I finally changed our doorbell so it didn't sound like then ones on TV.
Confused the hell out of Nasha.

3. We just said goodbye to my Mother in Law, who hasn't been getting
along with me lately. Basically, three hours of her trying to get my son to leave my side and "cuddle with someone who really loves you"...sigh.

5. That sucks.
I can't imagine having in-law friction. My MIL lives 5 hours away and is a nice lady. I've never had a FIL. My BIL lives in Denver and my SIL and her weird hubby are too intimidated by us to even visit. Evenso, they live 6 hours away.

11. My "MIL" was a non-stop talker.
We'd go visit her in lovely Lawrence, MA, and I'd hear her talk about EVERYTHING that happened to her since the last visit - minute by minute, "and then SHE said, . . . and then I said, and then THEY said, and then . . . " Gawd, the woman could talk without breathing.

10. I'm a Unitarian.
We don't really pray. Anyway, do they make a prayer for people like you?

12. Thanks to 'ster, I am hopeless....
The nadir came during the Cuban Missle Crisis when 'ster railed on for days about how we should all be in a state of grace because we were all going to die immediately if not sooner. Then I came home to my mother who was dealing with that event by threatening to drink all the booze in the house... And that would have been quite a task....

I thought Unitarians prayed "To Whom It May Concern"?
