Dear step-son's future MIL - Don't say you're totally free to meet to begin making plans for the wedding, then come back at every date suggestion saying that you've got something going on that night. For the love of Cheese-its, just PICK a freaking date then! One that works for you! I'm tired of suggesting dates! I've suggested five dates so far and you "Ms. Flexible and Wide Open" can't make ANY of them.
Is this what it's going to be like planning this wedding? Can't wait. *sarcasm*
Sincerely,
Mother of Groom - and already tired of shutting up and wearing beige | |

Dear idiots who are not computer literate,
Quit going off on all your "friends" on facebook for posting this and that on your wall.
First, they are not posting on YOUR wall, they are posting on their wall. YOU cannot operate your newsfeed settings so you see every.single.thing. on their wall. It is not their fault. It is YOUR fault.
You looked like a fool when you went off on them the other day. Did you know everyone was laughing at YOU?!
Take an hour and learn how to set your controls. |

It's not going to be any easier to juggle next week when the kids are back in school. Plus, I don't think you realize how antsy a pile of dirty clothes in the hamper makes me. | |

I need my children to either be willing to help around the house or go back to school. This sitting around the house all day making messes and then whining, complaining, and back talking when I ask for help needs to stop NOW.  |

Not so DH - you were off for 13 days and did NOTHING. You were supposed to get started on finding DD a car. You did nothing. There's the hole in the living room ceiling that's been there for FIVE YEARS and you did nothing. I thought the battery in my van needed to be changed and I asked you to look at it/ get it fixed while I was at work and you did nothing. So of course my van wouldn't start on Wed. And then our second vehicle wouldn't start later the same day.
You did not fix your gaming computer, do a load of laundry, grocery shop, but you were able to go over to your mom's condo and fix her minor stuff even though she's away in FL for 3 MONTHS.
Oh, yeah he dented my van because he just had to back into the driveway for some inexplicable reason. |

Wait your m&($ f&&;$$@ turn! You were told your Meds would be ready at 5. It's 4:20, so get out of my dang face. Get a tissue, because your snot sounds make me want to vomit. I know it's "just a cough syrup". Yes like the 473 people ahead of you. Continuing to interrupt my techs to check on your Rx wastes time and increases delays. Oh, and you brought in one paper script, but the dr sent 3 more over for you, so hold your horses.

PSA: The fast lane is for people who want to drive FAST! Move over!
I use to agree with this but the speed limit is the speed limit, no matter what lane you are in. I recently got at $400 speeding ticket because I was going 78 in the "fast lane" (of an 8 lane hwy)- the speed limit was 70. The officer said "just because you are in the so-called fast-lane, doesn't mean you can speed"

You don't even realize how stupid you look when you post on Facebook and butcher the "King's English". Take some pride and look some of this stuff up before you show your ignorance:
If you "won't" do something it is "won't" not want.
A possessive has an apostrophe, it is not susans graduation, it is Susan's graduation (also, nouns begin with a capital letter),
Also, a certificate saying that you completed a particular technical program is NOT A DEGREE...for crying out loud!!!!! Your kid went six weeks to learn how to take someone temperature and bloodpressure, serve food and change sheets (nothing wrong with that) BUT it is not a freaking college degree...of course you probably don't know any better....... | |

Well, I found the OSP that was out and about on Wednesday. Stopped me for driving with my fog lights on. In the fog I guess there's a new law in Oregon that you have to treat your fog lights as high beams. Even though they point to the ground. And even when there's fog
And to my children, please brush your teeth when I tell you. I monitored this closely when you were young and kind of thought you had the hang of it. $3000 in root canals and cavities says I'm still going to have to hold your hand at 15 while you brush! Nice bill right after Christmas... | |

You can look down your nose at me all you want to but you would be shocked and embarrassed by what I know about you. I just don't use the info to look down on you. That doesn't serve any purpose for me. When I walk out during the gossiping it's not because I'm antisocial. I just don't want to participate. I have been on the receiving end of it and it doesn't feel great. I have enough jobs to do without trying to do God's. I'll try my best to leave the judging to Him. |

Dear Grandchild, I know you are not yet 2, can't read, and just starting to speak. I do know that you know the words "stop," "no" and "come here."
There are things in this house that you can hurt, or that can hurt you. There are also three dogs that this is their home too. Just as they can hurt you, you can hurt them.
We have made the family room as toddler friendly as possible, and will continue to do more to keep you safe, and our possessions (like the TV and cable box) from being damaged. You have two bins of toys to play with, you do not need the dogs' toys too!
When your mommy, grand-daddy or I tell you "stop" or "no" or "come here;" it is not 'go on and continue doing what you are doing.' And it is not worth pitching a hissy fit, tantrum or a full melt down, to be told "no."
Love, Oma
Please note, I do love DGD, and know it will get worse, before it gets better. We have the toilet latches, and the cabinet locks. But I still don't think we're ready.

