Well, this will be the last time for a few day that I can sit down and read the posts from my favorite people. My in-laws are in town. And my computer room had been turned into a quest room.

So I will have to wait for them to go somewhere and then sneak in here real quick.

I love my father in-law. WWII vet. Great to talk with. Interested in everything.

My mother in-law is another story. She thinks everyone in the world should be Catholic. Even cats, she chases mine around the house throwing holy water on them. Dead serious.

She got pissed once because my wife made this great birthday cake for my son, with a really nice rainbow on it. Some where along the line it seems rainbows have become satanic. She wanted my wife to scrape it off. I lost it that time.

If she knew I posted on this board I would have to spend the weekend in prayer with her. I'm just a nasty ol' southern boy who leans towards Pantheism. Her daughter is a Damned Yankee Catholic.

Pray for me this weekend! :p
 
Bless you my son, say 20 Hail Marys for penance and all will be forgiven. Cya when we see ya back. Your cat all better now?:D

He is getting there. He has never been so affectionate in his life. It is like he is trying to tell me he is sorry for whatever he did, so please don't do that again. He is sitting next to me right now. Won't let me out of his site.

Thanks for asking.
 
It does seem that cats are drawn to this site as well!


Hang in there, school teacher. You could refill her Holy Water with Vodka and tell her you need a complete and internal cleansing of sin. Drink the stuff and you will be her blessed and most wonderful son in law for life!

And the edge will be taken off :D
 
Peace be with you..............................................:)

:eek:

I have to ask WHY does she do this? I'm not Catholic but I can't imagine what holy water on a cat is supposed to do exactly.

I am Catholic and I have no idea why she'd throw Holy water on a cat! My MIL is Southern Baptist (not disrespecting the religon here) and she tells me I'm going to hell every time I see her. Umm, last I checked, rainbows were ok.:D Good for you on sticking to your guns with the little guys cake. My MIL would be lucky if I didn't punch her in the mouth for a comment like that.
 
oh yuck big time ... mother-in-laws .... been there .... done that SchoolTeach ...

be brave, dear .... be very very brave ... and i will pray for you and throw holy water on my cat in your honour ...

Just when I thought I finally learned my lesson well,
There was more to this than meets the eye.
And for all the things you taught me, only time will tell,
If I'll be able to survive. Oh yeah.

Teacher, teacher, can you teach me?
Can you tell me all I need to know?
Teacher, teacher, can you reach me?
Or will I fall when you let me go? Oh no.

Am I ready for the real world, will I pass the test?
You know it's a jungle out there.
Ain't nothin' gonna stop me, I won't be second best,
But the joke's on those who believe the system's fair, oh yeah.

Teacher, teacher, can you teach me?
Can you tell me if I'm right or wrong?
Teacher, teacher, can you reach me?
I wanna know what's goin' on, Oh yeah.

So the years go on and on, but nothing's lost or won.
And what you learned is soon forgotten.
They take the best years of your life,
Try to tell you wrong from right,
But you walk away with nothing. Oh Oh.

Teacher, teacher, can you teach me?
Can you tell me all I need to know?
Teacher, teacher, can you reach me?
Or will I fall when you let me go?

Teacher, teacher, can you teach me?
Can you tell me if I'm right or wrong?
Teacher, teacher, can you reach me?
I wanna know what's goin' on, Oh

Teacher, teacher, can you teach me?

I feel your pain. I returned on Tuesday night after a 4 day in-law extravaganza in Jersey. We're still glad we moved. I think it's better to be the one visited- so you maintain some semblance of control. We were at the mercy of his mother. Sheesh! I'm nice but a woman can only take so much.
Good luck! :)
 
oooooh geez .... i should have thought of this song first ...

i think these lyrics might be better for ya today, SchoolTeach dear ... la la la ...

The worst person I know
Mother-in-Law Mother-in-Law
She worries me so
Mother-in-Law Mother-in-Law

If she leaves us alone we would have a happy home
Sent from down below
Mother-in-Law Mother-in-Law
Mother-in-Law Mother-in-Law

I come home with my pay
Mother-in-Law Mother-in-Law
She asks me what I make
Mother-in-Law Mother-in-Law

She thinks her advice is a contribution but
if she will leave that will be the solution
and don't come back no more
Mother-in-Law Mother-in-Law

Sin should be her name
Mother-in-Law, Mother-in-Law
To me they are about the same
Mother-in-Law, Mother-in-Law

Every time i open my mouth
then she tries to put me out
How could she stoop so low

My Mother-in-Law, Mother-in-Law.....

In quick for a sneek peek

Therrrrreeeee Heeeerrrreee!

Now, why didn't someone, like my dear ol' wonderful wife, remind me that today is my dear ol' mother in-law's birthday. SHIT.

As for her chasing the cats with holy water. I don't ask anymore. I just keep my mouth shut and move on.

At least everyone is out of the house for a few minuets and I can check in here.

I plan on having quite a bit of vodka tonight. Thank god I won't be able to get on here and make an ass out of myself telling everyone how wonderful they are and stuff. I be so embarrassed if I told Isabella Thorne, MissTaken, raindancer, or Blushing Rose, and Elizabeth, and Cheyenne, how damn wonderful they are and how much I admire them and and and

I can't wait to have some oh dat vodka.

Love ya all.

Oh oh, I think you already started that vodka! :)

Today is my cat's birthday, too. Yes, my family tracks such dates and the animals get cards, just as if they were kids. My mom calls them her "grandcats" since she gave up on having any grandkids from me years ago.

But, now you have me curious and I really really want to know what the holy water on the cats is supposed to do! Maybe you could ask your mother-in-law to remind you one more time?
