Things have been going ok for the past several months but my parents are acting like a bunch of jerks again.
My mother is helpless. This past year since her heart problems she's does nothing but sit. She will take her pill bottles and tell Will and Hayden what the medicine is for and how much it costs. Come on!!! They're kids.
Well, they forgot my birthday completely...nothing...no card...no phone call. Whatever!! Finally Will mentioned it to them about forgetting mom's birthday but they looked a little shocked and told me they were busy that day getting a new sump pump installed that day they forgot. Then mom says...well you have enough things anyways. DH spoke up and said well, it would have been nice to call her. It really hurt her feelings especially since she does so much for you. I'm glad DH spoke up in my behalf.
The past few days I'm not feeling well. I'm having a hard time breathing and just feel yucky. Well, they thought I said I would fix dinner for them tonight. Nope...I don't recall saying this at all. Why would I say this as I don't feel good? They're all pissed off over it. I don't understand why they feel I must always cook for them. I know my dad gets tired of eating take out or microwave meals everyday but that something that needs be discussed between my mom and dad their food issues.
My dad works daily and they're 63 years old. Surely they can figure this out themselves without getting me involved. I don't want to cook nightly for six people. They don't treat me like a daughter but a short order cook. They eat say thanks and then leave. Plus my dad is a perfectionist and if my house is the least bit messy he complains about my housekeeping. I work 50 hours per week, raising two kids and 7 1/2 months pregnant. It's not going to be perfect! Maybe I'd like someone to cook for me. I'm tired.
I'm sure the preggo hormomnes are making it worse but geesh...I'm sick of being treated like this.
