Wooo hooo... just called the office that wants me to do 2 baby visits this week (between the 40 hrs. Mon - Wed and the nights Wed, Thurs, Fri) and they want me to do them next week instead!!  This means instead of an additional 4 hours of travelling around between the rest of the 70 hrs work this week I can actually sleep before my night shifts!!!

We went to my parents house yesterday and as always by the time we left I felt like crap and that I will never be good enough.  Also, my mother was complaining because my boys were "playing the piano".... not banging, but plunking out notes.  To my mother the piano is a piece of furnature - not a musical instrument to be played.

No wonder my 13 yr old doesn't like his grandmother much....

Mother's Day for me always ends up being more stressing than anything because of my mother's attitude.  Her house is not childproofed at all, and expected me not only to prepare lunch (after I had to go all day Friday to buy Glatt Kosher stuff for my nephew) but also make sure the baby wasn't getting into stuff while she sat on her duff and expected us all to cater to her. My dad is not much better... he plays stupid when stuff needs to be done so that it's easier just to do it yourself than to get his attention to help out.

Yes, I have 2 other sisters and my nephew is almost 22, so I am the only one with "kids", but I end up always having to do EVERYTHING and I really resent it.,  

Where was MY mother's day??

Sorry for the rant......guess I needed to vent.

Poor thing!  Counseling is a good idea.  You're a good mom!

Oh my goodness...I hope you did not go.  I thought maybe you could have ordered off the menu.  I hope you still had a very good day!  :-)

Hi, Tracy!  :-)
