Uuaagh.

My mother.

I hate it when she thinks she right. Dios. Mio. I want to go home...

But (and no one tell her, seriously) it's nice to get to lie down a little more often and not to have to get up to change Nicky every time he needs changing and Isandro gave him a bath while I had a bath in the next room and almost fell asleep in it. But now

Maybe relaxing for a few days more will help?

[di_another_day]

Yeah. I want to go home but I don't ever want to feel that tired again. This house makes me nervous though. And it feels like Mum thinks I'm failing at all this. But I miss living with you.

You collapsed? Jesus, Diana! You need to hire a nanny or something.

[di_another_day]

And you need to hire a sponsor.

[onceravenna]

Oh fuck you, Diana. Sorry I gave a shit about your well being there. I'll try to make sure it doesn't happen again then.

[di_another_day]

Yeah, you really give a shit, undermining me like that. I can take care of myself, okay? It was one time! Like I'm ever going to be the kind of mother who hires someone else to raise her son.

And also my comment there shows exactly the same amount of giving-a-shit about your wellbeing than yours did about mine. How many times have you passed out?

I'm sure every mother needs a helping hand from her own mother every now and then. If she expected that just because you're an adult, that wouldn't be the case, that was foolish of her.

It's also foolish to think that it means you're failing in any way. I'm sure your mother went through exactly the same thing at some point.

[di_another_day]

I don't think my mother has ever had a weak moment in her life.

[frosted_lily]

None that she'd care to reveal.

You're not weak, Didi. You're doing brilliantly. Please, don't be so hard on yourself. Your mother does enough of that as it is.

[psychrament]

I'm no good with kids, but if there's ever anything I can do for you...

[appearstobe]

Mothers really can be like that, can't they? You know I can always help you with anything you wish though :)
