Things my Mother in Law has said this past two weeks that make my head hurt:
-"I've had scabies for the past 5 years. I've stopped taking the treatment, though. It's just a scam to make money."
-"I think I have Scarlet Fever."
-"You look like you've been around a lot." (to my friend from work.)
-"I got athletes foot yesterday, so I'm wearing my shoes in the house."
-"Why do you think that house (recently shown to us by the patient real estate agent) had a dead leaf in the cupboard?"
-"I should go to the hospital! I feel just terrible! I think my heart is exploding!"
-"Do you think it's safe to let the children expose themselves to the sun like that?" (They were not naked. But they did have short sleeves.)
-"The mechanic is just trying to rip me off. That yellow light has been on for weeks, and nothing bad has happened to the car."
-"They do voice print at the bank, you know. That's why I like to just write notes, and not talk while I'm there."
And the one and only thing she has said that made me leap for joy:
"I think I need to go back. I will drive down south with you guys, and then continue on home. This is not the right place for me."

OMG. You're a stronger woman than I.
Wow, that makes me feel bad for rolling my eyes so much at my mother-in-law. She's not so bad, we're just so (thankfully) different. :)
Hoo boy! Let me know when the last one comes true and we can all toast the event!
She's been taking lessons from my mother, who delivers what I call "The Grim Reaper Report" in every email, message, phone call - who is sick, who has died, who is going to die, who wished they were dead, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH!
She is suspicious of everyone and everything...
