Sour Milk and Spoiled Juice Boxes

Saturday, Went to a basketball game w/ dad, his friend and his girlfriends kids.. Total 4 kids ages 8-10. They were so loud and smelled like sour milk and spoiled juice boxes.. yuk!  Dad did not tell me there would be kids involved. Worst, we rode in one vehicle w/ them and it was nightmare.. Dad never apologized for putting me in
this horrible situation. The mother would not allow me to talk about death, bad words so conversations were all PG. She asked why I’m not a grandmother yet. That totally put me in the wrong mood…

That grandmother comment was passive aggressive on the part of the girlfriend. Was it dad’s girlfriend or dad’s friend’s girlfriend? Not so clear there.

I figured they were the friend’s girlfriend’s kids, because if they were the dad’s girlfriend’s kids, presumably the mom (and whoever is getting this email) would know that they exist and their ages already. And that they smell like “sour milk and spoiled juice boxes”. LOL!

i don’t blame her…what a miserable afternoon. i think at her age, i’d have just as strong an aversion to sour milk kids, if not stronger…

hilarious nonetheless!

IS anyone else missing the irony here - she complains about being with children all afternoon then puts in the jab about not having grandchildren?

Advice - if your mother is that miserable spending an afternoon with kids then you should wait as long as possible to have grandchildren!

Sour milk? Yuch. Why would they smell like sour milk?

I like the fact that she’s miffied because she couldn’t “talk about death, bad words” =0)
