Open Letter to my Mother-in-Law

Marilyn,

Sweetie, honey. I have always liked you a great deal. Even more now that we have had a number of the talks that Mark worries we will have more of. Alright, gossip. Yes, I said it. But I think we can be honest with each other, gossiping is fun. And your fun, and I'm fun - so it was bound to happen. I say, let's roll with it. I can deal with Mark later.

But Marilyn, since you have been away on your holiday we have been getting your mail. Last year, when we did this I started to covet Dwight's issues of National Geographic and Discovery. Luckily, I have grown since that time. Things change. Tastes change.

So to make a long story short. I am sorry. You're not getting your JC Penny catalogue back. Consider it collateral damage.

Hugs and Kisses

Your Daughter-in-Law

HEIDI:
By all means known to man, secrete the JC P. mail and catalogues where Marilyn will never ever be able to find them again, and you be sure to enjoy them for two..
Please with all your computer skills make it impossible for Marilyn ever to even recall any web site that even starts with jc..

LOL, good luck Mark.

Miss you both
from Phuket

Ha Ha! That is pretty funny, and I can certainly understand. I can look through that thing a dozen times and find something different I like each time!
