And then it was Monday.
Been kinda down for the last couple of weeks. Off and on. When I'm busy, and too distracted, I'm alright, but the moment I slow down a bit, I start falling back into the crappy mood. Still having issues with my Mom. She's pretty much not calling me at all. And when I call her, she's quite bitchy.
Makes me want to avoid calling...which I do until my conscious gets the best of me. Then the dread starts creeping in....and I drag my feet for days, until I can't stand it any longer and I call. Today is the day I'm calling....and I am so not wanting to do this. And I feel really guilty about that.
Sigh....I just **know** the tone of voice she'll use to answer the phone...and I can predict the kinds of things whe's going to say, and what they all mean, and that "it's all my fault"...not in so many words most of the time, but eventually she'll get to that. And I just hope she's distracted by some other issue going on, and that I won't be the target.
Anybody have "mom issues"? Any suggestions?
And so far today:
coffee, 140 calories
bottle of water, 16.7 ounces
Wow Calories at around 1100/day NICE!!! Good job. I know I sure have mom issues, but I am half a country away so I don't have to deal with it as much anymore. But there are still days when I dread picking up the phone. I know Im no help!
ReplyDeleteGood job on the counting calories, how is the coffee going ? did you try the new stuff yet ?
ReplyDeleteOh, I have mom issues too ! I can totally relate. I don't go over as much as I should, I try to call every few days however the tone in her voice oftens puts me in a not so good mood. If you want to exchange email addresses, just leave it in my comment box (I will not post it). I think we have more in common each time I read your blog !
