Nothing like a visit to the in-laws house to remind you how little they think of your family. Pictures of SIL & BIL's kids everywhere, absolutely none of ours anywhere. After 25 years it shouldn't surprise me, but… yeah. *sigh*
Oh, this is tough. That hurts. I would always give my MIL big pictures of my kids and I would buy super nice frames to put them in. The next time we would visit, the frames would be off the pictures and the pictures sort of shoved behind stuff on her bookcase. My kids faces would be peeking out from behind chachkies. I have no idea what happened to the frames.

This inlaws/pictures of the grandkids thing must be universal. Happens to us too.

We haven't heard a peep out of mine since the teeth episode. Hubby and his dad had words, and it wasn't a great situation. And all the harsh words were coming from his dad. They have not even called to see how Ali got on at the dentist or to see how she has been since. Very hurtful.

For you girls who can rock those stiletto heels, more power to you sistah! I was looking at ankle boot images last night and there are some gorgeous shoes. If I could wear those heels, I would do it in a New York minute. but,

1. I look like a baby Godzilla teetering on sticks -- no ankle strength whatsoever.
2. I end up about 6'5'' in them. A Danny Devito body as the Penguin on stilts is ugly.

I used to wear what I called "hooker heels." ;;D More tall platform shoes and boots (and wedges) than stilettos. I don't think I pulled it off then, and definitely don't think I could pull it off now! Imagine a whole lotta lurching, teetering and wobbling. Somebody would surely call the paramedics, thinking I was having some kind of medical crisis!! :down:

Any sort of heel is dangerous for me. But, the thicker the heel, the more base I have to stand on, the more stable I am. I do see that a thicker heel is coming back with stylish options. Look how cute these are:
