Of course, you do! The thunder helps cover up the sound of your family fighting.

My Mom is a talented painter who sells her complete inventory at art shows.

Just what the word needs. Another “successful” hack painter.

Yesterday I took a nice walk through the park on my way home.

We’re tired of hearing about your delightful life in the first world. Why do you go out of your way to ignore the plight of the have-nots?  
I’m going to ask my Magic 8 Ball if I should get my grandmother a paint-by-numbers kit as a gift so she can entertain herself during her hospital recovery.

Of course you are considering something that she can entertain herself with because we all know you aren’t going to spend a minute of your precious time at her side visiting with her. I do have to compliment you on the use of the magic eight ball though, good to see you’re finally using some common sense.

I’m feeling very stressed out today, I wish I could just relax.

Problem solving may be an option. Have you ever considered exerting a few calories of brain power to improve your life? I didn’t think so. Have a grand nap.

We are going to celebrate my daughter’s and my daughter-in-law’s birthdays together. I love them. Aww.

Wow. You couldn’t bother with making two parties. I’m glad to see that as much as you love your family, they still rate below your one true love: being a gigantic cheapskate.

What the hell was that? Maybe you should stop trying to push your happiness down everyone else’s throats.

I never made a shopping list and I need to.

We just put on a World Cup game, we recorded it and luckily, none of us heard the score.

We are all very certain it doesn’t take much to blow your mind.

I’m hungry, I’m going to have an early lunch.

You must have started at the crack of dawn to get it done early because we know you don’t do it often enough.

We might have a family game night tonight, fun!

The fact that you posted here leads me to believe you have the internet and could relieve your confusion - [let me google that for you!](http://www.letmegooglethat.com/?q=chicken+drumsticks%2C+garlic+honey+lemon+recipe)

I like Burt’s Bees Peppermint Lip Balm.
