"I Remember Days Full of Restlessness and Fury..."

[psalm_onethirtyone]

So I've just realised that this entire week, I've barely seen my Mum. She's been working all week, from nine to four. But then she picks Waen up from soccer. So she's home around five-thirty. Then she has charting and paperwork to do until dinner. Dinner is eaten; we watch a movie sometimes; sometimes she's too tired, and just goes to bed. I never see her.

And today, she took Waen to a doctor's appointment before I woke up. Waen has soccer at three-thirty, so all this time - from twelve to three-thirty, Waen is going to be able to eat lunch with Mum, and spend three and a half hours alone with her, having her all to herself. Do I sound bitter?

Damn it, I want my mother. I'm not angry with Waen; I'm angry with Mum, because she should know.

And da' is away, so I shall go away, and wander around the house opening doors. Then I shall finish writing this letter to a person I don't really like. Then I shall go out to the park and swing for a little. I don't know. Perhaps I shall come home and cry.

I want my Mum.

*hugs you tightly*

Grab her by the sleeve tonight when you're feeling a bit calmer, and explain all this to her. Mothers can be surprisingly absent-minded.

She's driving me to drama class to-morrow, she said. Shall talk to her then. Thanks.

*hugs and pets* Ditto what Abby said, ask her when you can spend some time with her and mention you've missed her, sounds like she's wrapped up in a lot of other things and probably more than a bit scattered.

She likely is. Soujin is being Impulsive.

I just don't understand why if she comes home and complains about her job every night she keeps it. Okay, I do understand, but-- Wah.

My mom's not home a lot either...it's very frustrating, isn't it? Hopefully she'll realize what she's doing to you, and be able to spend some time with her.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

It is, a lot. *huggles back* I hope your Mum spends some time with you, too.
