My wife and I have a three-bedroom house. Our bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, but without a closing door. Essentially, you can see the shower and bath from the bed.My wife’s adult daughters moved in several months ago after they lost their jobs. It was a difficult adjustment as we have never lived together for longer than a holiday trip. I married their mother when they were in college.
A month ago, the upstairs shower broke and we are on a waiting list for repairs . The toilet and sink work, though. I understand the frustration of having to share one bath with four people, but my stepdaughters will not adjust their schedules. One will only shower in the morning, meaning I can’t sleep in on weekends. The other wants to go last at night, so I can’t relax and read in bed. They are fine with each other or their mother being in the bedroom , but it is frustrating.
The thing is, my mother is highly materialistic and judgmental, although she couches it all in a naïve sweetness that makes it hard to call out in a concrete way. Growing up, we lived in what she considered an embarrassingly small house, and never invited anyone over. We were discouraged from inviting friends over. She would drive me around to the “rich” neighborhoods to point out aspirational houses.
