The apple does not fall far from the tree...

I have this website for my ventings on my in-laws, however, I believe that my husband was raised by these crazies and unfortunately has some of their wonderful qualities...

Mother's Day is the responsibility of my husband to organize since both my kids are under the age of 3 and they can't take themselves to the store and buy something for me.  So I asked my husband on Saturday night if he had gotten me anything for Mother's Day...he said no and went on to say he didn't want to spend the extra money since i said I didn't need anything.  FINE, except later that evening he told me that he was leaving to go play poker at a friend's house.  FINE, except that in a night's poker game, he could be spending/losing an easy $100!  NOT FINE...I called him to basically yell and say how rude that was, blah blah blah.  I woke up the next morning to my mother's day cards (which my mom helped my kids fill out) and TWO SCRATCH OFF lottery tickets! 

I kid you not.  UNBELIEVABLE.  Yes, granted they were the $10 ones and yes if I won it would be a different story, hence I didn't win and I just keep scratching my head thinking if there is anything a little more thoughtful you can get at 1am at wawa.

Mother's Day vs Amway!

So, we made arrangements to go out to dinner with my mother in-law for mother's day.  Dinner, cards, present, and quality time with her family...what a nice idea.  They called us this morning to tell us that they had forgotten, but they had made plans to meet with somelady and her sister for dinner and they couldn't break the plans....ok....not happy, but ok...so later we find that it is some lady and meeting for Amway!  They decided to get involved with selling vitamins for Amway!  AKA pyramid scam....

UNBELIEVABLE!  These people have no extra money to pay their bills, yet they are buying inventory of vitamins for a pyramid scam?!  Makes no sense!

So let me get this straight....dinner with my family vs Amway scam???  These are the kind of people we are dealing with. 

I get urges to shut down this site from time to time.  A little guilt mixed with my conscience saying it just isn't right...but then they STRIKE again....

Your Baby Can Read Part II

Love it!  Love it!

About a month ago, we returned the box of DVDs and packages to my in-laws and told them that my friend in California was going to send me her un-used set, so they could return it and save their money.

My nephew's 1st birthday was this past week and the in-laws actually gave him a gift!  (rare, very rare occassion)  They reached in their trunk and took out that same mysterious brown box filled with YOUR BABY CAN READ!!!!!
