My landline rang at 7.48 this morning - cue palpitations as no-one usually calls that early unless there's drama/illness etc.
It was my mother, calling to tell me that it's my sister's boyfriend's birthday on Friday. I said (in a 'happy' voice), "It's a bit early, Mum. We don't really do calls before 9, unless something's up." She hung up.
She'd previously offered to collect the kids from school and bring them home today as I was WFH. She's just brought them back, and is barely speaking to me. I asked her how she was and she just about managed a "fine" in a funny voice.
Not the first time this kind of nonsense has gone on, but I'd be really grateful to hear how you reasonable people would deal with it.

How would you deal with this triviality?
