My mom is 80. My brother is special needs, she's always sending him money and I get money sent to me a couple times a year because my mom wants to be fair (drives me crazy)
I tell her please stop, she doesn't have to worry about me like that and she knows it but she's mom
Mom: I sent a money order for your birthday anyway, spend it on new tires
Me: Mom, I'm 55, I don't need you to send me money, please don't somebody is going to steal it eventually (jinxed!)
Mom: Its already on its way I just mailed it, let me know when it comes
2 weeks later, no money order, it's vanished in transit
I had to tell her it didn't arrive so she can file a claim , now she's upset and angry. An 80 year old woman has mastered the art of anger
She doesn't know I put the money back into her account, I'll tell her after she's resolved the "loss" with her bank
Unbelievable
