lol she wouldnt by any chance be my mother in law would she?
just kidding, i dont think she has anyone on speed dial but she does complain about her neighbours.
one woman built a fire in her fire place one autumn day and MIL made a comment to her about how it messed up her breathing... this poor lady hasnt built a fire since! and MIL cant understand why on earth we have chickens... nasty, smelly creatures. once while going through hard times(we had to move away from a nice big house/yard and didnt know where we were going... looked like it would be to an apartment) and she told me i needed to take my cats to the animal shelter. and two years later, had to move again..... told me i needed to take my two dogs, and three cats to the shelter and just not own animals until we could afford them.....
i WANTED to sic my dogs on her for that!! they were in great condition, well fed, and happy! no WAY was i dumping them in the shelter! same for the cats.
she complains about the dogs that live behind her house when they bark.. complains about the dogs down the street when they bark. complained when a friendly bearded collie wandered up to be patted on the head.. complained about the neighbours cat sitting on her lawn.
best of all.... when i was pregnant she complained and gave dirty looks when i would drink tea and eat seafood lol onions? chili? i had to eat that in secret..... pizza might as well have been poison. and if i so much as sniffed at a soda(root beer is the lesser of the evil sodas-less acid, no caff.) but nooooo .... i could have been drinking antifreeze lol the problem with being pregnant though is.... ya gotta give in to cravings!! and ALL i craved were those horrible poisonous foods....
i feel bad for the father in law because he's a country boy, born and raised in Maryland.... looooves his bacon FRIED, not microwaved.. which is how she cooks it WHEN she cooks it lol
once a month he goes a to car show/club meeting at Whataburger and she glowers at him the whole time he's eating his cheese burger and shake lol
i believe in eating healthy, sure! but come on..... life is never a sure thing and i believe in cheese burgers and shakes on occasion. just not every day..... or even twice a week unless you get the meat from a better source than McDonalds.
There is a man who comes to the Highland Games once a year with his highland cattle.... all organically raised, grass fed etc... from the Running River Ranch... he said when he takes his cattle to market his are the ONLY red carcasses in the cooler. everyone elses cattle have that fine white sheen that is nothing but pure fat.
and .... naturally since i have this wee little farm... i reallyy REALLY want to buy some highland cattle from him lol i just need to buy the 15 acres nextdoor before someone else does!
