That's a crazy amount on your plate @Shaz51. I hope your father-in-law has a good send-off and that your Mum feels lots better. And that you find a few moments of peace amongst it all.
BTW Did I kill Friday Feast? Where is everyone?

I've had a really tough week. Thanks for asking @Former-Member
My Mum has been hassling me a LOT.....firstly she was actually screaming at me on the phone on Monday because she rang to double check about the monthly coffee with me and my husband......to cut massively down on contact........
My poor son wants to move in with me but he's using a lot of green and he also rang my Mum to visit her and he didnt turn up today so I've had my Mum on the phone screaming away.......shes now using my MI to tell people that I can't take care of him...............
Also, it's been hard because my husband has been hard work ...poor guy.......

What's the full moon situation? I've never been a great believer in the influence of tides and moons (although you'll get some emergency workers swearing they make a difference) but we have a lot of people have tough weeks here.
That behaviour from my mother completely valids your decision to control the time you spend with her @PeppiPatty. Hold strong.

oh, that is terrible @PeppiPatty 😞 I'm sorry things aren't going well with your son. When is he meant to be moving in officially? Hope that he is able to settle down a bit. Try not to worry over what your mum says, your actions and care/love will say far more than any of her words will, no need to battle those. Hugs!
I'm exhausted here, very wrung out and very overwhelmed tonight. but will get through.
Is lovely to 'see' you @Mazarita , have missed the conversations here!
