Well I just wanted to share with you all that I have a new Job...
:bliss:
I start on Monday & Its for a receptionist in a garage, so quite excited about that.
I know now I will be even more determined to lose this weight, a new me & a new job.
Although me mam is still not speaking to me, see what you guys think about whats went on.
Right here goes...
Last Wednesday me mam took her car for its mot & it failed on a couple of things so she took it to a man who she knew to get the work sorted, but couldnt get it booked in until today so she decided she wasn't gonna drive the car at all, it was nothing major that it failed on & was still drive-able but me mam being me mam didnt wanna risk getting pulled, so she asked if she could borrow my car for last sat, sun & mon when she was on early mornings, I am very funny bout people driving my car, it took me a long time to let Keith drive it even though he is a fab driver, my car is my baby.
Me mam drives a 1.0 litre & mine is a 1.2, so I said yes (me mam has only past her test a year ago & she still feeds the wheel but thats just the way she drives but everyone has their own way of driving) although I wanted to take her out on a practice run to see how she was in the car, so last wednesday afternoon, we went to a trading estate, she got in driving seat & asked if the seat went up in height, mine doesnt (I have a punto) but me mam's car does (she has a corsa) so she started driving the car, before she took off she was over revving the car so I said " you dont need to put your foot right down just touch it slightly" then she said "this feels weird to drive" but she has never driven any other car than her own. She came to the end of the road & she broke, which was like a mini emergency stop, I said " mam u dont need to put pressure on the brake just touch it slightly" she said "its totally different to my car & I am only learning" she isn't only learning though, whats she gonna do stick with corsa's all her life to avoid getting a different car coz she isn't used to them, so then said go into this car park & reverse as the reverse is different in my car to hers, I put my 'tart' button on so she could feel how light the steering goes, (if anyone owns a punto u will know what I mean)..
So she kept revving the tits off my car so I said again raising my voice slightly " mam watch your revs only touch it slighty" then she came out the car park & stopped then turned right & proper revved the engine, it was so loud, I cringed big time, my poor car. So I said "MAM, WATCH WHAT UR DOING with ur revs" I raised my voice but didnt shout. Anyway she screamed "AWWW I'M NOT HAVING U SHOUTING, U HAVE NO PATIENCE, THAT'S IT DOESNT MATTER, FORGET IT. So I said " I wasnt shouting I am just saying watch what ur doing", she kept screaming at me saying I have no patience, she is only learning, her car is different to mine, she was like a bloody woman possessed.
So I drove home, both in silence, got home I went to my room & shut the door, anyway the atmosphere in the house is unreal now.
When I told me dad he said she shouldnt take out her habits on your car, as me mam does rev her car more than I do mine, maybe as mine is slightly more powerful I dont know. I text her on the thursday nite to see if she wanted picking up & she ignored me.
On mothers day I bought her a bouquet & put £20 in her card, I was staying at keiths so I text her happy mothers day, she replied 6 hours later saying thanks, she also gave me the money back saying she didnt want it.
Anyway on Monday I had enough, I slept at Keiths most of last week to stay out the way, monday night I asked her how much I owed her for board, lottery, etc & she blanked me, I said "did u hear me" she shouted "YES" I said "how long u gonna keep this up for" she replied " how long is it gonna take for u to say sorry?" I said I have nothing to say sorry for, you the one who was shouting & revving the tits off my car, she then started to take the piss but in a serios way going "me revs, me revs, ur gonna break me car, Which I never ever said. I just said mam if the shoe was on the other foot & I was doing that to your car then you would say something to me, if you kept revving my car like u did u could of burnt my clutch out. She should say sorry to me.
Anyway I have tried a few times to speak & she totally ignores me. I hate being in the house when she is in as there is such an atmosphere. I got really upset about it yesterday & had a good cry, regardless what has happened me & me mam are really close & have never fell out like this before.
Life is too short I say but me mam is so stubborn & it doesnt take much for her to fly off the handle lately, me dad & keith think the same, she must be going through the cahnge I think.
Anyway Keith is staying tonight so will see how she reacts to him as normally whan he hasnt been over for a few days me mam misses him as they get on really well. If she ignores him coz of me I will kick off.
I just wish I had my own place, I hate living here while she is ignoring me, I have tried so many times, there is only so much trying I can do and I havent done anything wrong thats what I cant understand..
Whats your views?????? :help2:
Sorry if its took ages for u to read..
