Mom1111 is here!

#1 Post by christie1111 » Wed Jun 18, 2008 6:53 am

Well, almost.

So, how did I and Husband1111 not realize that she was arriving today not tomorrow?

We had plans for Husband and Daughter1111 to leave around 5 tomorrow am to go to Newark to get her.

Phone rings at 7:40 THIS am. "I'm here!"

AACCKKK! :oops:

So sorry she has to wait at Newark until they can get to her.

I hope this is not indicative of how well this whole thing is going to go.

Or maybe it is like a bad dress rehearsal and this is our one only F-up.

Let's go wth the later, shall we?

So how long does it take to get for Placentia to Newark?
Suitguy is not bitter.

feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive

The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

Luckily for me, Mom1111 is the Anti-PSM-Mom.

She does her own laundry at my house and makes sure she includes any others that might be helpful.

Did I mention she is a French Chef?

But she usually lets me cook for her when she is here cuz she is on vacation.

My daughter never would let me sit at an airport for hours and hours. She would inform me before hand that I would need a rental car. Heaven forbid she should have to stop trying to teach manners to those two brats of hers to do one nice thing for her mother. And Christie, please remember that where a person chooses to do her laundry is her choice. If she wants to stay out of the way, like she has been told so many times, just let her sit on the porch and clean her clothes by banging them between two rocks. Lord knows I don't want to be a burden.
There is no burden too great for a mother to bear.

Your daughter would never point out when you've made some spelling errors, to save you from embarrassment in front of total strangers, either, would she?

Just one more teensy little error, PSM's Mom.

Hardly even noticeable!

You know, a good friend of my daughter wouldn't bring public attention to a little typo or two in front of the whole world. Never mind me, I have to grind this wheat into flour for PSM's family's bread. You know, she never buys the good stuff.

I am sure she did.

But I would guess it is clean.

Is she looking to adopt?

And when Husband1111 explains tha his MIL is a French Chef who lives in Hawaii and has a spare room, there is a general sense of envy from others.
