Re: Sleeping too much

Yes, I live close, that's what is so hard. No I can't cope with even a phone call. It was a brief, not even a half an hour visit last time and I felt crushed by all the problems and the trying to "suck me in" to it all again. I hope I will be able to visit briefly some time soon again, perhaps with hubby would be better. I will have to take him with me. He can do the talking, he's a good chatter, lol.

Hi @Former-Member, found pic of singlet top on the internet (googled flat chest jokes) mar hasn't answered so guess she didn't find it funny. Oh well. Just no energy to be drawn into the mystery, oh no, that's probably why people avoid me. Hmm

Hi @Former-Member

Sorry the jokes did not work on your mother. I liked them. My mother and had different beliefs and characteristics re mammaries and that started off my whole mothering relationships with her as a nanna in a shemozzle. Do what you believe is right for YOU and her. I found the best way when my mother was dying .. was to make a clear commitment to myself and plan & limit but make it regular contact rather than go with her flow .. as there was never anything flowing anyway. I stuck to my plans and saw her enough. Nothing would have changed anyway. It was hard and I was triggered but mostly I was able to keep it together for my son.

You have a long journey and accomodation to worry about .. so it is like me with my brother in Germany .. nothing much you can do .. he is out of intensive care .. so I feel relieved.

Hi @Appleblossom, glad bro is out of ICU, do you think they'll start him on palliative care soon? Guess time will tell. Interesting the similar experiences we gone through. Well done sticking to your guns with a routine with your mother begore she past. I'd like that, maybe, but those words - they still go right to my spirit, ouch, like Bridget I guess. Glad you liked the jokes, I did.
Have you ever seen "Maxine" cartoons? Pretty funny. xox

Re: Sleeping too much

Ha,ha...too bad if she didn't @Former-Member!
I did! As would others.
From all you describe of you, it sounds A grade typical she would.not reply. Just to draw you in, then push you away, so she has control.
He,he..I think good on you for seeing the lighter side of life. 😊
