In laws never want to speak to me as long as they live- I feel like I won the lottery

I made a post on here a while back on how my Inlaws had just destroyed me and my husband in how they act and treat us. We sold our home to come take care of them and the second the home sold, they became a nightmare. My MIL is hypercritical and judgemental. She has stated before she wishes me and my husband divorce soon then will pretend to him im crazy. His dad has early dementia and will parrot whatever she does but with anger issues. Until a few months ago, I would record his father’s outbursts but I never could get his mom’s so it was always hard for my husband to defend me without it because she would say he had no proof I wasnt lying.

One day she was going off on me about how horrible my mother raised me and how she had half the mind to tell my mother how horrible i was. I had enough so I pulled up my phone to record her. I live in a state in which this is perfectly legal and it was only an audio recording but halfway through her rant, she noticed my phone was out and had a meltdown, threatening to call the cops. I sent it to my husband and when he came home he calmly listened to her lie about how I verbally attacked her unprovoked before he simply asked her to swear she didnt say anything remotely close to insulting my mother and my upbringing. She lost it.

It was hours of them fighting. She wished I wasn’t here, I ruined their family, she hoped I stayed infertile, hopes he leaves me, how hes “pussy whipped” and how one day he’ll wake up and realize “moms always been right about women” (yuck). My husband has also been sober for a long time now and she threw it in his face that she was upset we navigated it as a couple without her and because of that it didnt matter how many years he was sober or how short of a period it was, she would never say she believed he could overcome it without her. She screamed he was a better mom to both of us than anyone could ever be (also yuck) and threatened to call the cops because I laughed at her saying that and said she felt I was going to physically harm her (i was sitting on my couch the whole time she was screaming and literally didn’t say a single thing the whole time).

Because of this, i am no longer allowed to use the kitchen or washer which is not an issue, I bought an airfryer for my side of the house and I go to the laundromat next to my gym. I also am only allowed to use the fridge for my life saving medication also not an issue, I work next to a store so I get my things as I eat them. We are saving to leave and my husband once we leave is going little to nc.

Since then though, they haven’t spoken to me since and hate me but cannot retaliate since my husband does a lot of favors for them and he stopped once when they were acting up. I finally have one step closer to peace and this year we are going to visit my family for the holidays- the first time in 7 years. My husband got a better job so we can save more and he’s home more to safeguard me incase they freak out again. We take our dogs on day trips and drives to stay out of the home and we have lost weight now so it’s just getting better and better. My depression is at its lowest.

We look at homes and we feel the finish line looks closer to us. Im glad we stuck it out and we could be each other’s support system. I hope my next update will be us finally moving!
