I feel guilty and sad. =[ what should i feel?

Question

Ok here's what happened:

i went to a 2 week long dance camp and got back on Sunday. And while i was unpacking my mom came in and was talking to me. she seemed down so i was like "whats the matter?" and she sad that she was going to paint my room while i was at camp, because i've wanted it done for a while. and i feel bad now bc my room wasn't clean so i didn't get it done. and it was obvious that my mom wanted to do it and give me an awesome surprise! i feel sooo bad!

what should i do?

Answer 1

You shouldn't feel bad because, even though it was a surprise you didn't know you had to clean your room. Your mom should have casually told you to clean your room before you left. Apologize to your mom if you haven't already and maybe you can make it up to her by painting it together. Mother-daughter time is just as good. It's not that big of a deal so you shouldn't feel so guilty.  

Answer 2

Resolve to stop being such a slob. That way this will never happen again. And apologize to your mom for being so untidy.

Answer 3

Just take care of business.

Answer 4

Clean it up and take a weekend where both you and your mother can paint the room together.  A nice healthy mother/daughter activity.

Answer 5

If you weren't such a slob and this never would have happend.
