Oh yeah, now I remember why I don't enjoy my trips to see my parents as much as I could. Mom is constantly trying to manipulate me For instance, I am getting exhausted and we are supposed to have dinner with my brother (ugh), his wife (ugh ugh) and the twins. Then afterwards we are supposed to go to their house. I do not want to do this because it is always very uncomfortable when we go, and I can already feel a crash coming that will happen about 7:00 tonight. Having to go there will cause me huge stress. Mom tells me I should not be thinking about myself but rather about my nephews. I said that I quit working because I am trying to get healthy and that some days I will be well, and others not. Her response...I can't understand that way of thinking with a huge sigh and then walking away, clearly indicating I am wrong. Manipulate me into doing something? No, but you have now completely pissed me off.
This is on top of driving around today and having to listen to both of them correcting my driving. Jeebus! I've been driving 35 years. Leave me alone.
I miss Karen.
