I am to tired to post my complaints....

My mom - the 76 year old Bridezilla. My siblings and I have been planning a 50th Anniversary party for what seems like forever and mom is driving us all nuts. The list of "must have's" has been endless.
The icing on the cake was today's mandate. DS (who is only 4, BTW) must wear a gold tie for the party because it's the golden anniversary. Now, there are 19 grandchildren in all and 3 great-grandchildren. I don't know if anybody else got the orders, but now I guess I have to go out searching for a gold tie - with only 3 shopping days left.
I am sooooooooo going to drink my $1500 worth on Friday!!!!!!

Sadly, no time to go to a tailor either! Three stores visited tonight - number of gold, clip-on, 4 year-old appropriate ties - 0.Caradana said:I like you. I was all set to post my complaint and then I read this and I can't stop laughing. A gold tie for a 4 year old ... you might be better off going to the Rag Shop, getting gold lame, and asking a tailor to whip up a tie!!! I will also be drinking my $250 gift and $68 per person train tickets' worth while at a wedding on Friday!!!

Republicans.
I am finished. Thank you.
swea_pea1 said:P.S. IIRC, your wedding's in the winter. You're not going all Bridezilla, are ya? Save it for your 50th...if you ask my mom, it's much more fun driving your kids nuts than your parents.


My neighbors who are SLOBS and that they have only cut their lawn once this year and seem to be letting it die so they never have to cut it again.
Oh, and their kids playing all over my property and lawn cuz their's has soooo much dog s**t on it(and the worst is after I've spent 3 hours-mowing,edging,blowing,watering)-then they play
on it!!!WatchinCaptKangaroo said:I can't understand a word my teacher is saying.
marybet said:We have had the grandkids since June 18. They called their mother last night, she has only called once in reply to my call to see if she had sent grandson's phone charger, (no, she has been to busy), DGD talked for about a minute, DGS about 2 minutes and then their mother had to go because she was "cleaning". DGD was almost in tears and sad all last night. I am still wondering what she was doing that was so important she couldn't talk to her kids for more than 3 minutes![]()
My sister said some woman are mothers, others just have children. The kids are 11 and 12 and my DH and I have just decided to keep them all summer if they want to stay.

Thanks. I've got a wirst rest, but I've not been using it. I'll get it back out.WatchinCaptKangaroo said:Nope. Anyone who does a repetitive motion can get it. You heard about it in older people first becuase they used computers and typewriters a lot more than the younger people.
I recommend this wrist rest and one for your mouse as well.

What a special lady you are!!![]()
We had them last summer for 4 weeks and I worried so when they went home because they left them alone all day, we would have kept them longer but they had to go home to visit her parents. They are being really good this year but I just don't think an 11 and 12 year old should be home alone. Their Dad is starting a new job on a riverboat and will work 20 days and be off 10 days. I just hope it all works out. But unless their mother insists they come home (no date has really be discussed) we will let them stay as long as they want.
