lemme get this straight..

..yer maw-in-law paid ta have yer plumbing fixed? yer wife okayed it?

divorce the squeak.

gimmie her number, we have a future.

or.. you ain't learned jack about mind-diddly in 11 years of marrige? if i was was annoyed as you are, I'd pop in at the inlaws house when they ain't home and repaint some room that needs it a hideous shade of purple. then leave 'em a note:

"thanks for helpin out with my place.. i still have 5 gals of this paint left; i'll be back tomorrow to finish up in the living room and kitchen. love, yer happy son-in-law."

Don't get mad.. get even.

                                      :D

So they tied on some beer can shingles with some old broken banjo strings,... big deal.  They did stuff the coon skin insulation back up, right?  How about the cardboard "sheet rock"?  Are you not happy with the brand of beer from the case that they choose?

Maybe you'l feel better about the situation if you write a song about it.  :)

They probably talked about it and decided to fix it without telling you hblair, because they figured "he's always on that damn computer instead of fixing the house, and he won't even notice".  :)

ya, you're right it would have been much better to come home and skip the shower ('cause the waters turned off  because of the leak). and went right to fixing it yourself without a break.  

just think, you could have been completely covered in sheet-rock dust and probably at least two or three handfulls of fiber-glass insulation down your back, before you even had dinner.

ya she really screwed you over today.  but I'm a peace making sort, so anytime this comes up again you can send her relatives and their checkbook over to my house.  just looking out for ya.


BTW-ya, you're wrong.  I usually come home to find a freind or family member has a leak or other repair problem and needs help.  so I get to play free repair man after my days work. wish I had your problem.

You guys got the wrong impression. I'm not lazy. Been busting my rear the past three months getting my other house ready to sell. This is secondary. We have two baths so the kids have been using ours til I get it fixed. I had already evaluated the leak. It's (was) in the drain. I had planned on repairing it without cutting the ceiling in my living room. Seeing Leroy the plumber and a big hole in my living room flew all over me. It wasn't even necassary.

It's like one of them coming home and I've got the dash ripped out of their car fixing a small rattle. I'm qualified to do it and I mean well, but I wouldn't think of doing it without informing them. I guess I should just be a good bum and graciously accept any freebie handouts that come my way.

hblair, count your blessings. You could have a bunch of freeloading in-laws who drop in like a swarm of locusts, stay six months, run up your phone bill and eat everything out of your deep freeze before they move on to torment the NEXT in law... I'll swap ya in laws sight unseen.

paint a few rooms at the inlaws, and keep a straight face when they talk about it 10 years from now.

HB, when I first saw this topic, I was thinking...HB and his gun again.   Big hole in the ceiling!!!:D

Seriously dude, sounds like you got problems with the in-laws' control over your space.  You give up being king of the castle soon as you get married... or didn't you know that?:)
