Today my sister and my mum went into the city to see a dance and she told mum last night that she had picked out her outfit. So, of course she didn't and when she wore the clothes this morning they had chocolate on it, they were crinkled and mum threw an absolute fit. I jumped out of bed, made a mess of my own room and hers trying to find the perfect outfit and eventually did it with fifteen minutes to spare. I straighten her hair, then add corkscrew curls through it. I put on a touch of blush and mascara to her face and she's off. Mum screams, "be a help and hang the washing out." I replied "Ah help? Gosh that's something new!"
Then as she leaves, it's not a thanks for doing this today, it's "where are my god damn keys, look for them will you!"
I took my other sister to the movies today and i bought her some popcorn and made the day about her.
No thankyou's at all, not from anyone of them.
I am not saying i wouldn't have done it, but just once it would be nice to feel appreciated. Both of my sisters (dressed by moi) looked great and i always to what mum says and i get left at home. She takes sister number 2 to a dance in the city and i am stuck at home. She takes sister 3 to the park with her friends and i am stuck at home.
I cleaned out my room today aswell, i felt like it was just something i had to do. I came downstairs feeling accomplished and saw dad and sister number 3 playing computer games together. Have i forgotten all the times when dad and i had time together or was it just never there. I know i am a little bit older now, but we just don't talk, do anything. It makes me feel sad because i feel like even though i get on with my parents most of the time and our family does things together, i don't have much of a relationship.
It's not that i'm expecting any kind of appreciation or acknowledgement...It just would be nice, a change.
