Many yeas ago
My parents house. My brother and I have the exact same guns Sig P220. I had done some trigger work and my brother wanted me to work on his. So we cover the pool table with a sheet and take his gun apart and work on it for about an hour. Mom calls for us to come eat. We all go eat and my brother goes and puts his gun back together except for the washer in the grip. He has a habit of dropping on in the pipe closing the action and then seating the magazine. Well he does this except the magazine does not go in because the washer is not in the gun. We look for the washer for about an hour and then give up. He then asks me if I felt his trigger. I pick it up-aim at a dot on the side of the pool table and sqeeze of the round in the chamber. round goes through the pool table down into the carpet goes under a wall and comes up out of the carpet in another room and striking my Mom in the collar bone and then bounced up and landed on my wife's head burning the hair and her scalp. Well the bullet was a hydro-shock and my Mom's collar bone is bleeding from the exposed point and we are thinking it may have fractured her collarbone. We load up and goto the hospital to have X-rays and my brother being an EMT calls ahead and explains what happened. Return from hospital only to have HPD crime scene all over the house. My Mom starts making plates for the Detectives that are talking to my bother and I. Get done talking to us and then state they are headed to the hospital to interview the gunshot victim. My Mom pipes up and says that she is right here. Detectives leave and a Parol Officer stays around while Crime Scene gets everything. Patrol Officer stays around for a few hours and sits and eats evening meal with family and we even had him say the prayer for the meal. My Mom fixes him a plate of cookies and pie and fixes him a large glass of milk to take with him. Patrol Officer takes plate but refuses milk saying he didn't want to take her container. About 15 minutes later our doorbell rings and it is the Patrol Officer saying everything is closed and he will be happy with a glass of milk. We all laughed and he came in and played cards and spent another hour or two at the house. He stopped by my parents house every Christmas after that until he retired So I guess we qualify- I shot my Mom and wife on Christmas. |
Got some probably on the way! All 3 son's are married and their women want to spend ALL the holidays around their family. My middle TBH son put his foot down and said next year they will just spend Christmas at the Deer Lease, lol. My oldest stayed in Houston and that's ok. My youngest, the military one, is having the same thing trying to keep all the in-laws happy-his wife's side.
Susan and I just agreed next year it's either at the Deer lease or Las Vegas...something like that. Then, well, we will just send Sonic gift cards and do our thing.. :) |

I left the drama family members in the dust witin the past several years. They are ridiculous. I rarely speak to them.
|
Geez and I thought my wife's aunt getting sideways with me because I told her she couldn't smoke on my closed in porch was bad!
|
I had to shoot a bunch of dudes in the face....On Battlefield Hardline.
Then I watched Meat Eater until my wife came home then we are prime rib. No family drama here! Lol I haven't been back home to GA in 4 years so I've escaped all the "WHEN YOO GONNA HAVE SUM BABIES!?!?"... |

Yeppers, me also - my family would hide stuff from me because they knew it was face to face with me. My little sister was sexually harassed at work and they didn't tell me for 10 yrs - still found him after that but by that time he was to old for a beat down - the fact that he knew that I knew was enough for me....I let him walk |

Just got back from a weekend with my family, who all get along and have a great time, except for some stupid stuff my sister in law says. She is a hippy type, and also a staunch gender equality advocate, but yet a republican. Some of the things she said:
There sbould be no difference between "actors" and "actresses", they should all be simply actors. Yet when I asked her if she didn't like the gender references in the adjectives, and she said yes, I told her that I would start calling her Mister instead of Mrs. She swears that Blue Bell had multiple violations for listeria in their plants and that they were fined millions of dollars several times for the violations, but they refused to correct the problem because doing a recall and refunding everyone's money was more expensive than paying the fines. She now boycotts Blue Bell because of that. She also swears that any male she works with can't take FMLA leave for more than 2 weeks because their employer won't let let take more than two weeks. Her dumb@ss doesn't know the difference between "paid leave" and "non paid" leave lol It was to the point that I quit aurguing with her cause I can't explain things to her on her lower level of intellegence. |
Go see my MIL this week for Xmas. Everyone is sitting around catching up, and my SIL tells us her FIL accidentally shot himself earlier that day. Apparently was showing off his gun cleaning skills to the family. Multiple people and newborn in the room. He got lucky, only 13 stitches needed in his hand. Glad we didn't go there!!

Drama free this year except for my teenage daughter who thinks we spent more money on her brothers than on her and her sister. Acted all sad and upset my wife. I had a long talk with her and I doubt she listened but hey in the end it was pretty good compared to some of our previous episodes.

My family is completely screwed up. My wife's family is pretty messed up but it all stems around my Bil. He's always looking to start a fight with someone and then papa gets mad at him and takes it out on the grandkids. Now my family! I'm the only child to move out from my moms place. Have two sisters that are in there 40's still living with mommy. My brother who is in his late 40's lives there. Nobody helps my mom and she always calls me for loans to help her out.
Well rewind to October and my mom was mad at me and the wife because we didn't want anyone in the room with us while we had our second child. She's selfish. Now fast forward to two weeks before Christmas. My wife works for the same company that my mother works for. Mom is still mad at my wife and takes it to her boss. Long story short they let my wife go because my mother can't work with her. Then my mother wants me to take her side. Lol To cap it all off now my mother doesn't have to see my wife anymore along with me and her grandkids. I've spent too much time and money on helping her when she wont help herself. There is a whole bunch more to my family but I would use a whole page to tell it all. |
Nothing good happened with ours this year. I didn't even exchange gifts with Rusty so that potential was wasted. I did have a small little moment. I'm getting married this week and my soon to be MIL was asking how the move was going. The subject turned to where I plan to hang my trophies. When we told her "the living room" she was disgusted and said they belong in the garage. When I told her that I've spent too much money to let something I'm proud of sit in the garage, she stated that she thought I had more class than that...
I told her it was time to stop and talk about something else. |

Are we related? My wife's MIL is a piece of work as well. I left that drama behind me years ago. Life is too short to put up with folks who do everything they can to make you miserable. |

Anybody get a ladder for Christmas? Lol |
Quote:
Nope, lol. The ladder issue has been dropped. Their attention has been diverted to new drama. They were in a fender bender on Xmas day. It seems a lady slammed on her brakes 2 cars in front of them and they hit the car between the two. So basically, the car in front of them rear ended someone and they proceeded to hit that car, if that makes sense. The ol 3 car pile up. Good news is they are expecting a large settlement since somehow they've concluded that it was the other drivers fault that they were following to close.[emoji3] |
