With Covid.
Visited my mom for the weekend, got sick on monday, called to check up on her... "Oh yeah I had been feeling under the weather with some covid-like symptoms all week, but I just took some Tylenol so we could hang out."
I couldn't even lecture her for it anymore, this is like the third time... She didn't even think to tell me this time. I'm pissed, I've spent my whole holiday on being sick.
Ever since the lockdowns she just hasn't taken basic disease courtesy seriously. She also kept asking if she should come by or if I wanted to come and stay at their place. I had to point out several times that I HAD COVID. It makes me so tired.
She means well by it too, she just wants to see her kids, and we live in one of those countries that proudly declared "COVID IS OVER" and that it's now just a flu-like disease. The thing is, she used to isolate when she had the flu. Not anymore.
Compare it to my situation. NGL comrade, I'd struggle not to hate my mum after that.
