thank you

I agree - I wish it was like that. my hubs thinks she helped... LOl which is comical. -shrug- The only reason she even changed one diaper was because she woke up way before me, so she could beat me into Scott's room, all so she could change him from his PJs into day clothing and pick out his outfit. She left this morning and I am happy, but my hubs is sad. I am sad for him. I am glad that we will one day live close enough to her that she never has to visit us again. or if we do not, she will be staying in hotels - I cannot do this type of visit aging. We already promised her a Christmas visit, but I am limiting it to one week and my hubs HAS to be off every single day she is here, or she can't be here. She is jsut too stressful. And does not really like me. she does not listen to me when I talk and I hate that kind of treatment.

Sorry.. I have said too much. lol I am trying to think positive happy thoughts about her. She's not perfect and she has a crap ton of baggage and stuff she has never deal with in her life... but now I have to have strong boundaries. I just hope it will all work to where everyone is understanding that boundaries are ok/acceptable. Some people say thy are with words, but when the boundaries happen they are offended or simply ignore you when you are not present (like my MIL does).

But I am about 85% normal now, so I feel recovered for regular things and I feel mostly fine. :D I hope you are ok - how is your week?

Thank you so much for the gifts! That was super nice of you! ❤️

Thank you - it is just what it is. I have ben busy entertaining her and slowly feeling better. My husband mostly is sleeping or at work and does not see what she does at all, in any way. So one day I will have to sit down in therapy with him and chat it over. -shrug- I agree that moms who do that are not good/nice. I just like it when people are straight forward and honest.

btw I really love your HA!
