I am at My Mother's House.

and I am a bit disgruntled because she....SIGH...brought my five year old nephew home with her to "stay over night." I love my nephew very much, but I HATE having him "sprung" on me for--well, fuck--for an unlimited amount of time, apparently, since i can't imagine he will be going home tomorrow for several hours. And I will probably have to have him swarming all over me all night long in my bed as well.
GRRRR
I have to stifle my annoyance because it isn't fair to my nephew to express the level of my pissed-off-ed-ness. My mother KNOWS I hate having these kids sprung on me. Yet, she will NOT respect my feelings in this respect. Because make no mistake, it is me being mauled by the kid all night.
And she and my brother and his wife wonder WHY I don't come home much any more. Well, GREAT BIG CLUE: I don't like being taken advantage of and being disrespected. Let me issue my own invitations when I have the energy and stamina to do so. Don't foist children on me when I'm already exhausted. When she met me at the door, saying in her cute little girl "I know you will be pissed off but I did it any way" voice, "I have a little boy here with me," I wanted to get back into my car and drive home without another word.
But I didn't want to hurt the boy.
It isn't fair to him.
So, I must suck up my anger and my hurt and try not to show that I have a very bad attitude about this whole affair.
And I strongly suspect that i will not be coming home for another weekend for a VERY LONG TIME.
sigh.
I guess that's all I have to say at the moment except---GRRRR.
