Page Scrawler Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 (edited) Dammit, Mickey. The kid saw an episode of Treehouse Masters, and now he hopes "Santa" will put a tree fort in my backyard. WTH? Even IF the zoning allowed it, which it doesn't, because neighbors, we don't have any trees on our property suitable for building one. (Yeah, I already checked with the damned Zoning Board.) What does Mickey want me to do, buy an undeveloped piece of land from the city, and build a tree house MILES AWAY from the in-laws' place?

There's already at least 12 inches of snow on the ground. Along with the zoning laws and lack of any quality trees, the weather just isn't favorable. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead of telling him to think about doing it in his parents garden, even though you dont want/need such a thing in you garden, you still looked the possibility up... you'd do just about everything for that kid you'll make an incredible dad someday Pager 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And so he can have more excuses to visit. And despite the prank he just pulled on me, I love him to pieces. He's a great kid, and if I had a son, I'd want him to be just like Mickey.

Popular Post bignick Posted November 18, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted November 18, 2018 Good morning!!! Looks like you had a French night. Cool! I'd like Italian night next time. From what I gathered... Santa is going to build a tree fort, but he's going to gain so much wait by eating French foods, that he'll need strong fairies to lift him up (or roll him down) and as a reward he will give us a mini Mickey. Best Thanksgiving ever!!! See you around. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
