nah. bugger her.

What's she done?

No. YANBU

Having a rude and demanding parent myself I can totally relate to the need to be 'out' occasionally.

Are you OK though? You sound like you may be having a bad day.

ComeWhineWithMe · 03/03/2009 12:52

She is just her usual rude self . Hasn't done anything today she is just demanding .

It will be either

"How do you spell ?"

"Have you wrote me that letter?"

"Why is my computer broke?"

Or some other random rant all without saying hello first or asking after me and her gc at all.

ComeWhineWithMe · 03/03/2009 13:22

OP posts:
Niecie · 03/03/2009 13:46

Don't have guilt - have fun!!!

Or at least relax.

Helen31 · 03/03/2009 14:35

to hear, that must be a trial. YANBU, other than to feel guilty about it! Could you go out somewhere for a nice tea and cake? You sound like a saint given this is something you have to ask us about!
