@Diane Thank you
From Wikipedia: "In the English language, the word shrew is used to describe a woman given to violent, scolding, particularly nagging treatment, as in Shakespeare's play The Taming of the Shrew. The animals of the same name were believed historically to behave aggressively and with cruelty, and to have a venomous bite; the term 'shrew' was then applied to a person thought to have a similar disposition."
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you think so highly of me.
Hilarious! I thought I was the only one that went through these types of shenanigans with loved ones ;-)
