Wedding Woes

I feel awful, but

I am thrilled my mom is going home today. Flame away.

I can't take anymore of her debbie downer shenanigans. She's been here almost a week, and it has gone from her being my normal, fun-loving mom to her being the most miserable person in the world.

I understand she's feeling sad that she isn't going to be here and be able to see Mr. Loverman as often as she'd like. But come on. That isn't my fault.

She was a wreck on the drive home after my shower because my friend C (who granted, is a certifiable moron and says things without thinking. She doesn't have a mean bone in her body.) said something to her along the lines of how my guest room isn't going to be her room anymore, it's going to be Alexander's.

WTF? My mom was CONVINCED that she said it to be cruel, and spent the rest of the evening in her room sulking.

I'm very sympathetic to her situation to a point, but after that, I refused to give into the crazy.

Re: I feel awful, but

  • is mom coming back to help with the baby?

    btw, what "situation" is she in?  that you don't live next door/upstairs?

  • Wow.  So is your mom more concerned that she will miss out on new baby time?  Or that new baby is "replacing" her?

  • your mom needs to calm down and understand that she is not the only long distance grandmother in existence.
  • My friend that just had the twins with all of the shower drama?  Her mom came just after the babies were born and hasn't been home yet.  Three weeks and counting.  Maybe your mom can do that.

    I just a friendly gal looking for options.

  • That is the exact situation, hmo. That I don't live within walking distance. They've lived in PA for the past 7 years, and she feels very isolated. But again, it's something she did to herself.

    And that's exactly right -- she's not the only long-distance grandmother in the world.

    She is planning to come when the baby is born to help out, which I really appreciate. My dad and grandfather will be with her, so they'd have to stay at a hotel anyway.
