OK, it was only a question. Now it's answered in spades. We all lack manners at times and don't have a great deal of chances to use them in our rushed daily lives. I do try though and this thread should help all of us to remember to be kind to others. (())

Perfectly put, now let's move on to another topic before there are any more rude responses to a simple question asked.

It appears you don't like your mil very much so it probably doesn't matter what she does, it would annoy you too. It doesn't matter what the correct answer is anyway, you are not going to change her and it would be disrespectful to make an issue of something so small. jmho. I have a sil that annoys me like that, all she has to do is breathe, lol.

I'm sorry, I didn't realize we had lost our freedom of speech yet. Last I checked I didn't need your approval to make a comment.
