Can I gripe about my mom?

She hasn't called me at all ever since I told her I was pg. I called her today (my mistake) She's butthurt that I didn't tell her it's a boy. Or that we were going to Puerto Rico. Then she at one point says to me she guessed I needed a tent for maternity clothes. And she was pissed that I told her she, my sister and my niece needed to stay in a hotel when they come down for my shower. I am not up for house guests in my 1 bedroom house. Not to mention the fact, last time she stayed in my house, she literally took a crap on my deck. (She's BSC, and said she was having stomach issues and couldn't make it all the way upstairs to the bathroom)
I preach boundaries quite a bit. I don't let crazy people that literally shit on my life stay with me. Ugh.
Ughhhhhhh

Re: Can I gripe about my mom?
There's just no room in 1 bedroom house. Whys that difficult to understand?
I'm sorry she's being difficult.
At any rate, I'm sorry that happened to you.
...But then part of me wants to get you a little drunk and ask for more mom stories.
I totally thought the mom had pooped on OP's desk. Then I was relieved it was the deck.
Not to hijack your thread OP but this might give you a laugh. My toddler is obsessed with finding poo poo on my parent's deck. I have an older dog that stays with my parents during the day & sometimes he doesn't make it off the back deck to do his business. My son says, "Oh no! I find poo poo on the deck! Get a stick & get it off!" Lol
**loss mentioned**
Back to you - I'm so sorry. I have a grandma that's really strange. I didn't even go to her house at Christmas because I didn't want to hear about how my body wasn't ready to be pregnanct again. Never mind everything my OB has said. I didn't want to talk about our loss with her, didn't want to talk about the new pregnancy with her...some things you just know you shouldn't be a part of with some people in your life. ((hugs))
Mister cleaned the deck. He's seriously the best. The deck incident happened on thanksgiving, so now we go camping in thanksgiving every year and avoid my family.
Put me in the read it as desk club, too. I was relieved to hear it was the deck instead....but now I'm hoping you don't have neighbors that can see the deck....can you imagine looking out your window to see someone pooping on your neighbors deck?
Anyone who has dealt with what you have gets 100% free reign to complain as needed! Hope things go a little easier when they come this summer and I'm definitely glad you won't have the stress of them staying with you!
