Sat watching fireworks at midnight when DS2 (18) called me. His friend has got 'more wasted than he's ever seen anyone' and can I go and pick them up? Friend doesn't have mobile with him so can't contact parents. Friend can't walk, has been sick and got kicked out of party for being so drunk. Luckily I don't drink so was able to go and pick them up. Got him back to his house, took ten minutes to get out of him which house was his! Lights on but no answer. Took another ten minutes to find out he had back door key (I'd been trying it in front door for ages like an idiot housebreaker!). DS2 and I more or less carried him round the back (through alleys). Got him upstairs to his room when his mother appeared. I explained what had happened and said I hadn't thought she was in as hadn't answered door. She just shrugged and looked annoyed because we had walked muck all over her cream hall carpet. We weren't really in a position to stop and take off our boots as we were trying to manhandle her 5'10" ds up the stairs!!
She did not say thank you at any point!
I don't expect a sainthood or anything but a simple thank you would have been nice. The whole event took about 45 minutes from start to finish. He was covered in vomit. It was not the most pleasant way to start 2013!
So AIBU to be a bit narked with her?
