Do take care.
Thanks Rive. My husband does what he can to support me right now. I’ve cried to him and he’s been supportive and loving. I suppose the whole situation is hard on both of us, given my father’s recent death and his mother’s extended visit. He’s trying to balance taking care of her and me.

But yeah.. unfortunately I had to lose my cool over his mom’s treatment of me and stand up for myself. It’s too bad it got to that point. And it’s too bad that I don’t wish to spend time with her while she’s still here. It’s a real shame. It causes a certain level of discomfort for me in knowing there’s conflict between us. I don’t like conflict.

I’m glad to spend time with my own mother. It’s comforting and healing for both of us.
