Critizing
I've always felt like Moms are suppose to be supportive, the kind that makes you feel like you can do anything and offers support or suggestions to help you with that. My mom and I worked for a couple of hours working on these canvas's for Hannahs baby room. I thought they were pretty good, not perfect but good and Hannah loved them. I showed them to Donna and she asked, are you going to white wash over these? You could put a ribbon around the edge to hide the staples. I don't know why but it really upset me, it seems like more and more lately she has been mentioning things that aren't done right when I didn't ask her opinon. I was telling her about the plans for wood floors & a new kitchen for my house soon and she asked if we were going to drywall over the paneling and move a door in the backroom. 2 things we had never talked about and my mom actually helped me paint over the paneling not too long ago so that it wasn't noticeable... and move a door that is a HUGE amount of work inside and outside because we would have to re-siding the whole outside of the house to make it match. Neither one of those things bothered me about the house, once upon a time she mentioned replacing all the interior doors in the house, that would be like 10 doors or $400 for things that are in decent shape. I would like to assume that most of that is because she doesn't think about money like a normal person does. But than she does things like told her 21 yr old daughter that she was getting fat, Jordan didn't ask her opinon and Jordan probably weighs 130lbs (would love to hear what she actually thinks about me since I've always weighed more than that and am getting a food baby) It just makes me feel like lately I am being EXTREMELY judged by her for my every move, and living just an hour away if I stay with Blake she will always be in my life, which is another story in its own...
