It all comes down to this: I talked to my mom yesterday, and she told me that she does not want to come over this Christmas/Winter.
At this point I'm just indifferent to it because she has been changing her mind for the last few months and I seriously got tired of it. For a moment there, I thought that my babies will get to enjoy the company of their grandmother for a couple of months. We have not seen her for over a year and a half now. A lot has happened in that time, and the fact that sheer laziness is keeping her away makes me really sad.
I know that getting visa and going on the plane and all that can be frightening, but I still don't understand why she doesn't want to come and see S and J. On top of that I have a central heat that would keep her warm (which was one of the main reasons why she wanted to come in the first place). Then I made a mistake and sent her money to buy a wood space heater and now she won't be cold, which means she doesn't need to come here anymore. Just a tad bit self centered, don't you think?
Anyway, she said that we will talk again in Spring, so I guess saga continues...

November 19, 2008 at 7:15 AMAw, D...that is too bad! And I am sure it is hurtful to you. *Hugs* I sometimes wish that our paths with our parents could be less rocky and more...idyllic, I guess...but we get what we get, and have to learn that they are mere mortals, I suppose. We love 'em...and that is all that we can do!- Domestic Diva said...
November 19, 2008 at 8:01 AMthat is so sad D! I wish your mom would change her mind. Well you have now till Spring to try and talk her into it. I say if she says no again send your lil sis over. I know my mom is saying she probably won't ever come to Malaysia and I just tell her that's to bad that you won't be able to experience all that you have infront of you. Sad but we must go on and live OUR lives. Hugs!!
