MOTHER
IN LAWS - THE PEEPING TOM
ACT IX
Mother
in Laws Problems & Surviving Difficult Relationships
Jane and
Todd were in the middle of a passionate moment when
she glanced towards the mirrored ceiling of the bedroom
and saw her mother in law standing at the bedroom door,
her beaded purse in hand, her wrinkled mouth agape.
Jane screamed; mother screamed and when Todd saw his
mother, he screamed.
Hopefully
this unfortunate scene hasn't made it to the hallways
of your bedroom, but when dealing with a nosey mother
in law, anything's possible. Take last Christmas....
Jane and
Todd had decided to get away during the Christmas holidays,
which had hit 'mother' like a wooden stake in the heart
- although mother didn't actually have a heart, the
mean mother in law that she was. Her sole ambition
in her adult life was to make life as miserable for
Jane as possible.
Nonetheless,
Jane and Todd opted for a romantic hayride rather than
dinner at mother's. Mother was enraged at the news,
promising them that one way or another they would be
spending the holiday with her. Never mind that her poor
husband had just returned from a three month oversea's
trip and had appreciated Jane's and Todd's thoughtfulness
of giving him time to recuperate and rest on the blessed
day.
Jane and
Todd were nestled in the hay, the driver of a six-team
horse tram leading them on a trail that roped romantically
through the forest. The scenery was beautiful;
the light snow was romantic, and the couple's passion
ignited. As Jane and Todd tumbled and fell back on the
hay, mother's head poked out from one rather fat bale.
'Surprise!' she yelled. Surprise indeed. The horses
stampeded and it took four hours to get back to the
barn.
In Summary
- Mean mother in law's almost always win. I know; but
it's a sad fact that must be recognized. To have a mother
in law that is both nosey and mean is a double whammy.
