Thanks to facebook I now know that my mother is moving back to San Jose this week with help from my niece.
shit.shit.shit.shit.shit.
Anyone want to make a bet on how long before she starts contacting me to pressure me into letting her see the kids because they ‘deserve’ a relationship with her?
Hoo-frickin-ray.
Blarg. *hugs*
No bet.
Stay strong, keep her at a distance, and remember that your children will be the better off for it.
I am glad that Facebook serves a function, even if it’s only a metaphorical tornado siren.
Batten down the hatches.
“Just say No”
I’m sorry. 🙁
Yargh.
Sucker bet…
Speaking of suck… Yeah, this does indeed suck. Stay strong, you know you’re doing the right thing by NOTletting her have a relationship with the wee one(s).
Wait, you mean your mom didn’t have your niece mention that she’s helping her move and give a little nudge about “getting to know the grandkids”? Hmm. Either your mother is improving or your niece knows when to keep her mouth shut. I’m going with your niece knowing when to keep her mouth shut.
Does your mom have your phone number? If so, I give it until the evening of her move-in day.
If she doesn’t, I’d expect her on your door step 3 days from her move-in day.
you know…houses or apartments burn down all the time… just sayin’
