Family – putting the fun in dysfunctional

Saturday was the Smith family Christmas get-together.  We had to hold it early due to my brother’s police employment (he has to work Christmas).

Mom and Dad went to China last summer.  They gave each of us a Beijing olympics 2008 t-shirt.  Translation of sizes was difficult, so they guessed.

I opened mine:

Me:  Thanks.  It looks nice, but it looks like it won’t fit.

Mom:  That’s OK – you can lose weight until you fit into it.

Yep.  She actually said that.

    4. That’s classic.

    It is no accident that package stores do such a tremendous business during the holidays.

    5. I would have said, Thank you for sharing that information with me. (Well, I have had to say that before!)

Tell me what you're thinking...
