My dad pushes my buttons! Short rant......... sorry!

God knows I love him but, sometimes I really don't like him.

He's one of those guys that takes the things that you did wrong in your life..... sticks them up in his hair and leaves them there until he has nothing better to do. Then, when you least expect it......... POW! Throws one up in your face! OK, so I'm not perfect..... never claimed to be. I'm twice divorced. I choose to learn from marrying aliens from another planet and move on. Yesterday, I stopped by my parents because I just spent over $300 on work on my truck. It was steaming. He asks the stupid obvious questions...... no, I didn't just wash it, drive through a lake, etc. I ask him if it could possible have anything to do with the fact that I just had the thermostat replaced but, no he doesn't answer that question. He does somehow get on the subject that I am getting chunky and need to loose some weight. Tells my daughter that maybe she should look for a real job and help support the family....... hello! She is 15! UGH! My kids first and foremost job is school! Now today, mom called for us to come over for dinner. I just told her I didn't feel well. I love my mom to death but, I can't deal with my dad today.

 

sorry! I had to blow off steam.......
