Am utterly pissed off with my mother.
About 9 years ago, just as my brother was taking his GCSE's my mother got her boobs done, costing £7,000 and making it clear that brother was now to go out to work, no question of supporting him through A' Levels or Uni, but the money was there to lift saggy tits
Anyway she's always been quite proud of her body and has put a photo of herself on facebook wearing a very skimpy bikini and joking about her white bits. Well somebody commented oohh haven't you got a great figure for 53 and she responded oh it's all about keeping fit and dieting
Well I couldn't resist and comment "oh is that the secret lol"
To which the orginal person put ha ha have you had your boobs done X ?
So all of this is quite amusing and minor, but mother phones me for the first time in 3 weeks to rant about my comments.
Now as a side to this I had a miscarriage 3 weeks ago and the first thing my mother wants to talk to me about is this ? My husband has been out of work nearly 9 months, my mother was meant to be having our older kids for a week in the holidays so DH and I could have a few days to ourself to get stuff done in the house, but she's "forgotten" about this and is deliberately ignoring any reminders about it.
This latest rubbish just seems like the final straw, we don't seem to have a relationship, she just wants to have the DC's on display at family occasions and makes no effort to see them any other time too.
AIBU to just not bother any more ?
