That sounds like a good idea for after your pdoc appt. @Eve7
Sounds yum hon, even better not having to cook it.
@Shaz51 I do that sometimes too. Buy a chicken and just have vegies or a salad with it.
Nothing planned for tomorrow.
Just trying to get through tonight. At this stage I just don't want to.

I’m so sorry your life is so hard @Snowie and I fear your mother will be around for a while yet with her rotten attitudes .

Thanks @Eve7
I don't want to dump it onto you hon. You have enough to deal with.
Unfortunately it is something I just have to learn to live with.
I just want to follow through on my plans tonight. Am safe for now.

@Snowie I've been reading along, and I am really sorry that you're experiencing such awful treatment from your mum. It's deeply unfair, especially given all the effort you're putting in, the time and energy you're sacrificing.
Glad to know you are safe for now, though obviously it still sucks to sit with those thoughts. Is there one small thing you can do tonight to give yourself some care n compassion? A hot choccie or a bath or something? Here for you hun 💜

Thanks @Jynx
I should have expected it to turn out like this. Unfortunately I am not surprised. No matter what I say she will never change. I guess the saying 'a leopard doesn't change its spots' applies very well here.
Sitting here with a cuppa now. Think it will be an early night. I don't think staying awake will benefit me at all.

Dear @Snowie , no wonder you are done. It's totally unfair that your mother is taking her diagnosis out on you 😡
I wonder if you can tell her you are going to put her in a home with a dementia ward? Then she might be nicer to you!!
At least I hope you feel strong enough to go through the process needed to get respite for her (for you really)... 🤞
Thinking of you and hoping you are safe 💙
