I need a nap, but no time for it, too much to do.
I hear ya Mrs. Mom same issues w/my in-laws...sucks...and they are ****es...it is what it is...I make no apologies for it anymore!I am thinking about the family picturs we're taking Sun with BIL, SIL, their kids and all of us at Sears. MIL made the appointment and is paying. The other day SIL (visiting from San Diego) said "I've decided that we will all wear white tops and khaki pants." :dunce: Huh? No one asked you. I don't have a white top for this............neither do my kids. I said "Yeah.............no." "I already have what we're wearing picked out and I'm not buying new stuff just for a picture." SIL does this stuff all the time and I simply say "No." MIL gets a kick out of it because she drives her crazy but doesn't say anything to her.
SIL is from Mexico, highly is educated (in science)...........has her way of doing everything and her way is better than us dumb Wisconsiners (my words, but her attitude).
She tells me that I should work out, color my graying hair, corrects my kids in front of me, etc. Yeah she's a peach. Tonight at MIL's house I played with her kids, helped MIL with dinner, bringing everything outside (we ate outside), serving peeps (we had several guests), did dishes, etc. What was SIL doing the whole time? Sitting there reading her Kindle. She does this everytime they come. She has me feed her toddlers and give them baths when I'm at MIL's to visit. I gladly do it because I love my niece and nephew but it's the way she just "Rebecca do this and that." Look **** I'm past this stage with my kids........been there, done that!
Wow..........sorry peeps. :ranting:
