Love: Today, I woke up really early before my mom so I could make pancakes...

By Anon - 10/05/2009 12:36 - United Kingdom

Today, I woke up really early before my mom so I could make pancakes for Mother's Day. I placed everything on a tray and even picked a flower, had a card for her and took it to her bedroom. She said, "You shouldn't have, pancakes are fattening." She took one bite and fed the rest to the dogs. FML

Today, my mom had me and my little brother make pancakes for breakfast. I had to let the dog out of the house to go do his business, so I had my little brother wait there and told him not to touch anything. I came back 5 minutes later, and there were cracked eggs in the almost-done batter. FML

Today, I made my mom cookies for Mother's Day. My brother took all the cookies to work as a snack, because I didn't specifically tell him that the homemade "MOM" hearts weren't meant for him. FML

Today, I woke up and decided to make my mom a special Easter breakfast in bed. I pre-heated the oven to bake the sausage just the way she likes. Guess where my easter basket was. FML

Today, I woke up early and spent hours baking and icing a three-tier cake for my friend's eighteenth birthday, which is this evening. I just found out my mother threw it in the compost bin because she's on a diet and it was "tempting" her. FML

Today, I sent a $120 bouquet of flowers for mother's day. When I called tonight see if my Mom got them, she replied that they were still on the doorstep because she "didn't want the dogs to get excited and start barking" when she opened the front door to bring them in. FML

Today, I found out that my mother organized someone to feed my pets because I would be out of town overnight, even though I told her that I would be back in the morning and they would be fine. They overfed my dogs, with one of them eating over 10% of her weight, and now she may have bloat, which is often fatal. FML

Today, I wanted to do something nice for my mom. So, while she was sleeping, I cleaned the whole house for her and even made her breakfast. A few minutes later, she came downstairs and yelled at me to keep it down because she was trying to sleep. FML

Today, it's my mom's birthday. I woke up at midnight to be the first to tell her happy birthday. When I awoke in the morning, I decided to bake her a cake. Little did I know my whole family was going out to lunch to celebrate. I wasn't invited. FML

Breakfast time!

Today, I decided to make an almighty breakfast of fried eggs and bacon. I couldn't find anything to flip the eggs with so I used a red spatula that my sister handed me. As I was finishing a delicious fry up, my mom came downstairs and asked me why the cat litter scoop was resting in the frying pan. FML

Your mom seems like a bitch! I'm sorry. *hugs* I hate how people do the whole "I can't eat this cause it's fattening.." bullshit. So annoying. I'm sorry she did that to you.

Well, at least the dogs got some pancakes... They probably don't think that your mom is a huge bitch. But, I do. What a bitch.

Aww!! That's sooo mean...and ungrateful :(. Why do moms think they can do things like that to their kids? That reminds me of what happened when I told my mom I just e-mailed her the animated Mother's Day card I made for her on Photoshop. Me: I just e-mailed you your mother's day card, so be sure to check your e-mails :) Mom: (In a really sarcastic tone) Thank you, dear. *fake smile/annoyed smirk* My sister: No, it's REALLY nice, I saw it!! You're gonna like it. Me: Yeah, I made it on Photoshop, I didn't get it off the internet or anything. Mom: (less sarcastically) Thank you, dear. Me: Why did you sound so sarcastic? :/ (I just said this cause she ALWAYS DOES) Mom: (Incredulously) Hey, I said thank you! (Turns innocently to my dad to my dad, who's standing a few feet away, unsure about whether to get involved) I just can't win, you know? *Starts complaining to him about how I should be helping her clean up (which I'd been doing for the last hour) instead of sitting at the computer. He agrees with her and gives me a disappointed look* Me: But...it only took two seconds to send!! x( Ughhh...*I retreat into my room*

Wow, because she couldn't show a little appreciation for your hard work and the fact that you actually care enough to make her pancakes, then go to the gym... I mean seriously it's Sunday, what else is she doing? I say stop doing nice things for her until she learns to appreciate what she had.
