(no subject)
So, Keara's teething now. She already has 4 teeth, 3 of which came in without much fuss from her. The 4th one she fussed some on, and now she's at the point of being downright cranky, so I'm thinking there's more than one getting ready to come in this time around. She won't go to sleep with us holding her during the day so we usually have to put her in her crib and walk away. I hate hearing her cry, but that's the only way we can get her to take a nap. If we just let her stay up, she gets really fussy and cries all day long. It's a no win situation, I guess. I want her to be ok, but I know that I can't hold her all the time while she's like that. I feel bad, but what else can I do?
In other news, apparently I only call my mom when I have a problem, so I've had to refrain from calling her. The reason for this is because it wasn't to me that she said this. It was to my cousin Breanna, who also happens to work with me. We went to my great uncle's birthday party a couple weeks ago, and Bre told me later that mom walked up to her and invaded her personal space to ask her if I talk about her at work. Luckily, Bre stood by me. She told my mom "No, we talk about Patty." (Patty's our boss.) Anyway, then she went on to tell Bre that it's pretty bad when your three daughters walk into the courtroom and turn the other way so they don't have to look at you. (We didn't look the other way; we just didn't purposely look in her direction.) And then came the line that really pissed me off and pushed me to my limit. Mom told Bre that I only call her when I have a problem. That's because any other time I've ever called her, I've felt like I'm having to force her to have a conversation with me. And the only time I've called her with a problem was on 9/13 when I started hurting with what I thought was gas buildup, but there's a possibility that I'm having trouble with my gall bladder. Mom had hers taken out. I called for some advice. Her stupid drunk of a husband kept saying that in 8 months the pain would go away. (In other words, he's saying I'm pregnant again.) Not possible with mine and Adam's current living arrangements. Will spare the details. So I've refrained from calling my mom because I'm at that point where I want to say if she's got a problem with me then she needs to say it to me, not to other people. Unfortunately, I have this gut feeling that all these emotions that I'm trying to work myself through are going to blow up at my papaw's on Christmas.
Anyway, just wanted to update on Keara, and to vent. Right now, I think this is the only place my mom can't get to trying to be nosy about me and my sisters and how we feel about all this.
