    ok well send your mother in law the good one!!!

    Just so you know this year my Mother in law ..

    ... well we my fabulous husband and I were out shopping and he said oo this bathrob would be GREAT for my mom.. I looked at the price and said to myself 20.00 perfect. He went around the corner and found pjs 17.88.. He said what do you think of these .. I once again looked at the price and said oo even better. I am sure those will be perfect.

    Let me describe them.... they are the pj's that give you SEVERE static. My mom is still laughing saying she will look like madoosa with lightening bolts shooting out of her head. I put on my biggest dirtiest grin. And said .. O well it is the thought that counts!

    When will they just give up and get over the fact that we are not getting divorced in this life time! They are just stuck with MEEEEE!

    Oh, that's funny! And if she complains, just give her over to hubby. He's the one that picked them out! lmao

    I know it's better to give than recieve, but come on....how many times do WE have to give before WE recieve?
    I'll send a nice one to his mom. Won't make it a holiday one, that way, she can wear it all year long and brag on me. :) She does that and don't you know, I LOVE IT! lol
    The rest of them can just "whistle Dixie" and be happy that they at least get a card.
    I don't like to stress over them, just gives me a headache and then I can't sew! Not a good thing.

    So, now that I posted directions....all of you who wanted me to make one for you, you can now make one for yourself! :) :)

    I thought about picking some of those up for the aprons, but I already found a cute embroidery pattern. If I were smart,,,,I'd use the ones from KMart lol

    Yes, make your mom one. She'll love it!! They only take about an hour to make

    In your shoes, I'd want Hubby to explain why he lets people who make you feel badly make him feel guilty? :?

    AND if he's going to insist on putting their selfishness above your feelings, why doesn't he take sole responsibility for the shopping or the making AND the sending?

    on the other hand ....

    you could just send them a box of recycled bags from the grocery store. they certainly couldn't complain you didn't send anything useful. :lol:
