................my OH works away most of the spring and summer and he missed his birthday, so my MIL suggested we go for a meal to compensate, her treat. We get to where SHE has suggested, which
I booked, and we had a nice meal, a bit strained, but ok.....when the bill comes, she just sits there for a minute or two, didn't look at it, so my OH got his wallet out, then she made a sort of attempt to get her purse out saying it was her treat, whereupon my OH said he'll pay, and b4 you could say another word, her bag shut fast and that was that!!
HE PAID FOR HIS OWN BIRTHDAY MEAL that was supposed to be her treat!!!! My blood was boiling I can tell you
!!!!!!!!! How I didn't say anything was a miracle!! She took me for lunch for my birthday in March when my OH was away and the kids were in school, as she couldn't think what to get me, the thing is, I have to say thankyou for a meal that is free, if you have proof it's your birthday, i.e. d.licence or b. cert., it's a free meal, drink and dessert. Whooppee!! She pays for hers, but not mine and I have to say, thankyou that was lovely!! When I really want to say is, you tight-ar**d old bag!!
Is it me, or am really that ungrateful?? Like with the anti-wrinkle cream....if i'd have got it for her, she would have moaned to anyone who would listen, can you imagine it?? Same with this free meal deal!! I think long and hard what to get her, (it's on the 26th Nov.
) so if i suggest a free lunch, will she be grateful too, somehow don't think so...
