My Mother
Background: I know my mom has issues, and I don't agree with some of the ways/things she did with us girls growing up. But I can't change that, and I've accepted her little "quirks".
But she's really starting to piieeessss me off. I may have mentioned it before (can't remember) but she told me when I was dress shopping that she'd help me pay for my dress. That's cool, right? Well, when I found the dress that I bought, she told me she'd give me $200 towards it. Awesome- I go ahead and buy the dress.
The problem? I have yet to receive one flipping penny from that woman. She's always been stingy, but she TOLD me that she'd pay me. The last time I asked (around Christmas, when the pocketbook was hurting) she told me she'd pay me when she got her tax check in. Yeah....I'm pretty sure she's gotten it by now. And to pour salt in the wound, she just got sattelite internet (with a dish that cost about $600 from what I understand) AND she just bought her nephews (they're 5 & 6) a battery operated four wheeler. Which had to have been at least $150, if not more.
Now, I understand that they're kids. But they're kids, and it won't last forever. Niether will my wedding day, but come on. I'm her daughter.
Sorry, I just found all this out and I'm aggravated. So I'm just venting.
