MIL Destroyed My Flower Garden for Gnomes—Karma’s Revenge Was Sweet

My MIL Ruined My Flower Garden and Replaced It with Hideous Gnomes — But Karma Hit back with a Vengeance After weeks of taking care of my mom, I was devastated to discover my beloved garden converted into a plastic nightmare when I got home. Unaware that her actions would result in retaliation, my mother-in-law had secretly given it a “makeover”.Although I’ve been married to Tom for five years, my relationship with Linda, his mother, hasn’t been easy. She’s one of those moms who believe they are the experts on everything, particularly when it comes to their “precious” boys.Regretfully, it also implies that Linda lacks a sense of self-control and is constantly trying to get involved in every part of our lives. Really, in every way! My passion for gardening is among the things Linda seems incapable of appreciating. Taking care of my small plot of land is more than simply a pastime for me. It is my haven.Nothing makes me happier than getting my hands dirty, planting fresh flowers, or just relaxing amid the blooms

I’ve tended to after a demanding workday. I’ve spent many hours over the years studying different plants, experimenting with different kinds, and weaving a vibrant tapestry of flowers that makes me happy to look at.However, Linda? She has never enjoyed it. “Stacey, my dear,” she would begin in her patronizing manner, “don’t you think your garden looks a little… out of style? You ought to think about something more contemporary. Then she would continue talking about the clean, simple yards she had seen in her upscale home décor publications. I knew my garden was mine, and I didn’t care if it didn’t suit her tastes; I would just smile and nod. < I had no idea that Linda’s criticism of my garden would cause one of the most major problems in our already troubled relationship.
