We spent 2 days (tue & wed) with my folks and sister for Christmas. Thankfully, today husband and I had a recall notice we had to take care of for our car. So, no family today! However, we got an email today in which I am ready to absolutely scream over! :ybatty:
Every time we get together with my parents my mother tells me about her coworker that supposedly has some sort of IBD and has used a certain remedy that works so well for her. She's so sure that if I try it that my Proctitis will be healed. Usually it includes some rediculous diet changes even though my mother is the worst one when it comes to eating healthy.
My sister is a librarian at a small college in CA. Plus, she has an interest in geneology tracking relatives back to practically when God created Adam and Eve! Unfortunately, she seems to think we need to hear everything that she researches along with any other stuff that isn't necessary for us to hear and never shuts up! Plus, she always tries to top us with whatever we're doing even up to our painting the house and donating stuff to goodwill. She tells us that she's donated even more than we ever have from an apartment.
Every year my mom flies my sister home for Christmas so she can have her family together. The folks admit that they have too much Laura time. But, mom loves to try to guilt trip husband and I into spending every waking moment with them as long as she's here. If it tells you anything. We're so wound up with the thought of spending another weekend with my sister that we're looking to continue our painting early just for an excuse to not get together with them. Plus, I've been flaring and because of all the stress from family it seems to be getting worse. Needless to say, I've been getting good use of my bubble shooter game!!! :ymad:
