plain nuts My motherinlaw stayed with him for the childrens sake She also is not too bright My husbands youngest brother is on drugs Hes been picked up for burglary forgery car theft and has served time in prison Every time my brotherinlaw gets into trouble they call Jack This has gone on for over 10 years We get calls every time my fatherinlaw belts my mother inlaw around Then we get all the details of how the fight started We know how she fell where she fell how much he drank before he hit her etc etc blah blah blah Ive asked my motherinlaw to keep all the garbage to herself That was three years ago but she hasnt stopped cant reason with her Shes always got some mess going And then after not being able to take care of her own business she tries to tell us what to do All want is normal home life for us and good environ ment for our children Please comment or advise Sign Me Resentful Dear You will need your husbands cooperation if you want to separate your family from the unfortunate demands of your inlaws and all the dumping they do on you suggest you make an appointment with an unbiased third party not relative or social friend Explain the situation and ask how to go about removing yourselves as referees fixeruppers sounding boards and just plain victims have always said it takes two to create situation like the one you describe party who hooks people into his own personal problems takes their time and energy and money asks for advice never taking it and ends up doing one crazy thing after another 0n the receiving end is someone who is weak or foolish enough to allow it to happen time and time again The net of the problem is this No one can repeatedly take advantage of anyone else without his permisSion Dear Ann lianders am writing to give encouragement to tine young lady who lost her boyfriend in senseless acci ent She mentioned that when sweethearts end love affair there is always the possibility of reconciliation but not for her Her friend is dead would like to let her know she is very fortunate in one regard she is not plagued with feelings of guilt because of inattentiveness irresponsibility improper behavior and other faults that cause most couples to break up All this rests on my shoulders along with the feeling of loss and loneliness Im sure the heartbroken girl has considered suicide have But oh what waste What cowardly lack of character that would show There is much in this life to learn so many good people to love so much growing and improving to be done No suicide is not the answer hope her pain passes quickly and is replaced with lovely memories Remember tomorrow is new day Cherish your friendship and good friends will help ease the pain promise Been There Almost Dear Been Thanks for those encouraging words know they helped Erma Bombeck Leftovers female ritual have never known woman who can look at mound of leftover food in bowl or on platter and throw it away the first time around It has nothing to do with being frugal or having imagina tion It has to do with genetics When woman is born she possesses leftover gene that is fully developed by the time she is 25 Then there is no amount of food too small to save peach pit in cup of juice half wiener two egg yolks unbroken heaping spoonful of apple sauce turkey car cass cup gravy wedge of tomato or an asparagus spear are given shelf space The leftover ritual is practiced by cvcry woman in this country Noonc has to tell her how to do it She knows First the leftover is placed in leftover dish and covered by lid that is burped piece of aluminium foil or put in pan with lid It doesnt matter what the container is just as long as you cannot see the contents During the next few weeks the leftover goes through its rotation syndrome The first few days it occupies the first row the second week the second row and by the third week it is relegated to the back row This does not mean that it is ignored Eicry timc the refrigerator door is opened someone will pull back the lid or the foil and engage in the original game show of all times called What IS this The object of the game is never to throw away leftover as long as it can be recognized It is not thrown away until it recognizes you No fair cheating Men do not understand the anatomy of leftover They think the process can be hurried by taking food that is left over right from the table and dumping it into the garbage thus eliminating the ripening process They do not understand why there are 36 thimblcsimd containers of taco sauce that are left over from takeout Mexican food emporiums Or why there is more food saved in the name of vegetable soup and you havent had vegetable soup in six years surveyed my leftover domain the other day while my husband looked over my shoulder and said How long have you had that in there and when are you going to get rid of it llejust answered his own question Pollys Pointers Corners keep satin in place DEAR POLLY We have some satin sheets just taking up space in the closet because every time we use them they slide onto the floor Is there some way to keep such sheets on the bed BRENDA DEAR BRENDA The only suggestion can offer is to round all four corners of the bottom sheet gather corners and then stitch ve narrow elastic all around the edges of the sheet no will stay under the mattress Round the lower corners only of the top sheet gather corners and then stitch narrow elastic across the bottom and around the corners Perhaps some of the readers have found better relation and share it with us POLLY DEAR POLLY Whenever prepare dishes such as baked beans or scalloped potatoes leave what is left over in the dish and put it in the refrigerator overnight The next day take the dish out and it scra es clean very easily because the cold softens what stic to the sides This saves lot of time spent scra ing with knife before it is ready for the washer ER DEAR POLLY When lemons are special at the grocery store buy several cut them into slices put in plastic sandwich bags and freeze them When want just one slice of lemon for cup of tea can remove It from the freezer and drop it in the tea It also helps cool down extremely hot water KATHLEEN DEAR PULLY use night light in the bathroom and find replacing bulb is su risingl expensive So now use Christmas tree light bu be in ear or white and can buy about eight of them for the price of one night light refill kit THELMA DEAR POLLY save em ty salad dressing bottles and fill them with cooking oil ones that have lastic disc in the top with small hole are really handy or this because only few drfis can be put in skillet without mess or waste JOA
