Things overheard at my house on Thanksgiving

All in all it was a good day but I'm still suprised at some of the things that were said during the day. It was quite an interesting day to say the least.

My sister-in-law to me,,,

"Hey, why does your adams apple look so big?"

HUH? I don't get it.. Where the hell did that come from? This is coming from a woman who said to me one day as I was coming home from work to find her and my wife giggling about something...."Don't worry, we're not talking about your mother."

My sister-in-law's brother-in-law to my brother..

"You mean to tell me that John Madden's eight legged turkey isn't a real retarded turkey?"

My brother to him...

No, J. It's not real. They just put the extra legs on there to make it look cool."

J to my brother...

"All these years I've been thinking it was a REAL eight legged retarded turkey?"!!! "You're kidding , right?"

Me and my brother....
Laughing out loud!!!!

My sister-in-law's mother to me....

"Isn't that too hot to put on the table?"

I don't know, I must be a jerk, I've been cooking for over 35 years you'd think I would have the smarts NOT to put something down that would be too hot! DUH! They always talk to me like I'm an idiot. This is also coming from a woman whom I had to give the heimlick to, to save her life after she woofed too much roast beef trying not to let us see her sneaking it LAST year.

Things were going fairly well until my wife's aunt gave grace and mentioned the passing of my mother-in-law, along with her father and her sister-in-law the past year and a half. It was a tough 2 years. My wife broke down. It took me a few minutes to calm her down.

I didn't hear too much else because I was downstairs in my other kitchen preparing the meal or doing the dishes pretty much the whole day. This was actually a good thing.

And the number ONE bomb dropped on me yesterday was by my youngest brother,, The one I JUST catered the wedding for 2 months ago, Sept 10th.....

Bro,,,, "Hey brudda, guess what?!!"

Me,,, "I can't imagine,, What?"

Bro,,,"My wife just filed for a divorce this week."

Me,,, "You're joking, right?"

Bro,,, "Nope!"


YUP! an interesting day to say the least!

Hope everybody's day was great!
