Yes its getting that I dread going
Last Sunday I got home and burst out cryingdon't look for post I didn't post couldn't .
DS arrived last night so mum might not be as bad tomorrow.
She just seems to find things to say that she knows will upset me I need to snap at her but I am not the arguing kind since chucked hubby out around 17 years ago
I'm even more convinced that our mothers are related tweets. I spent the first 50 years of my life doing what I could to try and please my mother but failing miserably. Sometimes she'd be sweet as pie and I'd be overjoyed, thinking I'd finally worked out how to get her to love me but then she'd turn around and make another barbed comment and I'd be devastated all over again. She's always blown hot and cold so I'd never known what would set her off from one day he next.
For all those years I longed for my mother to love me unconditionally and unreservedly, the way all mothers are supposed to (at least in story books). I felt an awful sense of guilt and shame about not being loved by my mother, after all everyone thinks all mothers love their children so persisted in believing it was something wrong with me that made me unloveable.
It wasn't until I studied children's literature and learned that the reason why books are full of wicked stepmother is because it is too dangerous and painful for a child to contemplate their own mother hurting them - after all, at a primitive level, as a vulnerable, dependent child if your mother rejects you then you die. Once I accepted that it was NOT my fault, that actually my mother is incapable of loving ANYONE in the way I wanted (and needed as a child) it became a lot easier.
I no longer seek my mother's approval for anything and only see her a couple of times a year out of duty. She is a miserable, bitter and twisted old lady now and I pity her but I refuse to let her horrible comments get to me anymore.“A journey is best measured in friends, not in miles.”

Morning Enterprise, and everyone else:D
I don't know if that would work as I haven't tried it. I found that the method I use works for me, and am loathe to try anything different in case it doesn't work. :eek:
Too tight to risk losing an online apg cos they tend to be on the larger side;):rotfl:

No you loose the APG (assume you mean the e vouchers you used to pay for it?) I lost about £30 during cobra days, but nothing you can do about it unless you want to flag your account up
Sounds like its a bit hit and miss, I had to cancel a whole order this week and got my e-vouchers back on the account in 24 hours0 -

First i went to this page to check my phone was backing up in the first place
Settings>icloud>backup and storage (scroll to the bottom for date/time)
Then i deleted everything off my phone by
Settings> general>reset>erase all content
Then when i switched phone back on it prompted me to set up as a new phone or to restore from a backup. I just selected yesterday's but the option was there to restore from earlier backup
All depends on if you back up and how far back those backups go. I was lucky that i realised my mistake almost straight away
There is a way to do it with itunes but i haven't connected itunes for years so i didn't really look into itApparently, everybody knows that the bird is [strike]the word[/strike] a moorhen0 -

Maybe if you cancel it, it goes back. if you refuse it the vouchers do not.0 -

I didn't refuse mine, they had no stock of the cobra so just got the fillers and had used e vouchers to pay for all but about £2. The card got credited what I had spent on it but not the e vouchersBe thankful for what you have because it could all be taken away tomorrow.;)

You never know we could be related my dad never knew his side of the family . When my nan (dads mum) left her hubby he could have had more kids. My dad was born in Newcastle under lyme and i have never known if any more family on his side0 -
Debating if to buy mum a poppy for Christmas off me and Poppy . I never know what to buy her ....
I always buy my mother the cheapest possible present I can because whatever I get will be wrong so no point wasting my time or money trying to get it right! I spend the money saved on dh and my children who always appreciate what they're given.“A journey is best measured in friends, not in miles.”
