So True
It was sent to me by one of my ever-thoughtful former college roommates. One of the people in my life who's always on top of birthdays and 'just because' occasions, unlike Yours Truly. I'd like to blame my absent-mindedness on my toddler . . . too bad I was this way long before he was conceived. Plus Awesome Former Roommate also has a young child, and -- obviously -- she's not letting that get in her way.
This post must be short, as I am about to fulfill my housewife duty of being the gracious host to my father- and brother-in-law for a week. Which means I've made the guest beds, mopped the kitchen, and will have a homemade peach pie coming out of the oven soon after they arrive. However, in true Toxic Housewife fashion, my graciousness just may end there, as I've left the bathroom-cleaning to Bee . . . whose ideas of cleanliness are a little more blurry than mine.
We're a little tense about this particular visit, too, which means that my already-questionable graciousness may be in very short supply. However, I am planning on painting a smile on my face and taking an internal bet on who breaks down first: Bee or me. *For added fun, I've created a poll. Register your answer on the right!*
And, by the way, I figure I should get brownie points for not attempting to cook dinner for them, as that would probably just drive them away.
Hmmm . . . if things are indeed tense in a few days, perhaps I should whip out a cookbook . . .
