Had a talk with my nan today. Seems like the conversations always just drag on, but I wouldn't say anything about that to her.
Asked how I felt about school; if I liked my course or if I would rather be working or in a different course. I have no idea. I don't really know how I feel about any of that.
Talked at length about her concerns about me and my mom. How my mom has never been happy, and how I take after her in some respects. I guess the apathy and dissatisfaction could be seen as coming from her as well.
My mom complains a lot about how she isn't happy. Always has, and always flips around on how she feels. My nan describes her as a yo-yo. But lately she's been complaining about how this new place isn't really hers, since it isn't her house. I can see why she would be upset about that, if it weren't for the fact that we've been living in apartments for most of our lives.
She also complains about being bored. She has no hobbies. The only way she knows to pass time is cleaning and decorating. She complains to both me and my nan about boredom. It's also why she keeps going back to the old place every weekend, since that is something to do, even though she really shouldn't be going back there as much as she does.
Apparently my mom also complains to my nan about how I never talk, or go out, or seem to notice what goes on around me. I may not pay the most attention to what's around me, but I sure do notice things. I'm a lot like her, in that I'm quiet and prefer to stay indoors. Even then, she doesn't trust me by myself anyways, so why would she want me to go out when she also does not want me to go out? I can barely take care of myself. I still don't know how to cook. My mom tried teaching me about a week or two ago. She just sat me down at the table and talked rather rapidly about how to cook eggs, beans, and sausage.
My nan also talked about my dad, and his relationship with my mom. About how he was the only guy she was ever with that was remotely half-way decent. Which is true, he's a good guy. Gets a lot of undue shit from everyone.
