Bruhhhh I can't have one day go perfectly fine...
So today I spent a good chunk of it hanging out with a friend I hadn't seen all summer and had a great time
We bought books, shirts, had lunch and stuff and it was great seeing them again before they left for college in a week
Anywho I come back home and all seemed fine, I went to drop my brother off at his school band practice and my mom was doing some yard work and there didn't seem to be anything I needed to do so I hopped on a call with another friend to play some minecraft before I had to pick up my brother again
A few times throughout my mom called me from outside to help her real quick with a few things. Stuff like moving my car so she could reach a spot she wanted to clean, telling me to tell my sister to go to bed, just small stuff
Mind you im watching the time throughout all this so I know when to leave to get my bro
Anyways, about 10 minutes before I was planning to leave my brother i apparently missed a call from my mom who was telling me I had to go get my brother since his practice had already ended
I was too engrossed in the game atp so I miss the call and didn't notice (i keep my phone on silent but im chronically online so I don't usually miss calls or texts, I was just more focused on my computer atm)
My mom comes in the house screaming at me for not answering her call, when mind you ive been answering all of them up to that point
I thought i was able to calm her down, said goodnight to my friend, and left to get my brother
When I got there he did not infact just finish his practice early but had only finished just after I had arrived so I would've be fine even if I left a bit later :[
So me and my bro come home and the moment my mom sees us she goes off yelling about how all we do is have fun and laze around when she's the one doing all the house and yard work and ya know the whole parent spiel of 'i work so hard and all you do is stay on your phone' type of thing
But I just wanted to vent, everytime she's screaming at us I just get tired cuz there's no good way to reason with her when she's just attacking us out if the blue
And i really thought I was having a good day :(
I know it sucks when parents are at us all the time and not to sound like a boring old adult but maybe it would have been nice if you had asked her if she needed help with anything and not just assumed she didn't and went on your game. Ash x
