  • Oh dear lord!!! WOW!! Um see the problem with this is one you have to keep it for a little bit and have it somewhere where she can see it I am sure. The other problem is that other people told her oh that is adorable love it and that kinda thing. Or even gee wish I had one being kind to her so she thinks other people like it to so she is gonna love it! You realize you are gonna get things that are like this in the future ugh!!!  
  • I think that there is a picture of me opening it, actually. I'll have to hunt it up. :)

    MIL was going on and on about how God told her to go to her fabric stash, and God made the blue match the blue of our colors perfectly (it's far from a perfect match, BTW), and God gave her the idea to make this for me to put my knitting in, etc., etc. Now, I am a devout, born-again, evangelical Christian who attends church each and every Sunday and reads the Bible each and every day, but she has totally bounced across the border into crazy-land.

    I would have just tossed the wretched thing, but Matt said something about it being "really sweet of her" to make that for me. He knows that I can't stand her and he actually doesn't have a problem with that. I do need to make a few concessions now and then, though, because she IS his mom and he does love her. Thus the "compromise" of keeping it. The blue sides are really not so bad, when that's all you see. Devil

  • I'm speechless.....I can't say that I would have kept it out like you did (even if its under clothes). It would be nestled in my attic right now.
  • hahaha that is awesome. Holy poop. Pam is right though, you're gonna be getting more crap like that until she dies!! Hahaha.
