<--has zero motivation right now
 
<--was lying in bed one day and DT asked "do they call me DT because I'm shaped like a turnip?"
<--said "you're not shaped like a turnip"
<--says DT said "oh, come on"
<--suddenly realized that the picture of a "turnip" in her head was really a parsnip
<--says Mom uses them all the time in chicken soup, and they look like white carrots, long and thin (like Ame's DH), but Mom never cooked with turnips
<--looked up turnip on the internet and ........:eek: :eek:

<--told him the story (again) about how Melissa called her DH The Big Swede because he's Swedish and Shelley said "Swede" in England is a turnip and Robin said maybe all DHs are turnips.....
<--cannot, however, explain how ONLY <--'s DH wound up being a DT ;)

<---hopes Ame gets a good dinner out of her DH
<---agrees with Nancy that life is too short to do all that unpleasant stuff
<---occasionally gives in and does it anyhow, but not too often
<---tells Cuz that no, a Danish doesn't count as a donut!
<---says donuts have holes in the middle! :p
<---wonders if Cuz survived the reunion
<---wouldn't mind a rainy day like Lorie is having
<---thinks it would justify <---'s laziness today
 
<--- stomps into thread, as mad as she's ever been
<--- 's BIL and SIL were here with their 2 sons, one of whom is autistic (NOT high functioning)
<--- is going to set aside <--- format to tell the story

My BIL's family came into town Wednesday night, spent one night, then left their children in the care of my 79 year old MIL and FIL while they relax at the family lakeside cottage. You may remember that in the past year my MIL had surgery and a heart attack, and my FIL needs assistance to complete activities of daily living -- he can barely walk.

So my DH called his parents this morning and of course, they're having a hard time with the autistic child -- I guess he tried to kick my FIL, and they can't get him to eat, and he's been having tantrums. Now we have to go over there. I don't mind helping out but I wish that my BIL would realize that his elderly parents are not up to caring for a BIG, 11 year old boy with autism. By the way, my IL's agreed to watch the kids even though they really didn't want to -- they just didn't want to disappoint their son. This has happened before and we always have to give up our own plans to bail them out. On a brighter note, at least I don't have to go to that damn class reunion tonight.

x(

<--- ETA that she LOVES Cody's hair!!
<--- is waving at Cuz and wants to know if she punches a hole in the danish will it count as a donut?
<--- thanks Catherine for her support:*
