Angry most of the day, cant seem to shake my rage. Also feeling a bit depressed about life in general. No more than usual, but it is wearing on me.
The event that got me worked up and soured my day the most was:
I was helping my son with home work when my mom called out to him to start piano lessons.
(It is nice that she does this with him. She initiated the lessons and has been teaching him since the beginning.)
So... When I told her to wait because we were doing home work she flew off the handle and in not so many words said F#@* YOU, do the lessons with him yourself.
We finished reading and I very resentfully went upstairs for the lessons.
At which time she micromanaged every moment, interrupted, interjected condescendingly. (She is very sly, my son is too young to notice now, but it is only a matter of time. Something has to change.)
It took every thing I had in me to complete the lesson. I always am walking on eggshells with her, I never know what will set her off. ARG! What I wouldn't give to be independent.
