Re: Far and Away
Sounds like a good plan @Zoe7 I hope you are able to get some sleep tonight.
That was nice of your mum to come over and spend some time with you.
My day has been ok. Haven't really done much except for some ironing.
Had an argument with my mum. Well not really an argument, she said some really nasty things to me so I am ignoring her at the moment. She seems to take out all her frustrations and anger on me.

Re: Far and Away
So sorry to hear that @Snowie I know it is hard to ignore but your Mum's issues are not yours Hon - if she wants to be miserable then that is on her - you don't deserve to be treated so badly 😔💗

Re: Far and Away
She certainly gets to me @Zoe7 and she wonders why I don't talk to her about anything.
I really wish she would move away but she has no where else to go

Re: Far and Away
Maybe it is time she starts looking for somewhere else then Hon - you have been dealing with all this from her for so long and if can't treat you with respect then so be it ...time for her to move @Snowie I do know it is not as easy as that but your happiness is important and whilst she continues to be so nasty to you it is hard to find that happiness.

Re: Far and Away
Unfortunately she has no where else to go @Zoe7 She cannot afford it.
I just have to try and deal with her somehow without allowing her to upset me.

Re: Far and Away
That does make it hard Hon. You would be walking on eggshells constantly having that kind of negativity and obligation around you. It is not supposed to be this way - you have a family of your own and deserve to live your life but having her there is a constant stress ...a no-win situation @Snowie 😔 I absolutely feel so much for you - I could not live with my mother and she does not treat me with the same nastiness that yours does so hugs and hugs and hugs coming your way 💙💙💙💙💙

Re: Far and Away
It does make it hard @Zoe7 I should be used to it by now but it doesn't seem to get any easier.
Are you watching the footy?

Re: Far and Away
Living with that kind of emotional rollercoaster is not something anyone could get used to @Snowie You have enough to deal with without that constant awareness of when your Mum will unload on you - I wish I could change that for you sweetheart 😔💙
Yes watching the footy. Starts in about 20 minutes. Going to give the fur babies their biscuits early so I don't miss any of it ....and Clover is already inside sitting on the couch next to Tobes waiting lol

Re: Far and Away
Sounds like you have a little cheer squad there @Zoe7
I hope you are all able to enjoy the game. Think I will be in bed before the footy finishes.
At least I don't have to get up early to take D to work!
