Yeah, mine's been on and off. Coolest thing was a Radio Shack multimeter about 10 years ago. 5 years or so ago she gave me about $50.

In the meantime, I'm the "repair man" for all her cars and major appliances, and she expects the same from me for my meth-ho niece of whom she is the primary enabler. Yeah, I could go on, but mine isn't one of the cool ones.

I'm really sick of fixing other people's things for free. But it's Christmas, and I got myself a bottle of Wild Turkey 101 and my wife got me a bottle of Johnny Walker Red. Not sure why she got me Johnny Walker, never have been a blended scotch drinker, but she takes a bit after her mother. Hey, it's brown, it has alcohol in it, and may help me through the Holidays.

My MIL usually gets me something my wife would enjoy... Or a $1.99 T shirt..

At least I can wear a T shirt...

But, after 40 years of meddling and encouraging my wife to leave me.. I don't expect, or want much from her..

I suppose that would be one drawback of marrying young..

If you hadn't mentioned the 40 years, I would think you were married to my ex-wife.
That was EXACTLY what her mother did to me.
No matter what I did it was wrong, according to that old sea hag!!!
