If not, ignore me. But if so....

Dear FIL

Thank you for gladly taking $320 from us to stay at what used to be your home and take care of what used to be your dogs so we could enjoy our first family vacation. Except that you went to your new home 4 of the 7 days, leaving the 3 dogs home alone for the majority of those days. And you "had" to leave about the time we were leaving the beach, so the dogs were alone again for several hours. And you pissed away the money we gave you and had to hit us up for gas money on the credit card H put you on. So nevermind. No thank you. In fact, go fuck yourself, and your grandson has enjoyed seeing you for an hour out of this month. Smh.

Eta - and also good job trying to guilt trip us because you were sick because you're too god damn stupid to read labels and/or determine if food/milk is spoiled before you inhale it. No we weren't setting traps for you. We're busy, and you're an idiot.

    Dear landlord

    So sorry but I'm about to burn the house down and run away. I can't get or keep it clean mostly because I suck, but also I think there is a dust monster living here. Also, everything smells bad and I don't think FIL helped things this week because he cleaned the bathroom before he left and I just cleaned it again and it still smells like ass. Fuck this shit I want to be a beach bum.

    Sincerely,

    On the run
  • I have another and idc that it's Sunday

    Dear fire detector
    Thanks for beeping and shouting "low battery" at 1:45am
    I know you're just doing your job but you scared the dog to the point that she's just now calming down an hour later

    It may be Sunday but I'm still going to do this lol

    Dear hubby

    Stop being so tired all he time and laying around. I get it your sleep is all messed up cause you work days and nights but you've done it for 10 years suck it up and get use to it. I'm the one who is up 2 times a night or more for the last 2 months (while you sleep peacefully) and I manage to function.

    Love
    your exhausted wife who is going to lose her shit next time you so much as complain about being tired


    Dear poltical parties of Ontario

    Stop targeting teachers. What did we ever so to you??? Did you have a mean teacher when you were a kid so now you are taking it out on us. Current government you screwed teachers last year and now the guy running against you wants to increase class sizes and fire a bunch of teachers and EAs. Awesome our choices are lose our jobs or vote you back in. That's it I say Don Cherry needs to run so I can vote him in instead.

  • Dear DH,

    When you're being a dick non-stop, I am not the problem because I cannot get over it two seconds later.  How about, stop being a dick so we can all have a nice day.

    And if you don't like the cat puke that has been on the basement stairs for a month, then clean it up.  You have two arms, two hands, and two legs.  You know where the cleaning supplies are.  I'm sorry that dried up cat puke isn't my main priority when I have a baby that needs to be fed and changed, we need food in the house and dinners cooked, and the main parts of the house where people see need cleaning.  I couldn't care less about the basement stairs that are a dusty, cat hair mess anyway. 

    Signed, your overworked, under appreciated wife.

    Dear hair,

    Yours truly ,
    Your balding host :((
  • Dear dad and stepmom,

    Don't be offended when I give you a (polite) list of safety concerns I have for when you watch LO.  The rules have changed since you had little ones, sleeping on their tummy is no longer ok, and I would be a bad mom to just assume you know that.  You didn't have portable bucket seats when we were little so you don't know that she cannot sleep in her carseat once you bring her inside. 

    Don't get huffy and sarcastically joke about how I somehow survived childhood so they must have done something right....my dad was a great dad, but honestly with the lax safety standards back then I'm kind of surprised I did survive (my dad used to just put his arm in front of me for sudden stops in his truck that didn't have seatbelts....yeah cause his arm would have kept me from flying through the windshield).

    Even if rules hadn't changed, every parent has different ways of parenting THEIR own child and there is nothing wrong with communicating those ways to the people who will be watching their child.

  • Dear MIL,

    Thank you for being a great mother in law- even though the motivation is because you had such a bad relationship with your mIL and you don't want that for us.

    Your appreciative DIL

    Dear everyone,

    Sorry that I constantly ask if everything is ok while you have my little Sloan. I just do t want you to feel like I'm pushing her off on you. I know you want to spend time with her and will give her back when you don't want her anymore

  • @pepperedmoth,  MH is very much the same.  Every emotion comes out as anger or snottiness.  Some days I am able to rise above and know he isn't trying to be a jerk, he just doesn't know how to deal with embarrassment, helplessness, and frustration any other way.  But some days I do take it personally and wonder why he can't just admit when he is feeling these ways instead of acting like a child.

    Isn't it nice to figure out something like that about your spouse?  When we first started dating we clashed horns quite a bit because I didn't understand him.  He was constantly talking about buying this and doing that....all things that were too expensive or too time consuming to do and I would fight him on it.  Then I finally realized he was just talking.  Sure maybe he would like to do those things someday when time and money allows, but he wasn't seriously planning on going out and buying a boat tomorrow....so since I learned to just smile and say yeah that sounds cool, things are more peaceful on that front.
