You are so RIGHT!!! OMG, I had to laugh to myself because he's just not smart enough to really pull it off. The "smart" thing would have been to put everything into a bag and take it somewhere...but no, that's too much work right? AND put the freaking table back exactly where it was! In my day, I marked that shit with tape...there's no way I was gonna get caught up on something that simple. Maybe his mind is not as devious as mine was though. LOL

You got that right Mama. My daughter could probably ALMOST pull it off...if she was inclined to do so, which thankfully, she isn't.

So last night when I went to the liquor store to get cigs, my daughter said "You're not going to drink right?"...and I kinda got mad and said "You know what, even if I decided to it would be MY business, not yours!!!".... I feel bad about that, but I was dealing with just discovering the "party", and the 3 hour road trip with the folks...I was being bitchy!

what you said to your daughter is correct, but I completely understand where you are coming from
I still expect a full-blown parade and a new car and a trip to Europe every day that I am sober and my family looks at me like I am nuts.....
Hubs said, "Why should you be praised for normal behavior" and that rang a bell for me....

That's like a man wanting a cookie and a ribbon for taking out the trash....for him it's a big deal, for us it's an everyday chore.

:H:H My husband "reports" to me all that he has done. And he's not lazy, but he has to come and tell me where I just do stuff and move on.

Fly - Do you give him a cookie and a pat on the head? I think that's what he's expecting. LOL

:H:H:H I was thinking about the full-blown parade that Mama mentioned, but the cookie/pat sounds much easier. I think I'll start with that!

LOL....oy, MEN!

I don't mean to monopolize Mama's thread here, but I don't really feel like posting this on the Nest thread. I stopped taking my Antabuse last thursday because of my stomach issues, I'm at the point where I need to eliminate as much as I can...including the vitamins I was taking. I only take my Prozac right now, and I know I can't just quit that. I guess it's time to get to the Dr. for some in-depth tests. Being off of AB sorta scares me....

I'm scared for you K9. Are you having drinking thoughts? Definitely go to the doctor. It could be something somewhat simple like H. Pylori like I had. You've come too far to go back to drinking now.

Mama....I am sooooooo there....get my desk ready! Ha! I even have property in Florida too...it's in a equestrian community in Crystal River. It's beautiful there but I have both pieces up for sale....it's just too close to the in-laws for me. Even if I decided to keep one I think it may be a hell of a commute to Jacksonville though! Ha!
