started waxing.
    So Eric noticed, Mom, you have no hair on your legs.  Good to see the skin again, never thought it was possible.
     
    Michael comes up behind me, surprises me as usual.  He is funny; he is my brother-in-law, Ryan’s, best friend.  Ryan introduced us and set us up on a date, it did not work.  Between having to work late that night, which meant I arrived at his apartment, 1 hour after I was due.  Which did not go well? So we tried again, this time, I had an accident on the way to his apartment.
     
    We agreed, fate was keeping us apart, so we remain friends, and bump into each other only on special occasions.  Such as today.
     
    Michael and Ryan went to the same school.  You would never believe it.  Michael was a cop and he had seen everything in his lifetime and his lifelines were showing.  Also, he was a divorcee with one daughter, which was probably the only reason Hannah and Megan, wanted us to get together, so they would have another girl in the family.
    I do like Michael in another life, maybe who knows – but we both know it was not meant to be.  It is obvious.  The third time, his mother turns up unexpectedly because she had a fight with her new husband, and decide to move into Michaels for a few days in order to cool off.
     
    So, we are sitting there at dinner, in a candle light romantic meal that he has cooked.  He cooked a 3 course meal with a very ambitious dessert which I was dying to try.
     
    He was forced to make the meal, a meal for 3 and not 2, like it was designed.  His mother insisted that I served hi m dinner, even though it was in his house. 
     
    I served the salad, and she said I should eat her share, because I needed to eat more salad.
    Then, I served the main course it was:
    She insisted that I ate half of mine, gave him more, because her son was so skinny, then at my other half.  She stated I should be full up from the starter, and I had most of hers……so you can imagine what happened when we got to the dessert
    We get to the dessert:
    She gasps in horror, that I can not eat a single bite of that, insists on eating my half, and again, gives the other half to him.
    He apologises for his Mom’s behaviour.  Then, at the end of the night, she asks what movie we want to watch.  I point out that I need to get home OT the kids.
    She shouts out – oh yes, you have so many, 6 isn’t it.
    I say 3
    She says once you go past 2 my dear, what difference does it make
    I point out well; I have 3, so there is no 4, 5 or 6 that is the difference.
    She says if it is not 6, then decides that I should stay and watch the movie.  There we are on the sofa next to each other, and she then decides to sit between us, and brings me a glass of water.  Instructs me to put the dishes in the dishwasher, quickly so that she can get the movie started, Gone with the Wind, her all-time favourite.
     
    I do not know what part bothered me more, his Mom’s attitude in general in the dark ages, or the fact that she was treating her son, like a baby boy.  He said nothing the whole time and it just put me off, completely.  I never revealed that to him, I just made out it was because of our bad luck in dating, but I did enjoy the movie.
     
    The conversation changes to our Annual Summer vacation, I question “Really is it that time of year againSo, what are we going to do
    N o idea, Jennifer replies
    Cannot think now, I am intoxicated, screams Christine, jumping up and down.  She is right about one thing she is intoxicated.
     
    Here come Mom and Dad. Mom, Dad, what are we doing for our Summer vacation
    Pa replies, for 25 years, I had to figure it out not anymore, I am retired.
     
    Secretly, I think to myself, Mom is right, this is the mans answer to everything. I mean is that all he knew.  Then it dawned on me is this is going to happen to me, when the kids leave home.  That I will just be old and miserable.
    I started to shudder.
    Jennifer and Christine started to shake for exactly the
