Guest guest Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 Hi. I don't really post here a lot, but I have some crud going on right now that I need some suggestions or at least support on. For a few weeks, my mother-in-law, with whom we live, hasn't been feeling all that great, but it's been worse this past 7 days. She's literally been in bed most of this time. Which has shot everything all to hell and gone. Because she can't move much, we're doing 99.999999999% of everything. She calls on the cell phone crying because she needs food, or she needs to be told whether she can take such and such medications together, or she just needs one of us to be standing there, taking in her Jewish Mother guilt trip. PLUS, it's TTOTM for me, which sets all three of us off. I haven't been to the gym in a week, I'm TRYING to cook healthy, having made a nice dish from the 30 Minute Diabetic Cookbook, which nearly killed my husband because he can't have " that much " curry powder (a tablespoon in a huge pot of Bombay Chicken stew!!!), I'm so tired my brain hurts, I can't get a half hour where I can just sit with the podcasts and chill out, my temper, already legendary, is almost totally out of control. Every time I put on my headphones, she calls wanting something else and starts sobbing if I don't get to her fast enough. THEN, to top it all off, when I finally lose it and either start crying or yelling, I get " You can't do that. You make me feel like the White Man's burden. Why are you so angry with me? Why, why, why? " So, I get all this shit and cannot channel it anywhere. And we're off to the races. Any words of advice? She's crying again. Grrrrrr. Gotta run.
