Today, I came home from work to find my grandmother in my living room, demanding to know where I'd been all day. I'm 22 and live by myself. She stole my mother's emergency key to get in. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my grandma calls me, accusing me of theft. I was home all day and watching Orange Is The New Black. When I asked what I stole, she said her car keys. I don’t even have my license. I told her to look in her purse. She found them. FML
Today, I came home after a long day at work to find the furniture in my living room had been rearranged by my mother-in-law. When asked how she got in, she told us she stole my husband's key and made herself a copy. She can now come here whenever she wants, unless I change the locks. FML
Today, I came home at 1 am to find my mom sitting on my couch, ranting about how I'm not supposed to stay up this late. I'm 26 and I don't know how she got into my house. FML
Today, I went to pay my grandma a visit. She called the cops because she didn't recognize me and thought I was a robber. FML
Today, I went over to confront my parents about how my siblings always get to visit and all I do when I’m over is work on their house or take care of grandma. My mom was very upset. Then she snuck out with my sister, leaving me to take care of grandma until she got back. FML
Today, I got a call from my grandmother saying she locked her keys in the car and I needed to bring her the spares. After an hour bus ride, involving me missing my stop and getting temporarily lost, I arrived and handed her the keys. I brought the wrong ones. FML
Today, I enjoyed a lovely family dinner, but my irritating grandma kept trying to buy my purse off me, and kept picking it up to look at it. When I got home I realized all my cash and cigarettes were gone. FML
Today, being the nice grandchild that I am, I went to visit my grandmother. She didn't recognise who I was. I thought she was joking. She later called the police as, "Some weirdo had walked into her house." I'm that weirdo; she wasn't joking. FML
Today, I had a fight with my grandma again with whom I've been living for four years due to college hostel being below par. She blamed me for destroying her kitchen equipment by extensively cooking, especially at night. I've never placed a foot inside her kitchen since the beginning. FML
Today, I found out that my mother changed all the locks of the house and threw away all of my girlfriend's stuff. I don't know what the fuck happened there. I actually bought the house two years ago because I had enought of her being nosey and controlling with both of us. FML

as crazy this sounds be thankful for that. I would give anything to come home to my worried grandma after work any day!

The fact that you miss your loving grandma doesn't mean the OP should be grateful for their grandmother breaking into their home and being controlling about their life. Not all grandmothers are cookie-baking sweethearts.

If she asks if you want something to eat, remain calm, make yourself as big as you can, keep eye contact, and back away slowly... you'll be okay, OP. Lol

Did she bring food?

Why was she wondering? Doesn't she know you work?

Is your grandmother showing signs of dementia? It's possible that's the underlying problem. In any case I agree with "Change the locks" - It's not that terribly expensive to have a locksmith come out and just change the key portion of your locks. Unless you have drinking problem and are prone to frequently losing your keys, you don't need to leave spare keys with people who might misuse that confidence. I am constantly amazed at the foolish people who leave a spare key to their home with others or don't have a lock code on their phone. Those two things cause an awful lot of FML's.

A drinking problem? I leave a spare with my mom for lots of reasons. If I'm ever in an accident she can get my belongings (clean undies at the hospital!). If I'm stuck at work or out of town she can feed my pets. There are more reasons than lost keys.

That's why my mum doesn't have an emergency key, my friend living a few blocks away does. :b

I agree it would be weird to find my grandmother in my living room. She died in 1960...
