Would you like to hear some girlie wisdom?
Girlie Wisdom! Women over 50 don't have babies because they would put them down and forget where they left them. ? A friend of mine confused her Valium with her birth control pills... she has 14 kids but doesn't really care. ? One of life's mysteries is how a 2-pound box of chocolates can make a woman gain 5 lbs. ? My mind not only wanders, it sometimes leaves completely. ? The best way to forget your troubles is to wear tight shoes. ? The nice part about living in a small town is that when you don't know what you are doing, someone else does. ? The older you get, the tougher it is to lose weight because by then, your body and your fat are really good friends. ? Just when I was getting used to yesterday, along came today. ? Sometimes I think I understand everything, and then I regain consciousness. ? I gave up jogging for my health when my thighs kept rubbing together and setting fire to my knicker's. ? Amazing! You hang something in your closet for a while and it shrinks 2 sizes! ? Skinny people irritate me! Especially when they say things like...'You know sometimes I forget to eat!' .....Now I've forgotten my address, my mother's maiden name and my keys, but I have never forgotten to eat. You have to be a special kind of stupid to forget to eat! ? The trouble with some women is that they get all excited about nothing and then they marry him. ? I read this article that said the typical symptoms of stress are eating too much, impulse buying, and driving too fast. Are they kidding? That's my idea of a perfect day! This was an email sent to me, just thought I would share.

Mandy asks…
I hate my boyfriends mother... Can anyone help me?
I know it sounds harsh... but seriously this women has problems.... I am currently living with my boyfriend whom i love very much.. My boyfriends mother has minor Schizophrenia.. currently unemployed for the past 5-6 years lost her house and has moved in with us because she has nowhere else to live basically.. She is very messy you have to clean up after her like a child sometimes but the only difference is she knows better...She doesn't work so it would be a nice help if she at least did some cooking or cleaning around the house since she has so much spare time... but no she just lays around, and when it comes to cooking she only cooks meals for herself. which I'm not really upset about because her cooking is a little off.. I cook dinner almost every night i do not exclude her from any meals that i cook... i always make enough for 3 or more ppl...Sometimes she will throw away my cooking and say that it taste like cigarette buds was in it... She throws away and wastes a lot of food because she thinks something is in it like "fur, fuzz, cigarette buds, black stuff" or she'll just make something put a pound of salt in it, and then throw it away because clearly now it is uneatable... she washes clothes everyday... sometimes only 1 or 2 things at a time... and on top of that sometimes she'll even wash them twice because she feels they are not clean without even checking them first... so the water bill isalwaysy sky high.. it drives me crazy...this is what i have to deal with on a everyday basis... On top of all of this recently sheaccidentallyy knocked all of my clothes down that was hanging in our spare room... as she was picking them up off the floor she started to claim that certain items belonged to her... I wear a small/medium she is a pretty heavy lady she needs to be wearing a 2x or bigger but she claims she likes to buy her clothes smaller so she wears a large/XL if i had a pic i would post it... she dresses extremely sloppy, a grown women over 50 with pants that are TOO small, crack hanging out her pants that she cant button tops thatdon'tt fit those DD so if she moves around 2 much you might see a nipple... itsembarshingg... my boyfriend has to force her to change 90 percent of the time if we are suppose to be going out together (which is not as often as we would both like but when we go out torestaurantss she eats 75 percent of her food and then complains to the waiter that her food was nasty, or it taste like"someone put a baby aspirin in her drink or food" or she will wear some high heels that she cant walk in and will want to take them off and walk on the ground outside, or in the mall, store,restaurantt with no shoes on.. which is clearly not allowed or sanitary) i even tried to go out and buy her some nice tops but when i brought them home she said shecouldn'tt wear them because they were too big... i watched her try them on... theyweren'tt, in fact they fit better than in thing ive seen her in.. but i just took the clothes back anddidn'tt bother to buy her anything else...Anyway me and her got into a big dispute when she started swearing that a sweater was hers... accusing me of taking it from her... i told my boyfriend he and i both know that it is way to small and that it clearlyisn'tt hers but it bothers me how much she lies... she lies aboutbasicallyy everything that she does and when she lies on me it is just too much for me to handle sometimes... I love my boyfriend and i wish i could feel the same way about his mother but the things she does just upsets the hell out of me sometimes...my boyfriend knows that his mom is not all mentally there and he is use to her crazy antics but im not and idon'tt like making him feel like he has to take a side but im kind of on my last string with his nutty mother.. what should i do? does anyone know how i can try to cope with this behavior? any suggestion?? someone please help me i love my boyfriend but his mother is literally driving me away.. she puts me in a bad mood which i find very hard to get out of and its effecting my relationship with him... Just so you know: Schizophrenia is a mental disorder that makes it difficult to tell the difference between real and unreal experiences, to think logically, to have normal emotional responses, and to behave normally in social situations. As the illness continues, psychotic symptoms develop: •An appearance or mood that shows no emotion (flat affect) •Bizarre motor behavior in which there is less reaction to the environment (catatonic behavior) •False beliefs or thoughts that have nothing to do with reality (delusions) •Hearing, seeing, or feeling things that are not there (hallucinations) •Thoughts "jump" between unrelated topics (disordered thinking) (i got this list and definition from https://health.google.com/health/ref/Schizophrenia) she suffers from all the above...

Our pick of the answers:
There are only two choices you have: 1) accept your mother-in-law's behavior as the symptoms of her disorder and then deal with it with the detachment a nurse would muster or 2) have her move out and pass on the responsibility of her care to someone else - possibly professional help. Discuss these options with your boyfriend. You BOTH have to decide between one of these two. Weigh all the pros and cons to either of the choices, don't forget to mention the strain option 1) puts on YOUR life and your relationship. When you decide on option 2) make sure your boyfriend contributes his share to his mother's care. A talk with her doctor would be good too, he is used to talking to care givers of people with this disorder and can probably give you some good advice on how to deal with the burden. Good luck
