Well, since you mentioned a FIL in your past, I am sure you realize the importance of being able to get along with your in-laws. I had one failed engagement before I married,and that was part of the reason. Her dad was right about everything! It didn't matter what anyone else said, he was right! Just a few months before we were to get married, everything blew up. I bet there are still tire marks in the street in front of her house where I burned rubber leaving that night! Never saw or heard from her again. Guess I made the right decision.
I met the girl I married when I was eighteen, she was nine. I went to church with her grandfather, and was visiting his family one Sunday night and her family dropped by. He told me later that this little girl informed him that I was the man she was going to marry. We had a chuckle, and as time went by, I dated several girls, but nothing serious ever developed, until the one I mentioned above. A few months after that breakup I saw this "little girl" one day. By this time she was seventeen and "all grown up". Wasn't long before I began finding "reasons" to drop by their house and say Howdy! Her Dad and I got along great. Her mother was, well,---- a mother! I finally got the nerve to ask her for a date, and the rest is history. We had forty three and a half years together.
Speaking of getting along with your in-laws, let me throw this in and I'll shut up.
Her Dad worked second shift, got home about 11:15 or so. That was her curfew. On Saturday nights, after a hard week, Ed liked to kick back and relax for an hour or two. He had an old enamel dish pan that he would pop full of pop corn, set out a cold six pack, and many was the night that my fiance (by that time) would go to bed and leave Ed and myself sitting in front of the TV, drinking beer and eating popcorn! Like I said, he and I got along great.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo. ... [Read Article]
