Meet The Mother In Law

Our next door neighbor is Teresa's mom Karen. Some funny stuff about her.
Let's start with her cell phone. It's funny how often you call her and
it's off. Why do people turn off a cell phone? Isn't that why you have
it? To always be able to get a call. Friends confirm this is a common
problem with their parents.

The other day, her phone was ringing. So unfamiliar with the ring tone,
she thought it was the ice cream man and busied herself trying to keep the
kids from hearing it so she wouldn't have to buy anything! And charging
the thing is a challenge too. “ It won't keep the charge” she kept saying.
Turns out plugging the power chord into the ear plug does not work. She's
great though ... Makes good meatlaf and lasagna ... And is pretty good as a
neighbor. The other in-laws live two streets over. More on them later.

You have it wrong. The cell phone is for her convenience to call you, not for you to call her.
