her 2022 honeymoon with Affleck, which included trips to Milan and Lake Como, and a 52nd birthday celebration on a boat off the Amalfi Coast.
