...but I get on very well with my son-in-law and here's an example of how much.
I was on holiday with my daughter and her husband (I'm a widow), and my daughter and I were on the beach in bikinis. My son-in-law took his wife's hand and kissed it, then continued the kisses up her arm until he reached her shoulder. I said "I bet you wouldn't do that to me" and he said "Well, I can't resist a dare" so he did lol! I was taken aback as he had only so much as pecked me on the cheek up to that time, but I took it as a bit of harmless fun. Certainly the most memorable experience of the holiday! Has anyone else any funny stories about mothers-in-law and/or arm kissing to relate?
I once shot my father-in-law in Reno for kissing my arm. Luckily the judge shared my view regarding arm kissing in public but, alas, he did make me apologize. Arm kissing is not all lollipops and rainbows. It sometimes reveals the raw underbelly of this naked city that we call existence and stretches our sanity like a turbo charged taffy machine recklessly set on puree. But to each his own. Of course, this is my personal opinion. I welcome other points of view.

Reason: none
My husband gets along fine with my mother...when we go to visit my mother the two of them frequently stay up all hours talking, well after I have gone to bed. I think it's great.
When my wife and I were dating there was a family gathering at my bachelor pad. Her family. My future mother in law saw my bedroom, which was neat as a pin. The bed was made and everything else in the house was in place. A little later on she mentioned that I should keep the heat turned up a bit. I asked her if she was cold. She said no, but perhaps the naked girls lining my bedroom walls could be. Oh!
After we were married the in laws visited with friends of theirs. While outside 'Mom' asked what kind of flowers those were by a stone wall. I honestly didn't know. They're some kind of perennials. Without missing a beat I said they were Hemophilias. She turned to their friends and exclaimed they were Hemophilias. Laughter ensued.

I have a great MIL (she's the only one I have had) we gotton along grat for close to 50 years. She's been fun and a good person to party with. Unfortunately, her health is starting to fail (87), but she keeps an immaculate house and she lost the love of her life last year. I will do just about anything for her, even the dingy things she wants done.
