My leukemia's back.

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"??
So funny! I’m not sure what’s better - the kitten toilet Q-tip retriever, or the Mom & 2 sisters that trained you...

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.

You sound so nice in your posts, and open to giving her a chance if she’ll take it (makes you sound even nicer)! She’s losing out on knowing you. Whoa AND she’s losing out on some amazing cookies! Yeah. Your cookies had me. :wee
One of my sweetest most cherished childhood memories are of making Christmas cut-out cookies with my sweet mom and my big brother/real life hero.
