Well, I did it. I called my mom today to wish her a Happy Mother's Day. Phone calls to my mom aren't easy. I never know which mom I'm going to get and honestly, they all frustrate me.
Sometimes she's angry at the world. You see, everyone in her life has done her wrong and that makes her see red. Even I had the nerve to grow up and leave the house! Can you even imagine? HA! She really has said that to me... a lot!
And then there's the mom that doesn't really know she's on the phone. She doesn't know much of anything. She stumbles over her words and the next day has no memory of us ever talking. Just a few weeks ago she called me with her feelings hurt because we hadn't talked in a week. I just giggled and reminded her of our conversation the day before.
Today when I called I got the sobbing mom. She cried and cried. She said it was because her foot hurts and she is in so much pain. If that is true I feel sorry..........
MY MOM JUST CALLED ME AND ASKED FOR TINA! JUST NOW! Who the heck is Tina?!
Back to my moms foot... Long story short there is always SOMETHING wrong with my mom. I'm pretty sure she is just fishing for pain pills.
This has been a long and bumpy road. Sometimes I want to take the first exit and never look back. I could never really do that. She is my mom. I love her. I hate her. I have compassion for her. I have bitterness towards her. I never want to speak to her again. I call her the next day.
