Last night I stopped at my parent's house. They babysit my great niece, so it's a safer way to see them, her and her mother, my middle niece (she's 26, her sister is 30, and my youngest niece is 18 months old ... ohhhkay, there's that ... one nephew also 18 mths. [twins] ... two great nephews courtesy of the 30 yr. old ... got that all?)

At one point middle niece is trying to tell something she heard on the radio. It was at this point she noticed that neither of my parents were listening to her. Not only that, but they kept starting a conversation with each other, talking over her. I laughed and said "welcome to my world, that was my whole yesterday!" So she told me the story and then my mom started saying "what? what was that?" Middle niece told her she was too late, she'd been rude, and she wasn't going to repeat it. My mother started yelling at her that since she watched her child for free she best repeat the story or find a new baby sitter.

She's nuts.

Later I was playing with my great niece's bubbles and blew some in the living room. You'd think I slaughtered a pig. "Since when do you blow bubbles in my living room????" Bless my niece, she replied before I could by looking at her watch and saying "since about 2 minutes ago Grandma!" (**smart ass-ed-ness runs in the genes)

Psycho! She's freaking out about bubbles staining. THEY ARE SOAP YOU DINGBAT! Made me want to squat down and pinch out a loaf right on the floor. There you go mommy! Now that will stain!

There is crazy in a good way ... and then there is my mother. Dad's not much better. His sister is dying and I said "if you want to go see her before she passes, I'll go with you. If you want to go to the funeral, I'll go with you." His reply? "ehhhhhhh." It's an 8 hour drive. Too much I guess. He's not much on funerals (who is??) In fact it's in his will that he doesn't want one. Don't know if he'll haunt us if we have one, but I sure as hell am not going to risk it.

Tomorrow is Doctor Day. Tomorrow is "UP THE PROZAC DOC" day. Party appropriately if you wish!
