Its just a year today since my mother fell and broke her femur, so that we had to come home from our holiday.
We are away again from Wednesday, and everything is in place, so that she is fully cared for.
However, she's determined to make me feel rotten about having a holiday,
and has tried every day over the last couple of weeks to make me cancel.
No way!
This morning she tried again, and told me I had hurt her feelings by saying I wouldn't cancel.
I wish I'd been quick enough to say 'and don't you realise that you hurt me, when you try to make me feel bad about things?'
(This is not about her age; she's done it all my life, but the last time I gave in, I was 21 years old.)
So we're off to Spain on Wednesday, and I look forward to catching up with everyone when I get back.
I may sound harsh, but living alongside someone who never wants anything to be a pleasure is very hard work,
and I'm basically a happy person, despite her efforts!
Catch you later
love and blessed be
