Hi Poppa ,
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job , I wondered why that section was roped off . Aunty has redid Emil and Poppa's and they compliment each other and the guests inter-mingle . I told uncle Gil I was so proud to manage such a gorgeous place such as this . He smile and said I deserved it .
Aunty has started work on the Bristo for Uncle Sal's grandson . He and his family should be here soon . Gregg is handling the kitchen .
Lynn said bring her some cake .

You do so deserve it my dear...when your aunt has to leave town or help out in the business , you always are there to to carry the load . That I so admire about you , you are a very valuable asset . Like your aunt and dear mother you just jump in .
Out of the seven restaurants here in the hotel , casino we have 5 that is ranked #5 and you and Emil top the list . and Buffett's is ranked #4 . Not bad is it not ? It will be 4 restaurants in the family when the Bistro opens .
Stay as say as you are , everyone says you act like your aunt .

Hi Aunty and Genie ,
ReplyDeleteGenie I hope you had a wonderful time at your daughter's wedding . I bet you cried , you didn't lose a daughter , you gained a son .
Here's the latest questions , have fun .
Dear Maxy,
I read the letter from "A Concerned Daughter and Mom -to-Be .'' You could be ver helpful in reducing stigmas about brain disorders b genl reminding readers that her mother isn't bipolar , but has a bipolar diorder --- just as we wouldn't say that someone is cancer , but has cancer .
My neuro-psychiartist friends are now using the term "brain disorder" because the latter perpetuates the notion that's it's not a physical illness . But the brain is also part of the body . Thank you .

Dear Maxy ,
Due to financial problems , my husband and I recently had to move into my in-laws' home . Not a day goes by that I am nott chastised or put down for the choices that led us to this situation . My ''frivolous spending habits" seem to be the sole reason we are here . They totally disregard the illness that kept their son from working , his alcoholism and his gambling . Those subjects never come up . I took out loans to pay rent wnen he couldn't work and still paying those off .
My mother-in-law treats me like a child . My three teenage children have started telling her the things they used to tell me . My feeling are so hurt . When my husband lost his job , our insurance went with it , so I can no longer see my psychiatist . I am disable and would have a hard time leaving . I have no one to turn to . What can I do .

Dear Maxy ,
A friend of mine is known as someone who always flakes on plans . She cancels , forgets or is late , and she seems to think the world is waiting for her most of the time . However , when someone cancels plans with her , she badmouths them and expects everyone's else sympathy . Is there any way to show her she exasperates us the same way when she bails on plans ?
It Works Both Ways
Dear Maxy,
I am 18 , and I baby-sit frequently . Whenever certain parents text me , they use sterotypical "text speak" like "LMK" or "2NITE" or "GRT" --- I cannot even understand it ! It is incredibly in formal , and I have never communicated with them using and slang or lingo . Are theytrying to relate to me by texting me this way ? Should I continue to decipher , or is there a polite way to tell them I will understand if they message me normallyy?
