My mother is visiting

[livinitup]

And she's aaallllll about doing things exactly like she does at home ... And helping me in ways she deems necessary, and in none of the ways I ask or need.

So, instead of meeting back here at 5 pm for dinner - like we agreed, so we all could eat, and take DD for a movie at the school. She was late because she was buying bread and salad at the grocery store. Well, I had fresh bread and salad. And I don't need you unloading the dish washer I NEED YOU SITTING AND EATING DINNER.

My thoughts are with you at this time of need.  lol

Lol. My mom was crazy helpful when she was here after the baby, but we had stuff like this too. Like, she likes to rest her spoon IN her yogurt cup while eating, and our spoons are too heavy to do that without flipping the cup. So she went out and bought plastic spoons. And then instead of throwing them away, she'd leave them by the sink to be washed. I have a newborn! I love mother earth but I'm not washing disposable spoons because you can't set your spoon down on a napkin!

That is what my mom does too!!! It makes me so, so crazy. I know she is trying to be nice but, holy shit, it irritates me so much.
