[quote=Anonymous]On my birthday earlier this week, I: 1) Visited my mom in assisted living, where she didn't know what day it was, and was advised she is probably in her final month 2) Spent half my day getting her meds changed (on phone with hospice, the facility, etc.) 3) Was informed by DH that his car needed a $3500 repair 4) Got only one birthday call from my dad who then suggested I could make an effort to come to him for Thanksgiving, knowing full well I'm bedside with mom (he later apologized) 5) Worked a 10-hour day, since I'm primary breadwinner and covering mom's costs 6) Finally came home to abysmmal school test results from two of my kids (7 and 9) - like, below 20th percentile Every day seems like some version of the above, and I feel like a child for being so bothered when it happened on my birthday, which I don't usually even make a stink about. Help me snap out of it![/quote]
