Funny as this is, I’ve found men to be the worst hypochondriacs out there.

I hate those drug commercials. Death is a frequent symptom if you take them….she forgot to mention that one.

I’d just go with what she’s saying and take her to the doctor. Let him give her a full cavity search to find out what the problem is. Or maybe put her on meds to make her sleep half the day. Does anyone recall how they get rid of the in-laws?? Anyone?
Hello Cathy friends! Happy Thursday! Have a great day, all!

OMG ….. with a hypochondriac like that, Cathy and Irving are NEVER going to be rid of these two freeloaders because his bat-crap crazy mother will be too afraid to leave the house lest everything she sees, hears, smells, tastes, and touches will give her every disease known to man if she does!

lindz.coop asked yesterday “Who sits on their son and daughter-in-law’s couch for 6 months? Who?”. I know a family where exactly that happened. Her father was not well so they allowed him to move in with them. All he did was sit and watch tv all day – and insisted on French fries for dinner every night. He stayed there for about 2 years until his death. Funny, the couple are no longer together.
So exaggerated as the people in the strip are, there are people like that in real life too.
We got lucky, heavy wet snow within 5 km of us yesterday – nothing here – yet. I hope you all have a great fall (not winter) day today.

Don’tcha love when the medicine ads list more side effects than benefits for the drugs?
HI, MOM. Hello, Clan.

Aack…put her in the hospital if she’s in such bad shape…and it’ll get her out of your house.
