oh I could just scream at the moment. Relationship with MIL has always been rather difficult, but I thought it had got better. Today she's upset that I didn't tell her immediately about a meeting with school to get son statemented (special needs) so they can get much needed funding for all the one-to-one support he's already getting. Honestly it just wasn't on my mind when she phoned. Especially when she was interrogating me with really specific questions, avoiding answering my general chatter, then couldn't get off the phone fast enough as soon as she got her answers. It wouldn't be so bad but I thought things had got better recently. She even stayed over at our house for the first time in 13 years of marriage.
And just to make matters worse, when she finally did speak to me about the meeting (as opposed to the snotty e-mail she sent this morning) I got the distinct feeling she is embarrassed and ashamed about our son's differences.
You know what, I'm not even going to bring up the past upsets. I typed some of it out then deleted. They belong in the past. Isn't this bad enough?
