Carolyn, my husband and I are equally yoked in that we had mothers from, well, shall I say the nether regions? No embarrassment, just relief when we didn't have to deal with them any longer. Mutual embarrassment can lead to mutual understanding and sympathy!
jane... its the truth... this is what my son asked me earlier today... we were rolling our eyes, I was shaking my head and totally flabbergasted that this person thought someone else was responsible for an action that they themselves did, in my family...when he stated this. I just burst out laughing.
Since I have no idea what the gist of this is about,,I am assuming that a big family Thanksgiving is out of the question ?
no Mart it isn't. some (the victims) are choosing to not come... and the others who don't think their actions were as bad as they were... well thankfully it gets dark early and they don't like to be out after dark. so, it should be a short meal. Clearly we are all dysfunctional in our own very special way... every one of us everywhere.
