A Looovely Email From Mother Dearest.

[Clara Bow]

My stepmother in law used to send those emails...I told my husband I was going to give her a giant cross so that when she was feeling unappreciated she could nail herself to it...

And here I was hoping that my mother was unique, but it seems she has clones all over the world... serving martyr and cheese with a nice glass of whine

Mother just answered my email.

She was very sugary and sympathetic about my health problems - and then included info on getting my passport. Which I won't need if I'm not going. ::sigh::

She also told me lots of things that she thinks I should tell my doctor about my health, because "a friend's second cousin's neighbors sister had the EXACT SAME THING and she got X treatment, so I should too."

Been there. Tried that. Didn't work worth a darn. But I could say the same thing about talking to Mother. <snicker>

Blue, here's how I talk to my Mom whenever she gets just like that.  I assemble all of my logical, rational and factual points and counterpoints.  Then I go find the nearest brick wall. I speak slowly and clearly to the brick wall, carefully laying out all my arguments.  You make so much more progress that way.

LOL!

Yes, that's one of her favourite recipes. She also likes martyr and cheese. Mmmm, tasty!

My Grandmother loved to serve  "scream of Martyr' soup with her wine and guilt crackers.

Yes, that does sound better. The brick wall wouldn't talk back!!
