Open Eyes

Thanks. That sums it up perfectly!

What I forgot to include was because I didn't give a definitive reply to the question about when I would visit again, she decided she wouldn't see me again. Her "farewell speech" wished me well in everything I am doing or going to do.

Have now recalled the many times over the past 12-18 months that I've been accused of various things and been threatened that she was going to tell my brother. On one occasion I did call her bluff, saying fine. That wasn't the answer she expected. Of course, she dismisses all of these incidents as "not relevant".

I think the comment "damned if you do and damned if you don't" describes this very well!
