Things that make you stabby
This morning, I saw a bumper sticker on a car that said "Pro-Choice Christians give Christ a bad name" This pro-choice Christian wanted to hit her car. 
What has made you feel stabby lately?

Re: Things that make you stabby
My FIL telling us he'd come to our house 3x last week to water the garden. I believe he came over (brought in mail and garbage cans) but the watering of the garden had to be no more than a 30 second spray. ALL of the plants in my front patch are completely dead, brown and dried up.
I would be more than happy to pay someone to come over and take care of our home, so don't tell me you're happy to do it and then half @ss it and destroy my plants ya a-hole.
Also, Belle has a sore in her arm pit that was dirty and bloody and Pumpkin didn't eat for the entire 9 days she was there... way to take care of my girls... we will be using dog sitters in the future for anything more than an overnight.
Seriously... Sunday night I was in tears over Belle.
The most bizarre thing is they WANT to watch the dogs and would be offended if we hired someone, I'm sure. They say they love having them there. Our dog philosophy is completely different, they let them stay outside all day long and bark all day long, which isn't okay with me. We don't let the dogs bark just to bark, and they don't need to be outside all day getting into crap.
My FIL was all excited to "babysit" all week. I'm sorry but if you watch my child and she comes back with a rashy red stomach and a dirt crusted sore, I'm going to flip my shiz! They will most definitely NOT be watching Vdub at their house in the future. JJ is completely okay with that, too. He was pretty unpleasantly surprised at the condition in which the girls were returned.
They left them outside while they weren't there??
How are the girls doing now?
They have a doggie door to their back patio to outside, so they just let them stay outside or go on the patio all day, then put them in the crates at night. I've asked them to put them in their houses during the day at some point so they can nap and get out of the heat, but I don't know if they do or not. They let them run around in wooded areas though, and who knows what kind of plants are back there that the littles get in, ya know?
They're all good. I gave them all baths when they got home and they slept for like, a day straight. Belle's arm looks fine, it's healing and she's not bothered by it. Pumpkin started eating again. They've spent lots of time snuggled up in our bed
Aren't you glad you decided against using FIL as Vdub's daycare?!
Seriously, they were shocked on Sunday when we told them we put down a deposit at a daycare. I think they assumed we wouldn't find another place, and I think MIL was thinking about not going back to work this fall so she could watch her.
