Immature Mother in Law

Today has been funny. This past Sunday, we got a call from Chad's cousin, Robbie, who is living next door with Grandma Snavely. He was letting us know that my dog had been let out of the yard by Clovis Sheriff's Department. Robbie's girlfriend/wife (we're not entirely sure) apparently had a warrant out for her, and so they'd come looking around. Well, when they went in the backyard, they left the gate open, and my dog got out. So she took off down the street, and I finally got her back home. Anyway, the Sheriff's Department denied being in the backyard, but Robbie saw them out there, and there was no other way for the dog to get out unless the gate had been opened (we have hot wires everywhere!). So then the mystery was: who had called them to come out? Well, yesterday Chad called Verizon to check his mom's phone to see if she had called them. There has been a lot of stress between her and us, her and Robbie/Crysta, her and Grandma, her and everyone basically. Well, as it turned out, the number for the Sheriff was right there, plain to see on the call history list. So when Blaine, my father in law, confronted her about it, she had no way to prove it wasn't her. But, being her, she denied it anyway and is now throwing a hissy fit. She brought her box in for Dish Network today, and set it on Blaine's coffee table with a note that said "I have $100 to my name. I will return the phone (her cell phone) when I buy a pay phone. I'm fed up with all the BS." I just had to laugh! She causes all this controversy, and this is how she reacts?! Well, my first thought was "Well, if she hadn't done anything, why get rid of her phone?" My second thought was "There's less money for Blaine to have to spend on her." He supports her 100% after being divorced for over 30 years. When she lost her house 4 years ago, he told her she could put a trailer out back and live here for a few months until she got back on her feet. Needless to say, she never got back on her feet and is still here. So now she's throwing a hissy fit for being caught red handed! LOL!!!
