MIL digs again!

phone rings
Me - "Hello"
MIL - "Hahaha! Did I get you out your bed or something???"

Every time she calls.
Any time of the day.
Today she called at 12:50pm.

Not even a "hello", just a really disgusted laugh then an accusation that I've been lying in bed all day (nothing wrong with that though lol). But it's every time I answer the phone to her.. Maybe I just don't answer it quick enough but I don't just sit by the phone waiting for it to ring.

My MIL has made digs about my job before, as I just work part time. She liked to make comments about how I have "all this spare time" & "need something to do with my day", even though I still work 25-35 hours most weeks.
It always seems to me like this is just another one of her little digs at me, like I just lie around all morning doing nothing. She forgets that I still have a house to run & meals to cook, as well as a social life!

Rant over lol.

My dad used to fall asleep every single afternoon/ teatime and have a two hour nap while we were kids but God forbid we got up after 8am! He could never see that it was exactly the same
