Stuck In My Head

Hello Everyone:

Sunday evening and time to blog. Wednesday was a little eventful. Towards the end of a rather productive blogging session, I read something disturbing about a person I admire. He was accused of groping a female record store employee 23 years ago. I read her statement and it didn’t make sense. Yet for the past few days, it’s been rattling around in my brain. You know how sometimes you get something stuck in your head that you can’t get rid of?  This is it. I’ve been following various conservation threads about this subject.  Anyway in other news, mum really set me off on Friday.  She’s going to this group at Kaiser.  The moderator asked each of the group members if they live alone and mum said no. When asked who does the cooking, she said we each do our own thing. I cook a more plant-based diet, something she should. Then mum added that I should prepare extra for her, on top of everything else I do. That set me off.  I didn’t appreciate her inserting me into the conversation and it touched on the issue of being in relationship I don’t want. I’m in a caretaker-type relationship with mum. I don’t want it. I can’t deal with the harangues or the complaints. I need someone else, ideally sis, to spend time with mum so I don’t feel so anxious. I feel like I’m stuck taking care of a miserable ungrateful old women. More reason to get out.
