24 Hrs. to go!

MIL flies home tomorrow. The week has gone by very well, thanks to my negotiating skills.

I told her if she promises to stop moving my shit around, I'd let her out of the shed.

If that makes me a softie, so be it.

Well, did you let her out? Did she have your golf clubs in there and surprise you with a swing? Oh oh, you okay?

I'm fine. Thanks for your concern, Dale.

I have, however, lost the following items: a large comb I like to leave in the shower; my can opener; my collection of cheap flip-flops that usually clutter the entrance.

Clearly, I had not chosen the "correct" location to leave these items, and they were moved to a "more appropriate" place... somewhere in my home.

I have managed to locate all the other moved items, and put them back in their proper places (with a few dramatic sighs for effect). I hope to find my flip-flops before the end of summer.

I don't think you're being a softie. Unless of course you've actually been feeding her while she was out there.

I suppose you could roll some cans of ravioli under the door, and say "I'm sorry I don't have anything to open it with... I must have MISPLACED it somewhere."

Or a good swing with a sock full of pennies might do the trick. I can't tell you how much I love it when the people touch my stuff. Sighing is important.
