I thought that you might enjoy a new book that just came out entitled, The Daughter-in-Law Rules: 101 Surefire Ways to Manage (and Make Friends with) Your Mother-in-Law! by Sally Shields. That's ME! I would so love to send you a copy! Anyway, please come visit me on the web at www.TheDILRules.com. You are an angel for putting up with your MIL and I think I have some strategies that might give you a chuckle or two. <BR/><BR/>Keep up the great blogging.
