I'm still marveling at how my mother can move instantly my mood, this time from 2 (which was most days recently, a bit frustrated about my own uncertainties before starting to look for freelancing jobs) to 5 simply by mentioning how she still 'worries' about me and pities herself that she couldn't prevent me from becoming a transgendered person and 'living 'that' lifestyle', added by the detail that she managed to choose the hottest part of the day to do that, and I'm really bad with this hot weather.
I can pity and understand her a bit, because she's doing all this because of her own long problematic thoughts about problems at her work that may make her quit - and for good as she's 75 - but she still could work if not personal problems with a particular superior of her. But I can't support her - did before that - if her own 'inability' to stop me being tg is involved in discussion - obviously, but still frustrating.
Ok , may be 4 now as I wrote all this... sorry for bringing it here...