Dear irresponsible dog owner. I found your long neglected elderly dog walking down the street today. When I got out of the car to shoo him off the road, he came to me and layed down at my feet. Even tho I was rushing my mom to the dr because I thought she had a blood clot in her leg, I picked that poor little dog up and put him in the car seat next to me.. He literally melted next to me. I dropped mom off at her dr office and took him to my kind vet who agreed to check him out & board him for the day. I went back to take care of mom while trying to figure out what to do about your dog even tho I have 3 dogs of my own. Fortunately, my vet said he had not been injured, just neglected. So I had to make the decision to send him to the local shelter even tho I knew he needed a warm lap to sit in for the last days of his life. I hope when you are old, you are cold, hungry and confused like he was today. Wish I could have taken him home...but I had to chose my head over my heart. Damn you! | |

Dear family, I'm sure you are aware that our cleaning lady has not been here since July. She had breast cancer so a mastectomy and two reconstructive surgeries. But I pay her anyway because it's the right thing to do. Which means no money to pay someone else to do it.
I don't ask you to do much around here, but PLEASE, pretty please pick up your own crap. Dishes get rinsed and put in the dishwasher. If the dishwasher is full, run it. If its clean, unload it. If you spill something, sweep it up. When you take a bath/shower, take your dirty clothes to your hamper and don't leave them on the bathroom floor. And for the love of God, PLEASE stop taking off your socks all ovem the house and just leaving them where you drop them on the floor.  |

Dear 11 year old boy
What the heck did you expect? You didn't attend gymnastics training for a week and a half while you visited your father. The coaches knew everyone was going to be tight due to missed trainings around the holidays. That's why you had to do about a million toe rises in two days. Yes, I think you are going through a growth spurt, but your calf muscles are tight because they haven't been used. Hot bath, Tylenol, stretch. That's all I can recommend.
Yelling at us, walking like a zombie leper and not going to training this morning will NOT fix your problem. I'm sorry if my additional suggestions of walk normal and talk to your coach aren't good enough for you. But I'm about ready to strangle you and you've only been up for 15 minutes. If your coaches don't string you up by noon, I will call today a major win. Get over it, cuz you have a competition next week.

Most of all Flu, I would like to sleep for 8 straight hours because there is usually nothing on TV at 2am and I have watched all my DVRed shows eleventy billion times because of you.
Again, please leave and take the dang cold feet with you too!
Edgy: I couldn't have said it better! Even with ambien, I'm up all nite, every hour. Can't get comfortable. My bones even hurt. This flubug is BAD. Hope you didn't get the part 2-----the stomach part. It's just so bad. My goal for the day is to be able to do 1 load of laundry and just keep things a little clean! Hope you feel better. |

Dear nieces(they are older teens) & sis--I'm crossing you all off my gift giving list. This is the 2nd year in a row that none of you have so much as acknowledged getting gifts from me. Let alone say 'thank you'. Last year I actually called one of you about a month after your birthday to find out if you opened gift, only to be told, 'Oh yeah, thanks'. So far, not a word from any of you after Christmas, even though my sis took the gifts home with her to give you, so I know you got them. No card,no call, no text--so, from now on it'll be no gift. |

Dear Ex -
I'm sorry the logistics of simply getting through the day whip your ass. Incompetency is your middle name. But please don't call me to walk you through all the little stuff about taking care of a house. You wanted that monstrosity... you got it. Now you have to deal with it. It's not my job to raise you anymore. |

Thanks! Luckily, I've avoided the "stomach" flu because I use my version of the BRAT diet, mainly hot tea, some kinda risotto rice dish (because it is creamy) and juice.
And as horrible as it sounds I'm starving for Taco Bell (my favorite "junk" food meal) but I know that will bring on "Part 2", so I'm avoiding it.
Take it easy and I hope you get to feeling better too! |

DEAR Rheumatoid Athritis:
I would really appreciate it if you stopped being so active--at least for a little while. Give me a small break. You've announced your presence for 3 weeks now. I get it.
And.....Flareup journal--WTF are you?
That is all. | |

I don't ask you to do much around here, but PLEASE, pretty please pick up your own crap. Dishes get rinsed and put in the dishwasher. If the dishwasher is full, run it. If its clean, unload it. If you spill something, sweep it up. When you take a bath/shower, take your dirty clothes to your hamper and don't leave them on the bathroom floor. And for the love of God, PLEASE stop taking off your socks all ovem the house and just leaving them where you drop them on the floor.
I am soooo sorry that you somehow have MY kids at YOUR house!!!! Lol. You have described my situation. | |
