Then my kids caught it and I was run crazy nursing THEM. But do you think my husband would call his sister and tell her to stay home? Oh, No! She and her husband had planned to siend Christmas with us (they live in Texas) and by gosh, they were coming. Not only that, they alwas bring their mouthy kids with them. They dont get along with my kids, and the fighting and commotion around here would wake the dead. Believe me, if I had invited any of MY relatives here with this place in the mess it was, he'd have called them up and told them to stay home so fast they wouldnt know what hit them. And. oh yes. after his sister and her gang went home (January 4) his mother called and said she was SENDING her widowed sister and a NEIGHBOR of hers to visit us a few days, for as they needed a rest. They came in on a bus that got here at 4 in the morning and theyre still here. Can you beat that? I could go on and on, but whats the use?
