[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 215525"] I told my mom today what my plans are re: going to my grandmothers. Mom: What about Wynter? Me: She's going to stay with L. Mom: What about the dogs? Me: Well, Devon will be here and Wynter can be home during the day to take care of them. Mom: Can't Wynter go with you? Me: That's not an option. :hammer: It's not a break if I'm taking the biggest reason I need a break (Wynter) with me. This is why I didn't tell her last night. I didn't want to have this conversation. I didn't want to have to justify it. I don't understand why it's so bad if I need a break. My mom was a single mom for only 2 years and she went out - without kids - at least twice a week. And my brother and I spent most weekends at my grandmothers. I lived with my grandmother for 2 summers (summer only) during that time only going home for a couple days at a time. I love my mom dearly. I really do. There are just some things I don't tell her - like calling the police on Wynter - and other things where I know I'm going to have to be prepared to either justify it to make peace or tell her that this is what it is and I'm not going to justify it. And at 5:30 this morning Wynter started in with how miserable she is and how I make her miserable. :whiteflag: I'm just so tired. [/QUOTE]
