I need her fuss like I need another hole in my head

Mom is annoying me and stressing me out. For short background on the deal with her and Dad. In 2021, Dad had a medical crisis and during one of the surgeries, he also had a small stroke. So he forgets words and other things but is otherwise pretty functional, though still somewhat fragile, mentally and physically. He will be 87 in October. Mom is more mentally functional but physically not. She can't walk and Dad has to help her get to the bathroom and help her on and off and into her wheelchair. She turned 83 in April.

( Cut for complaining )

Rant over. Just needed to get that out.

This brightened my day right up

veganhothead  sent the most adorable birthday card and sticker. I was finally able to trundle down to the mailbox on the way back in from my morning at work to get it


This gave me just the biggest boost in mood today. HUGS
