but then I realized that I am overworked, broke, exhausted, already sick of college football bowl games, completely stressed out and pissed off at my mother.

DYK It's not considered bailing for me to take Maegan by the teacher's house to give her the notebook, is it?


dyk I don't think so?


dyk like you said, you're not staying on top of her to finish it, but if she does do it, you can certainly drop it off for her.

DYK It makes a ton, so I just hope I can keep the sampling to a minimum?


DYK I have done so well this holiday season, up until the last 2 days, and my sampling has been a little too much


DYK OK -- way too much BUT -- and this is a pathetic attempt at a self-defense BUT -- so very much better than pre-SB where I would have eaten the stuff constantly all day for the entire season


DYK and this morning I do not feel well, so there's my lesson -- had stomach cramps in the night, and this morning dragging and not feeling great

dyk kids are mean b/c their parents are mean


DYK and a great example of this is high school sporting events


DYK it amazes me how crude and obnoxious other teams' parents are.

dyk I feel the same way. I am making Christmas dinner. No, I don't want you to bring anything but people insist.


DYK I have fought this for years with DH's family -- no I do not want you to bring anything, because you don't show up anyway and we end out without, so I'm making the food


DYK but how do you say that nicely?

dyk while doing it, she criticized my recipe, my technique and (for good measure) my cookware


DYK wow . . . I would be livid, IMO she is way over the top out of line (sorry, please don't be offended)


DYK its one thing to say "this is how I do it" . . . . or "I have a pan that works great for these" . . . . but wow

dyk and I know that she is (understandably) sad that I will not be giving her a grandchild


DYK um, Barlow and Fellini!!!


DYK my parents know that I am providing furry grandchildren, lots and lots with the fosters added in, and they have learned to accept it


DYK I am keeping my eyes peeled for a "my grand child is a German Shepherd" bumper sticker
