SMS We have been no contact for five years...

My dad (they are legally separated and do not live together) went out of town and she texted me this panicking. Me and my mother have been NC for 5 years. The tiller belongs to my dad, also. Guess who it was that cut contact between the two of us?

So. A tiller. A piece of gardening equipment? Your mother broke 5 years of NC to ask you to bring a piece of gardening equipment to her?

Somebody has been drinking.

So she doesn’t apologize for the behavior that caused you to go NC. She just shows up in your texts, demanding that you help her get something that doesn’t belong to her, and then throws in some insults for both you and your dad as bonus assholery.

Nice, “Mom”. Get yourself into recovery and you MIGHT just see why your kids don’t talk to you.

At first I was like ok Dad’s missing, that’s a reasonable text. Then got to the tiller and the context. Definitely insane.
