I haven't seen or spoken to her since the other day. Yesterday, on my way to my Aunty's house, I saw my Mum on the road. I was driving my Granny's car, and as we stopped at a red light, I saw her stopped on the other side of the road. I beeped the horn at her. She looked over, I smiled,the light changed and I carried on driving. I wasn't sure if she'd seen me, cos I wasn't in my car, and her facial expression have me no indication. So I called the house today, and was having an over long conversation with my youngest sister. My response was mainly 'yeah' cos I didn't understand some of what she was saying. She said 'do you wanna talk to mum?' But I said yeah, before I realised what she said...by which point it was too late.
So my Mum comes on the phone, I didn't know what to say really, so I was like have I got any mail? She was like yeah 2 letters. She seemed ok, so I was like, did you see me yesterday? She's like 'yeah I saw you grinning your teeth at me. Why're you grinning for? To show me you were with your beloved Grandma?'.....so we're clearly still being dumb. I was just like Mum, I'll talk to you, cos you're on some hype ting!' and hung up.
So WHY are we still here? Simply cos my Mum likes to forget she's a grown ass woman, and instead prefers to act like she's in a damn playground. As far as I'm concerned what happened the other day is dead now....over with....hence why I spoke to her! To me life is too short to be fooling around with stupid disagreements, but clearly my Mum doesn't think so.
I spoke to my sister, and my Mum brought a dumb arguement to her earlier in the week as well. My mum told my sister that I didn't do anything for her, so she didn't care if me and her wasn't talking. So now I'm like you know what, fine. If you wanna prolong this totally unneccesary disagreement then fair enough. It's whatever then!
I'm expecting a package that's being delivered to her house one day this week, and I've gotta give her money, and collect money from my sister, so I'm gonna go down there on Friday, and if she's still showing me bad face, then I'm done trying with her. I've got my own stuff going on, and I can't be dealing with foolishness too!
Again, if i've missed something, someone please tell me.....cos I really can't make sense of this at all!

I dont know what to day for your mother besides she needs to grow up.
That whack attitude is for the birds.
Your mother sounds like my mother. I swear the older we get, the more I feel like I'M the mother because she can be so immature. You knooooooow how I stay dodging the woman!
My mother tells me all the time she's never speaking to me again (problem is that she'll forget and then get mad because she hasn't heard from me).
She has hung up on me so many times that I'm desensitized to it (I just call her azz right back!).
She constantly talks about me to other family members...saying I done forgot where I come from, I'm too uppity for my own good...whatever. At this point my family knows my mother is out of her mind and just having a "Jane moment"...as we like to call them.
I tell you all this to say...she IS your mother. Sometimes us kids have to eat humble pie (even when WE are in the right) just to keep peace with these chicks!
I wonder if there's something going on personally with your mom that you don't know about. Maybe that's the reason she's acting retarded. Not an excuse by any means...I'm just wondering why she's trippin...
@ Ms Lady - isn't it though? My Mum clearly missed the memo!
@ Ms Diva-I've tried...but everytime I do, she slaps me down. I'm not feeling it..there's only so much trying one can do!
@Monie- My Mum is just hyped! Every now and then she'll act like her head gone, and she starts acting dumb. I'm usually her target!
Okay so...the first time I tried to take mum's side...but now, she's pushin' it. [LOL]
She obviously harbors some ill feelings toward your closeness with your granny...
Not quite sure why if you're just as close to her as you are your grandmother but it's evident something BIGGER is going on here.
Why do mother's do that?! Carry on forever about something rediculously stupid!! And even when you bury the hatch, they still want to act like you killed their cat. Give her a hug and tell her to get over it, thats what I do..lol
i will never understand it tom gurl, and neither will you, so maybe we should just stop trying all together and let them be. there's gotta be a way 2 peacefuly coexist. atleast u guys are talking...
