I can just imagine how you must feel. Sometimes our kids like to tease or make fun of us, not realizing how it affects us. I’ve often said, at various times, “Some day you’ll be the age I am now—if you’re lucky.” 

 

The 1993 jumped out at me. I have a daughter born that year. She’ll be 28 in February. She recently became engaged so it’s all wedding talk now! She’s very artsy and crafty and wants to convert our large shed into the wedding vunue. She’s acquired barn wood and is going to apply that to the interior walls, in addition to some tin along the bottom. The barn look seems to be the thing for some.  She wants to make it look very elegant but yet have that rustic feel. I’m thinking: What have we got ourselves into?! Ha!

 

Take care, Dear... I hope your son will learn to become more understanding of you... 


He won't change..its the way he is...he called this morning and was upsetting me...so I hung up...and went about my day..Woman Wink

I think you are over reacting.  You know you have the problem and you know that your son gets frustrated.  You can't expect him to remember, a daughter would.  A son, not necessarily.  So, stay calm and when he visits, before any conversation begins say  "now keep in mind that I still have short term memory issues so forgive me if you have to remind me about something".  


If she has to remind him of that each time he visits it sounds like he’s the one with the memory issues! 


Lol...exactly!  I'm ok, just have to ignore his comments!

 @emmygrace   Thank god you pulled through & are with us today. Your son should be grateful that he still has a mother. Shame on him for not appreciating you. Maybe you should send him a note & remind him that you're not forgetting on purpose.He needs to have more patience with you.
