I have ishoos with my mother, that I keep to myself.
DH and I have not been out together in a very long time and we have had cabin fever.
My mum just constantly goes on about how tired she is from working and how she does so much for everyone, so we don't ask for anything.
I asked if she could mind the kids,
she made a big issue of saying how much she had on (I kept saying OK leave it then)
so today (day we are going out) she texts asking to borrow hundreds of punds till friday (with no please)
i say yes.
even though i'll have to withdraw it from my everyday account as my savings are gone now (she may still think i have some??)
then she says 'are u still going out?'
i say i think so but DH has a headache we'll txt u later after hes took some meds...
she says 'well you have to let me know soon cause if im minding the kids i cant visit your gran and she wont have had a visitor at all today'
so then i feel bad for going out and gran not seeing anyone,
she then calls and says we should go but it just means she'll have to go to my grans after shes minded the kids even though she'll be sooo tired after work and minding the kids....
which as well as making me feel shit AGAIN, means she will be expecting us back early as she needs to be back to give my dad the car at 10pm
so if she wants to go to my grans we will have to be back even earlier??
we dont drive so will take us 40 mins to get to cinema.... and we wanted something to eat.
Now our first 'night out' in about a year just seems like a pain in the arse, time restricted, downer :(
