The thought was nice

Casadena · November 13

Dear Prudence,

My mother-in-law “Pam” fancies herself a talented painter. She isn’t. Like, Not At All.

That didn’t stop her from giving me and my husband a butt-ugly portrait of us for our anniversary last month that makes us look like something out of an acid trip. If that weren’t bad enough, she insisted on hanging it up in our family room right after she presented it to us. My husband now expects us to live with it, since Pam comes over regularly to visit our 4-year-old, citing that it would be too much trouble to take it down when she leaves and put it back up before she comes back over. The thing is a fucking eyesore and I want it gone! Can I just tell Pam what I think of it already?

Move it to another room. When she asks, make something up. "I didn't love having a portrait of us over the mantle; I just didn't like looking at myself every time I sat down to watch tv."

This. Find something else somewhere else and buy it and hang it on the wall.

Then work on the way to bean dip out of this in the future. "Oh thank you but we'll find a place for that. Come in the kitchen for a snack! "

And then your H needs to work on his mom.
