1 00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:03,120 Speaker 1: You're listening to the FITZI and whipp A podcast. 2 00:00:03,279 --> 00:00:06,080 Speaker 2: What about this one twenty four to ten? Is it 3 00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:08,760 Speaker 2: wrong to give the in laws a set of keys 4 00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:09,400 Speaker 2: to your house? 5 00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:14,960 Speaker 1: Oh? It's great, top huge, cool. This wouldn't be your decision, 6 00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:17,880 Speaker 1: would it be your partners? Well that's the start. 7 00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:20,919 Speaker 2: That's where the first blow up happens, because in an 8 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,919 Speaker 2: argument that took place, she said to him, how dare 9 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,280 Speaker 2: you give your mum and dad a set of keys 10 00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:32,880 Speaker 2: without consulting me on the issue, because from there, they're 11 00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:36,720 Speaker 2: basically turning up at any time. So she got home 12 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 2: the other day, mom was in there. Mom had noticed 13 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:41,440 Speaker 2: that there was some mail hanging out of the mailbox 14 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:43,479 Speaker 2: and thought I'd better bring that inside. I was just 15 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:45,920 Speaker 2: walking past. So she comes home with the Mum's in 16 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 2: the kitchen just putting the mail on the bench, So 17 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:51,520 Speaker 2: that's kind of innocent. Then a week later comes home 18 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 2: and thinks, oh, there's a couple of drink glasses out. 19 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,440 Speaker 2: I think someone might be here. Looks in the backyard. 20 00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:57,280 Speaker 2: Mum's sunbaking. 21 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 1: Oh how do I say to him? 22 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 2: Stop your mum and dad from coming over uninvited? 23 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,760 Speaker 3: What a horrible feeling, I know, you know when you 24 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 3: get home from work and it's the best feeling knowing 25 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 3: that there's no one there. You can just sit on 26 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 3: your own couch and do your own thing. 27 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 4: Feel like Gary might have sent this to you. 28 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 5: Did he he sums up my life? 29 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 2: Did they turn up the whole time? 30 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:29,640 Speaker 4: So my parents, all of my family members had keys 31 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 4: to our last place. Now we're in a rental suit 32 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 4: and brother. But when we were living near Mum and Dad, 33 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,040 Speaker 4: Carrie would get up in the morning and come out 34 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,280 Speaker 4: into the kitchen and I was obviously at work. Sometimes 35 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 4: Mum was there making. 36 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 5: The kids lunches wild all days and garage the same 37 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 5: morning and then just go straight back and have his 38 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 5: forty minute shower and every so often, mostly on the weekends, 39 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 5: but you just see a head in the garden pop 40 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 5: up and it was Dad. 41 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,280 Speaker 4: God, Dad was just out there doing gardening. We had 42 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 4: no idea he was like he was anywhere. 43 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 2: Nearby, not even a heads up. 44 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 1: But Dave's pruning this morning. 45 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 4: No, nothing, he was just doing his business. And that's fine. 46 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 4: But in a previous relationship, I remember coming home and 47 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 4: not being able to find the teetoels one day in 48 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 4: the kitchen and calling my ex and saying where have 49 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 4: all the tea tawls gone? Like this is so bizarre, 50 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 4: and it's like, oh, mom came over and rearranged the kitchen. 51 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 4: She'd let herself in. 52 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 2: The glad Rap's not there anymore. That would be so frustrating. 53 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 2: And I told you we all love we all love 54 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 2: our in laws. But I told you about my situation 55 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 2: where I have the daytime hondays and the nighttime undays 56 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 2: that I sleep in the old nighttime ones. 57 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 1: Then which they run around the house. 58 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 2: I'm trying to get away. Lisa's mum came and did 59 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:44,359 Speaker 2: the washing and saw the old undies threw them out. 60 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 2: Was oh my god, how did you feel you had 61 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 2: permission to decide whether my undies were finished? 62 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 4: On public service? 63 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 2: You do nor ever judge my under dirps.
