Duck, bill.
Chicken, beak. Got it.
And, uh.... all birds are hatched, not born.

Thank you!!!

My TMI rant to Dad:
I remind you of my open ended offer to visit (or live) with me to help in your 3 year long grief. Hubs built an apartment in our home for you after you said you would come to live. It’s been 2 years and still you are not here. This year you told me you’d come on XYZ days this month and that month year then you cancelled the day before—after I told the grandkids, stocked food and drink, personalized the guest room for you so you feel most welcome, and took time off work.
This month I have no more vacation days so I tried to get you to come on a Friday or Saturday, but noooo- you insisted on driving on a Sunday- 8 hours. Ok. One kid goes back to college on Sundays. Sunday morning I get a call “probably leaving Monday morning. I got some stuff to do (sleepy voice)”.
Oh, really!!??!! After I again drove 45 min one way to the only decent store this morning to get the things you asked for, you pull this sh! at 10AM??? College kid came home this weekend knowing you’d be there Sunday??? Kid said he’s used to it! Choke on that grandpa!!
Text received at 5 pm: I’ll prob leave after the Lion’s game. Me: Uhhh- that puts you here around 2-3 AM- I don’t think so! Your @SS better be stopping at the bridge cuz me and hubs work for a living, and I ain’t opening the door at no damn 2 AM because you can’t crawl out of your 3 year apathetic state and decide to tie one on the night before you are supposed to drive 8 hrs to visit your family for once. Show up at 2AM and find out how much I’ve been holding back.
(deep breath)- aahhhhhh ‍

Just a thought, but this sounds like he may have a drug problem. I hope not, but you may want to do some discreet inquiries.

He sounds depressed.

I know you love your beautiful, blonde haired blue eyed grandchildren. But they are out of control, screaming brats. They scream loud enough to make my roosters alert to danger! Just what are you doing over there, 300 feet away, that I can hear them way over here? Knock it off!

I had the same thought

Hmm. Call the police and ask for a welfare check?

That's a little intense. They might just be loud kids. My neighbor has a young boy who has nonverbal down syndrome. He screams a lot. Screams and grunts. It's his only way to communicate. I know about his condition but someone else might not and I would hate for them to have the cops called on them, even if it's for a welfare check

Good point.

I realize your new house does not have a basement and you and your kids and dogs are welcome to come over here and hang out with us during the next tornado warning as long as the dogs are on leash and under control. But please understand that the minute you let them charge my cats and annoy them, they are going outside and not coming back in. Period.
