Another day --another headache

H was told he can't get a job driving because he has too many points on his license. So I have to listen to that for another decade. Not sure how but apparently it's my fault. Sd decided she's going to collage but doesn't have to take the SATs. HUH Things have changed since I went to school. Any way here is a list of what I've done wrong in the last two days.
Went to Fil's house and cleaned it top to bottom, washed walls, steamed carpets, took him a months worth of meals to put in freezer.
Went to Mil's and did same for her and her husband. This was my Christmas present to them plus a lot of baked goodies and homemade preserves.
Bought everything wrong at grocery store. Lots of fresh fruit and vegetables, lean meat but no pop tarts and sugary cereals and nothing instant.
Refused to write reference letters for sd for school. I won't lie for her.
Sent cards to his family from me and me alone.
Sent his grandmother a fruit basket from me.
Boy do I know how to screw up a weekend or what??

Sorry your H didn't get the job

"To Thine Own Self Be True" William Shakesphere

it would've gotten him out of your home on a regular basis and given you some time alone...

funny how you have a better relationship with his family than he does. That speaks volumes, doesn't it?

That was an awesome present ~

You are a lovely daughter-in-law to do so many nice things for his family. It's great that they appreciate what you do. It's too bad that your H doesn't. Somebody needs to stick a boot up his a#@!

My parents and grandparents

My parents and grandparents are gone so I guess I've gotten attached to his. They're really nice to me. MIL tells everyone that I'm her daughter. We share a lot of the same interests. With Fil it's more a matter of respect. I just wish the sils weren't such brats. But what can you do?? MIL told H that he better watch what he does because she thinks he's screwing everything up. Hope he listens.
