ARGH.
XP has nothing to do with his DC's. Hasn't done for ages, around once or twice a year his sister or mother makes him spend time with them by asking me if they can have them and telling him he has to be there. He spends about half an hour with them then fucks off down the pub. I don't care anymore.
His mother calls me probably once every three months, says she misses the children and can she come over and see them (we live about 30 miles away). I say yes, she says she'll be coming on X day. Day before she is meant to come I always get a phonecall saying she won't be able to make it but will come on Y day and call the day before to confirm. She never calls to confirm and I need up texting her late the night before she is meant to come when she rearranges yet again so I end up planning about two weeks worth of things for when she says she is coming only for ehr not to turn up.
She was meant to be here last thursday. Told me wednesday night she couldn't make it, and that she would come today, but call yesterday to confirm. No phone call. I decided I wasn't running aroudn after her for a change and didn't text her, so now that's two days I've had to make sure I didn't plan anything for only for her not to turn up.
I'll get some excuse about how she had to this for someone and that for someone else, and she'll claim she called but I didn't answer (she always says that she calls me and I don't answer, I'm with Vodafone, I get texts if I miss calls) and try rearranging it all over again.
I've had enough, really had enough, I can't be bothered to keep bending over for her only for her not to turn up. DP says I should tell her that if she doesn't say a day and stick to it she isn't coming at all. Should I?
AIBU?
To say, 'no, fuck off, you're not visiting anymore?'
