She's at it Again

My ex was always an extravagant, controlling beatch. During our seventeen year marriage, I could never do anything right. From my choice of careers to where I'd choose to park the car, nothing was ever good enough for her. I see that now. They say love is blind, which in my case was certainly true. I loved her once....a lot.

Our only daughter is getting married. Sabrina and Sheldon are planning their wedding while trying to stay within budget, and they should. It's their day. Well, Holy shit! All hell's beginning to break loose.

Her mother's been driving me bonkers. We should be buying this and that. The planned dinner could be better, at a nicer place, etcetera, etcetera. Every time my phone rings, it's something else.

It's all stuff that increases expenses. She has this fucked up idea that the father of the bride should give his daughter the best wedding money can buy. If I remember correctly, my ex didn't exactly come with a dowry. I footed most of the bill when we had our day.

Sabrina and Sheldon are planning it their way. My wish is that her mother offers suggestions only if asked, and not do what she's so good at. Taking over, except for expenses.

  • Daggone, you're letting her yank your chain, again?

    Dude, take control. Change your number or something.

    Women tend to go crazy about weddings - especially that of their daughters. My mother was the exception. She really didn't care much about how I did things, just asked if she could invite some people and if she could buy the cake.

    My mom is tops.
