While I was making DSs lunch the phone rang literally about 10 times in a row (something my mum always does, I know it's not an emergency) and when I rang back after finishing the lunch, my mum started shouting and ranting at me about "this is Mothers Day, but I don't suppose you know that??!?" - kicked off by me saying I may be able to come round and collect something sometimes yesterday, and didn't have time in the end. She then gave off about her Birthday and Christmas - both of which I gave her a card for, we just cannot afford presents. We can afford something small, but then it's almost worse than getting nothing at all - like 2 years ago when I spend ages making her up a basket of flowers, with ribbons round the handle and it was just looked down on (my sister sent a big bouquet in the post) (and I was being induced that evening). SHe then just stopped talking on the phone, so I hung up. My sister used to get her nothing when we were childrem, I spent hours handmaking cards and flowers but now my sister can afford to bung her a few fancy bunches and I am the "bad one" out of us. FFS, my sister earns more than my DH, lives at my mums still and my mum pays her car insurance, gym membership and all the bills... I am just sick of being the one who gets the brunt of all the abuse. She forgets it's Mothers Day for me aswell, she just behaves like a spoilt brat.
