I just called to say hi and for a chat talked to Dad for 10 minutes - lovely conversation, Mum came on phone, Hi how are you? then followed 5 minutes of her moaning about my sister, I can't help her with her relationship with my sister, so I hmm and ah from time to time and tell her that I can't answer the various questions cos I don't know, she is getting her self wound up about my sister not confiding in her. So when she takes a breath I say - anyway mum, I guess I ought to be getting the boys ready for bed. What it isn't even 6pm? says mum, Well anyway I will catch up with you in a couple of days says I.
She goes off the phone all huffy and I come off the phone cheesed off when I picked up the phone I was really happy it feels like she has sucked the life out of me!
I know Dad will call me this evening to tell me off for upsetting my mum. I am 34FFS why does she get to me like this?
Sorry just needed to get it out - DS's are too busy being children to give a stuff (thankfully)
