What a cute story - put the O key back on and he'll never know it was missing. AS they say, no good deed goes unpunished. After my FIL passed away, DH's mother came to visit - for 6 weeks, 4 if you count the two she spent with DH's aunt and uncle. She started to clean my house the day after she got there - now mind you I'm not a fan of housework, but I always, always clean when someone is coming. I held up well for 2 weeks of her criticizing me for what I wasn't doing right, I wasn't a good mother, wife, housekeeper, etc. I finally told her that housekeeping was not in my contract and she didn't know what to say. I did tell her I would admit to not being a great housekeeper, but I was a great mom and wife. In-laws!! I'm so glad that my son's in-laws are such great people, so he won't have to go through that. I agree though that it doesn't pay to do housekeeping, but I applaud your efforts.
