ESLPod1153

Marc: Who was that??

Carla: It was your mother – again. She wanted to give me another piece of?unsolicited advice?about?housekeeping. She’s called five times this week already.?

Marc: She’s just trying to be helpful.?

Carla: I wish she’d do it without being so?critical. I feel like she enjoys?finding fault?with everything I do.?

Marc: She’s a little?overeager?to help, that’s all. Don’t think of it as her?interfering. Think of it as her giving you?support. She isn’t like your mother.?

Carla: What do you mean??

Marc: What do I mean?! She’s?constantly?giving me advice on how to be a better husband.?

Carla: Well, we just got married and she wants our marriage to be the best it can be.?

Marc: I know, but your mother has a really?sharp tongue?and she?doesn’t hold back. She?butts in?whenever I’m trying to do something to tell me how to do it better.?

Carla: Just like your mother, she’s only trying to help.?

Marc: With her constant?sarcastic?comments??

Carla: That’s just her sense of humor. She?doesn’t mean anything by it. She likes you.?

Marc: She has a strange way of showing it.?

Carla: All of this talk about?mothers-in-law?is?getting our blood up. At this rate, we won’t be able to follow the best piece of marriage advice we’ve received so far.?

Marc: Which was??

Carla: Don’t go to bed angry.?

Marc: Who’s angry??
