Role reversal

I'm not sure exactly when how or why my role and my daughters roles have reversed, but I think it has happened & it's kinda weird. Suddenly I'm like the rebellious teen & they are calling the shots. What the heck. It happened. It just happened. Don't know how..don't know why. About an hour ago I opened my front door to discover a box there with a new phone in it. I open the box. It's from my youngest daughter. I call her " Nothing is wrong with my phone I have." She says " I've updated you & I'm switching your phone company. I added you to my plan. Transfer your stuff. You only have today before the old phone is switched off. Please mail me the old phone & I'll sell it. I don't want to worry about not being able to get hold of you. " I say " But I don't know how the new phone works." She says " It comes with a booklet. Read the booklet Mom. You can do it." Well. I guess that's it. I REALLY miss the old days of the rotary dial phone lol, but the cell phone is good to have with you in a car or while traveling. I'll probably be busy the next 3 days trying to figure out my new phone.
My youngest is always trying to do make overs on me. A couple of years after my divorce she wanted to make me over for my first date. She bought me clothes and brought them over. I told her " OH MY GOD I can't wear this!" She said " You look great. Use your assets show off the girls a little." I told her " I'd rather not advertise the girls, thank you. I'm just fine the way I was. " LOL. Crazy kids.
 

Oh geeze, next delivery, a bib in a box???? She's taking over! But the good news is that she loves :love_heart:you and worries about you and that's gotta give you warm 'fuzzies' eh? (ps: refuse the bib though when it comes, that's going too far;))

LOL! Yep I'm definitely turning down the bib. I also will throw tantrums over any underwear changes without my approval :D

My kids,if I don't reply to a text right away or their calls,it becomes a big deal but. If its the other way around...ugh

I know!! I threw that in their faces. They said " We have not had heart issues mother. We are not elderly." WTH I have not even had my 60th birthday. I guess they'll buy me baby food in a jar soon hahahaha

Hhahha@ baby food.

If they are worried about your medical issues then that is understandable.
 
You don't have to let yourself be taken over. You don't have to use the new phone if you don't want to. Keep your phone, keep your number, pay for your service yourself. Stay independent if you want to. You can live on your own terms (as long as you can foot the bills!) and love them on your terms.

If your daughter wants to sell a phone so badly, let her sell this new one she picked out.
 
My daughter does the same. When she was still at home, I had a live-in hairdresser, manicurist, fashion consultant, nutritionist, etc etc etc

I kind of miss it :(

Ralphy, you dawg :)
