Omg her husband is unbearable. Totally narcisistic in every way imaginable.
But me and mom had a great time. She shared with me an awesome secret, when buying fabric for crafts, instead of paying lots and lots of money by the yard, she goes to the thrift store and buys old sheets for pennies on the dollar., brings them home and washes them in color safe bleach, and dries them on high to make sure they are clean. She then makes baby clothes out of them and donates them to charity. She has disney characters of all types. Im so excited! My little ones LOVE disney but I cant afford to buy the clothes and curtains from the store, but now I can!
I am extremely triggered to rescue her from her husband. I think from now on I will time visits when he is not there. This may sound terrible but I cant wait till he dies so she can be free. Ugh thats a terrible thing to say.
Im glad to be friends with this person, but she is a shell of the woman I remember. A shining example of codependency run WILD and her husband isnt even an addict.
Hmmm... maybe sobriety alone isnt the only answer.....
