I'm pretty hurt. Am I overreacting? (long)
So DH is going out of town from Saturday to Thursday. His mom is graduating college. It's a huge deal and a big surprise that he's showing up. So anyway, my mom (who lives 4 hours away) and my sister (who lives 8 hours away) were going to take turns staying with me (I'm on bed rest). My mom wanted to bring me and my cats where she lives, but this won't work. So today she tells me she's not staying at all. I am very hurt and I wrote her this email.
Brett = my DH
Michelle = my sister
Sean = my 1 y/o nephew, my sister's son
Stewie = my very big, heavy, pain in the butt cat
Hi Mom. I know you're going to believe that everything I'm about to
say is because I'm hormonal but I don't agree. I feel like you're mad
because I won't go to Bend with you. It is simply an impossibility. I
am not allowed to handle Stewie and with your RA you physically will
not be able to control his freak out. Also, I know that my doctors
will not approve of this. I appreciate the sentiment, but it is not
possible.
I really thought you were going to stay a few days with me. Staying
here Friday night doesn't do me any good because Brett is here. That
is very nice of you to offer to drive him to the airport, but sitting
in a car is one of the few things I can do. I am very nervous to have
him gone for 5 days when I am not allowed to do 95% of what I normally
do.
I feel slightly used. You and dad stay here whenever you need to for
business, but now I need some family help. Brett is very nervous about
leaving now and is asking me to beg Michelle to stay the whole time.
But she can't bring Sean so that won't really work. I always love
having you and dad here, but it's always on your terms. I don't
understand why you can't stay Saturday night and part of the day Sunday
if you're going to be here anyway doing trainings. It just doesn't
make sense to me.
Anyway, I'm just feeling a little hurt and I know I will dwell on this and hold a grudge unless I tell you how I'm feeling.
I love you.
WDYT???
