Starting to feel a tiny bit better. Holy Lord though the pains all over my body almost made me cry. I kept soaking in the tub when the chills and pain were horrible . Tylenol, flu and sinus has helped though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seraphim Posted July 8 Author Share Posted July 8 I am starting on a definite up swing. My fever is finally gone and the congestion is loosening up. I have lost my sense of smell completely though. My mom is on her worst day. My husband went back to B yesterday and back to work today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seraphim Posted July 9 Author Share Posted July 9 Seriously 😒 we go to get groceries today and of course we have to take her car. We get to the store and she is pissy because all the disabled spots are gone . And one person is coming out and they walk perfectly fine to their car. She mutters not too disabled are they. She says I have a walker and a cane and can barely move . I said ,” mom I keep telling you that disability is not just physical. “ As she says this shyte in front of her disabled grandson. Then as we are walking into the store she says non of the people parked in the disability spot have placards. I , yes, mom they do I can see it from here . Then she is yelling at me why do you have to nitpick me !!! Someone shoot me please. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seraphim Posted July 9 Author Share Posted July 9 I said these people could have a heart condition, COPD , or anything you can’t tell by looking . And she says yeah but their legs work and mine don’t and it is much harder for me to walk. I am silently rolling my eyes . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was screamed at when I was in my third trimester for taking one of several empty seats in the front of a bus reserved for elderly or disabled people . It didn't feel good -yes I told her I was pregnant and she insisted it was not a disability. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I like facts being facts and she is like facts be damned the relationship is more important. I don’t give a crap if they have a sticker or not and I should have a right to say how I feel if I want. And I said but you aren’t saying how you feel you are giving inaccurate comments and being ableist . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then she is yelling at me why do you have to nitpick me !!! Someone shoot me please. I’m sorry Seraphim I have to laugh! I often pull up in the disabled because everyone takes up all the family and child spaces but I do it really late, at near close (I food shop late normally!) Once I was getting out and I noticed a woman leaving the shop was looking at me with That Look of Disapproval. She said, “You do know that’s a disabled parking space” and I said “Yes I do, but there are 9 others, how many disabled people are turning up?” And she shook her head and called me “Beyond ignorant” LOL I shouldn’t technically have done it, but it was like, 20 minutes to closing time 🤪 I should have said, “How DARE you, not all disabilities are visible!!!! I have a crippling tonic water addiction! Have some compassion!” 🥤 x 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My pet peeve is what we call here in England “Jobsworths” which is, blind rule following and ignoring all common sense and free thought! Rare times I’ve used public transport with the kids, I remember just having my son at the time (think he was about 2) and we both gave up our seat (he was sat on my lap) for an old lady who came hobbling on using canes. It’s the decent thing to do! x 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My son is always ready too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So glad you got sense of smell and taste back! My friend- tested for covid for one reason -because she is now the caretaker for her elderly, ill stepdad and she didn't want to risk getting him sick -she said -all that she felt (she is our age) was swollen sinuses and maybe a little tired? Positive!! She had no clue and it might be her first time (yes fully vaccinated and yes leads a careful lifestyle). Does your mother know the ins and outs of the risks of being hacked on FB, not accepting friend requests from strangers or where it seems odd?

Seraphim Posted July 14 Author Share Posted July 14 We went on a trip down home because she needed to do stuff. The worst EVER. She coughed and coughed and coughed and coughed all night and day. We shared a hotel room bad move. The coughing I know she couldn’t help but she can help by not asking me idiot questions after I go to sleep and waking me up until 12:30 because she doesn’t sleep that early. Yesterday is she got one of the worst migraines ever and I drive the entire 9 hour drive home stopping for her to puke every 20 KM. Then I am accused of driving her car in the “ wrong drive “ and I am going to break her car etc. Never and I mean NEVER travelling anywhere longer than an hour with her . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seraphim Posted July 14 Author Share Posted July 14 I can’t remember who said it but , yes, she isn’t growing old happy. She is virulently pissy about it . She can’t even carry her own purse anymore it is “ too heavy” We got a pedicure while away and she is at the front paying then tosses her purse and keys and everything else on top of me and says come on as she is toddling off with her cane. I roll my eyes and throw down her stuff so I can pay my bill. This elderly old lady call me princess shyte has to go. But if you call her old she drags out “ studies” on calling people old makes them die faster . 😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫🙄🙄🙄🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
