What did you learn today? Part II

Kristina. That's so terrible. I know you have a good sports at keeping your chin up and do your best. MIL should have seen others who treat MIL bad not her. She took too many good grateful. Only time will tell that your life s going to get better evenutally. Not now. Hang in there
 
But this stuff is different. When I think of 'hot sauce' I am thinking of like Tabasco, Picante, etc. This is a hotter hot and a different kind of hot. It's Asian in origin, although it's made in California.
Is it Tuong ot Sriragha?
I I have in my fridge and I love using it in my scrambled egg and my V8.
 
I learned (and it's really pissing me off big time) that MIL had me clean the house yesterday and do all of it in one day by saying that she had company from the Bahamas coming for a visit today. Well, it wasn't true. She just felt that I wasn't cleaning good enough. I left church this morning without participating in the chat time and socializing afterwards since I thought we were still having company. Get home, park in the other driveway to be courteous to the guests. After I get in the house, she thanks me for cleaning, but she's not expecting anyone. She just wanted a clean house. I still can't walk after all I did yesterday and she just snickers and giggles. I so wanted to backhand her. :mad:
Damn, i would be very pissed off if someone did that to me. I would bawl her out if she pulled that on me.
 
Kristina, that's a horrible way to treat you after you've done so much for her. I'd let her know how unacceptable that behavior is, that if it continues, you'll leave. That'll take the wind out of her sails.

Excellent advice!
 
When I lived in Nashville, I went to a store all the time that had nothing but different Hot Sauces from all over the world there. I got some really interesting stuff there.

I would love that store!
 
Man I so feel you. I'm wondering could my dad and your MIL be related? :hmm: :lol:

My dad has done similar stuff in the past, and worse. I remember when I was 5 my room wasn't clean up to his high standards so he rounded up all of my toys into the back of his truck and took them to the dump, and he made me watch my toys go through the trash compactor. I was in tears.

After that I was afraid to even leave one toy out, when he walked into the room I would haphazardly shove everything into my toy bin and shut the lid. I think that's about the time I got into books, I learned he wouldn't throw out books.

I'm soooo hoping I get this apartment soon, and I'm hoping you get your own place again soon. It's just not easy being an adult child with a family of your own living with your parents.

Your dad was/is a sadistic SOB, and that's all there is to it. I will be SO, so glad for you when you get into your own place.
 
She is the MIL from H3ll, but I still have to live with her for now and she is the one helping us to convert the garage. I think her biggest thing this week that made her so snippy about the house, she's sick again and now has an upper respiratory infection. She never went to the doctor for what she thought was a head cold, and now it's settled in her chest. She was sounding good for about 2 days, then this came about. She can't handle the cleaning herself anymore. She will pick up after herself up to a point. If it lands on the floor, she can't bend over to pick it up. She has a grabber, but won't use it. In the kitchen, she never wipes up after herself on the counters or the stove top, then she claims that either my mother or I did not clean it properly. Hubby has spilled something in the fridge and so I cleaned it up and when I get to cleaning the d=fridge, just a wipe-down will not do. I have to do the whole thing. Then she had the audacity to complain that I used the wrong cleaner and I was to use this stuff from Stanley Home Product that Fuller Brush now sells. I told her, I use vinegar and hot water due to my allergies. She was not happy and I told her to do it herself and she huffed and went into the other room saying that it was all right. She just likes to complain and have her way. I am one of the few people that can stand up to her, but it is so tiring.

Point her in the direction of the flylady.com website. She recommends vinegar and water and baking soda to clean just about everything.

That's how I clean my sink every day: sprinkle with baking soda, pour on a little white vinegar, watch the volcanoes erupt, wipe down. Finished, and it's beautiful!

Baking soda and white vinegar are my go-to cleaning supplies for probably 90% of how I clean. Exceptions are toilet-bowl cleaner and dish-washing soap, that's about it for other chemicals.
 
I learned this over the weekend.........

For these who thinks Dallas women are hot.... They're not really.

Sure, they might dress theirselves up in expensive clothes and a pound or two of make up but they don't even faze me the way boulder girls do.

what do the boulder girls dress up?

Everything causal mostly. It's the attitude they carry that makes them even hotter.

If you find a woman who is dressed up for a party in NYC in boulder... you immediately know they're tourists.

Plus put the "most fittest city" into consideration and you know you got a lot of fit women here.
