Put the Pickle Jar Back Please Ma'am

It's amazing how someone can at will and word cause bodily harm to someone else and be glad to do so.

In case you were thinking it's me (well ok.. yes that can be me too, but I wasn't talking about me this time) I was speaking of my parents. Yep, my poor little, sweet, innocent parents. Who would have thought for one second they could hurt somebody and with strategic contemplation and planning. HA!!!! Well anybody who knows my parents knows they could.

I mean....are parents supposed to be this way?......especially over their GROWN children?

I recently had another bout with my husband over a re-occurring issue that I don't think he and I will EVAH.....I mean NEEEVAHHHHHH agree on (unless one day I loose my damn mind or grow a sausage for a head). So of course we argued and I got upset.

Well, for those who don't know, my husband is allergic to pickles/cucumbers. Out of need to vent, I told my parents what angered me. Right or wrong there they go.......they are ready to pull out a jar full of pickles! And I can hear it in their voices like, yes! This is the one! We finally get to do it! They keep a jar of pickles on hand in the pantry. I mean they literally wait for the que! They wait for the day to make a "special salad"!

The good thing is neither one of us can take the other being upset for very long, so we let our guards down and forgive. Pretty soon there's a peace offering (mostly done by him) and our lives continue back to normal.

I guess it's great to know I have folks in my corner and I love my parents for that! They bring soo much humor to my life.

Disappointed they'll be, but for now, I will have to say "False Alarm!...It's ok! Put the pickle jar back in the pantry!"
