Moving Day with my Mom...

So right now I'm in the car with my dad, driving my stuff to my new appartment. My friends had planned to meet me there to help me unpack because there is t an elevator in my new place.

We told them wed be there by 2, and it's now 4 and we still have an hours drive. Why? Because of my mother. She refused to let me help, took complete control, and did a terrible job. She packed the van she rented so that nothing fit properly and then started getting mad at me for it even though I never left my apartment because she didn't want me to help. My sister and boyfriend are mediating and even they are pissed off... Well my boyfriends just confused because it doesn't make any sense. And my sister pulled me aside and said if I step out of line my moms just going to dump my stuff and leave, truck and all... AND SHE WOULDN'T EVEN LET ME TAKE HALF MY STUFF!!!

I'm already really anxious and stressed about my friends helping, especially since they don't have to and one of them is on house arrest and needs to be inside after 730. We're going to be three hours late and I'm really worried they're going to bail or get mad at me and blaim me. I think they're already annoyed. And it's not an easy move because its three narrow sets of stairs in a really old building. I'm pretty sure I will have to haul some stuff up and through the balcony.

I don't know what to do. This is a disaster and I'm freaking out over how much my friends opinions of me are going to change (because really they're more my boyfriends friends than anything) and I'm really close to breaking down but if I show any sines of stress or a bad mood moms just going to leave and it'll all be pointless.

Also most of the guys are construction workers or movers as a job and I'm worried she's not going to let them help, because she is in that kind of mood right now.

Help.... This is all I have to cling to for sanity right now...

Hello Switch! Hugs! Sorry moving day is not going well. I hope it will be over soon without more turmoil!

So sorry about your mom. Hope it going better.

Good grief! What is it about your Mom? Why does she want complete control? Isn't this YOUR moving day? Shouldn't YOU be in control? And why didn't she let you out of the house, or do anything?

I don't get it.

Thanks guy so much for the support. It was really nice to be able to know pc is there. thank you. And sorry I couldn't reply until now.

Yeah my mom can get like that when she's stressed. I don't work well with her. We ended up finishing the move at 11pm, and all my friends had had to go home.

Oh well, it's done now. I kicked her out when she came to try and help me unpack. I couldn't take that.

Def sounds stressful. Sorry about your day. However, it sounds like you still have a lot of people who care and are there for you. Treasure that.
