My leukemia's back.

[LittleLakePhil]

After consideration, it's not really a bad card. It just struck me wrong, because of the situation. She's not happy her son married me. Everything was fine when he and I were just living together. She was nice as could be to me. When we got married, all that changed. She had planned that her other son would move near her, and take care of her in her old age. He got married, and upset the apple cart. Plan B was that my husband would move up there to take care of her in her old age. When we got married, it ruined all her plans.

Dh talked about us moving up there when he retired. Nope. She would love it if he moved up there, but she didn't want me up there. She's said a few things to try to break us up. A couple times, she's flat out told him she wanted him to come up there for a visit, but not to bring me. She does that to her other son too. Tells him not to bring his wife. When she does that, her other son won't go see her, or he takes his wife anyway. She was so afraid we might move up there when Dh retires, she sold her place to move into a retirement community. She put a single bed in the guest bedroom, so her son could go visit, and stay with her, but not with their wife. Recently, her other son, and his wife moved down here to Florida. Both sons have tried to get her to come down for a visit. She won't even consider it. Nope, they have to go to her. They've both assured her that a mother-in-law cottage was totally possible, or adding on a room for her was an option too. Nope. Not as long as they're married. Now, if either of them want to get divorced, she might consider moving in with them.

That's why the theme of the card rubbed me the wrong way.

I just thought it was funny cuz my wife is always on me about leaving the seat up....

I don't care so much if it's up or down but, wish gentlemen would use both hands to steer or else clean up after themselves.

I was getting so mad about my husbands aim, the seat always seemed to be dripped on - turned out the dog was drinking out of the toilet... and I found my cat was playing in the water... I mean what cat plays in the toilet water ?!? I think it started when he was a kitten and loved to watch the water swirl after we flushed.
We both close the lid so the dogs don't drink out of it.

Still in a distant time zone even though you are home Sour?

More true than you might imagine.

Two hands ? What sort of guys do you know ?

Okay, so it's mainly my brother. Other men don't hang around long here.

Maybe lock the lid too!

Poor DH and his aim being questioned....

Please understand that I've never done cookie cutter type cookies before. I've never made my own flow icing before, either. I got the outline icing just fine, but had to thin the flow icing, then re-bag it. When I took the class, I was told she never uses smaller than a #3 tip, but next time, I'll use smaller tips for the detail work. I'll do it all over again in a couple days. I will learn this, and learn it well. Someone told me to use food color markers to put the lines on the cookies, so they're straight, then put the icing over the marker line. Same thing with a good circle.View attachment 1704516

I have several more to do, but I'm tired, so I put it all away, and will finish up tomorrow.

Those are THE CUTEST!!!!

I had a cat that did. It was originally my sister's cat. BIL would toss Q tips in the trash and the kitten would chase after them, fish them out and play with them. So he started throwing them in the toilet. Yep kitten went after them there as well. I got her at 2 years old when they moved to Hawaii for 2 years of shore duty (USN) and they didn't want the poor cat in a quarantine cage for months. Lucky for me, I lived with Mom & 2 sisters and was trained to lift the seat AND put it back down.

Someone um, er, well more than "average"??

Sour since you feel "out of sorts" in a way I sometimes liked to here this song when I feel that way. A love song of course, but it is one that is from a person someone out of sorts. I liked Glen's earlier version, but I think you hear his health deterioration in this version some before his death.
