*delurks*
Nothing like having something to complain about to bring me out of hiatus mode. Seems the in-laws have found a new (imagined) fault with me. They seem to think that I have been abusing my daughter. And why would they think that? Well because when she went over there last week, she was sporting a few bruises on her back leg. Now these bruises *must* have been a result in my beating the child. I mean, it's just not possible that she could have gotten them while using her toys as step-stools in order to reach the buttons on the dvd player in her room (that's placed a bit high so it doesn't get broken) and losing balance and falling on top of said toys. Oh no.. I *must* be abusing my child. Beating her black and blue. So this recent accusation has flared up family drama once again. Ever so fun.
Perhaps the thing that really bothers me about this whole situation is that my MIL, like most elderly people, likes to talk and gossip among her friends and other family. Especially about things she thinks are horrible. All she has to do is open her mouth to one person (or several) who feels as though it is their duty to make the proper authorities know and then, once again, my life will become a living hell because of a fucking false accusation. Because of course, the accusation that David made years ago out of spite will come into the limelight once again. Doesn't matter if it was false as well, it was still recorded.
I guess I should be thankful. They have yet to find me responsible for the war on Iraq. /sarcasm
Now.. I'm going to go feed my beaten child some chocolate pudding. (The cook/serve kind.)
