So my mom just had my uncle re-do her kitchen cabinets and the backsplash. She asked if Sandy and I would stop by to look as she was so excited at how great they looked. So we stopped..they did look better and we did the "ooooing" and "ahhhing". Then we were discussing our makeover at our house and the paint colors we had chosen and my mom said it sounded more like ....well...I can't even type the nasty reference she made as it is so totally offensive....but suffice it to say that we made a hasty retreat and left. And then I proceeded to have my feelings really hurt and a mixture of wanting to cry and punch her in the nose for being so darn mean.!!!!
I am a "glass half full" kinda girl so I keep hoping that people are going to do the right thing but I'm realistic and I know I'm gonna have some disappointments. And I also know that my mom is a mean, self-centered person (not just from this incident but YEARS of mean-ness) but somehow I STILL keep hoping that she will be a real mom and at least somewhat nice to me. I'm a likable girl...yet...she just can't manage it.
Ain't it just a real bummer though? Oh well...as Sandy said afterwards...then mom doesn't need to worry about alot of invites to our place since she thinks it will be so tacky.
Just needed to vent...sorry for the "downer" post. On a happy note, we got our new furniture friday and it all looks fantastic in the LR. WOOHOO!!

Re: Why is there always a hater...??
I am sorry your feelings were hurt. Family can be so tough sometimes.
Enjoy your new furniture!
