My DH is busting his ass to deal with batcrazyness, and what does he get for Christmas? Underwear and shave gel. Me, the one who doesn't do a THING for the nutcase, what do I get? Kate Spade. A credit card wallet, a clutch, and a (get this) diaper bag. Wonder how much I'll get for those bad boys? Probably a hella lot more than DH would get for his panties and shave cream.Kristin (kekis)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14063547563759813530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8937223408953728341.post-41177589456011268412008-12-28T13:52:00.000-05:002008-12-28T13:52:00.000-05:00Last Christmas SIL sent a large box full of presen...Last Christmas SIL sent a large box full of presents addressed to 'Uncle Jekyll', one church fair purchased tea towel for me, and a letter addressed solely to me stating that I'd better remember to send a Thank You note.<BR/><BR/>My IL's were heinous.

In fact, I think they like me even more than dh sometimes. I know dh's dad does. <BR/><BR/>That's awful re: MIL. Awful. Dh should say something. I know you've written the whole IL thing off. It's just the principal of it all. And the very obvious passive aggressive message it sends. <BR/><BR/>And those freakin' jammies.
