Can I just say I realise it is her choice and she had every right to say no, I just feel a bit disappointed as we often help her out and rarely ask anything of her.
My Mum had asked us if we would cook a roast dinner for her, BD and SIL, we cook for her every Sunday and I think she was a bit put out we weren't going to be around. We had arranged to see family we haven't seen for a very long time, we were planning on taking our dog with us but couldn't fit his new crate in the car. I called her out of desperation asking if we could leave him with at her house for 5 hours, she said no, it wasn't fair on her cats as they would have to stay upstairs and they are very old. I said, ok, would you be able to come here for a few hours to watch him, she said no, she had just remembered she had made plans..
My Dad dog sat in the end. We have never left him with anyone before but luckily he was fine.
I just feel a bit disappointed in my Mum, we do a lot for her but she only ever comes to see us & DC if we cook for her which is expensive & time consuming. AIBU?
