Not What I Had Planned

Hello Everyone:

Today was not the day I envisioned for myself.  The funny thing is, it started off well enough but went sideways when I got home from my run. The chatty carer told me mum was in distress and wanted to go to the hospital. I’ve been down this road with her enough times to know how it goes: she calls 911, the paramedics come, check her out or she goes by herself, get admitted and stuck in a room until a doctor gets around to telling her there’s nothing wrong. Rarely, is unwell enough to be admitted. Anyway, the chatty carer just had to stick her nose into everything again. This time she started ranting about she cares about mum, blah, blah, blah. Essentially she crossed the line on top of that she told me she was in the exam room with mum during her doctor appointment on Monday. Really?!  I was told no visitors and that stupid woman is sitting in the room with her. That set me off because I was told that I, a family meme her, would be able to come in but she waltzes in like she belongs there. To make matters worse, when we get to the emergency department, I got shooed out of the place and ended up in the lobby. I sat there watching the last part of a really bad King Kong movie while updating the software of my phone. Eventually, I texted mum to tell I was going home, which she said fine and I ended walking all the way. I wanted to walk so I could just burn off a lot of negative energy, which I still have. Let’s just say the chatty carer’s only saving grace is she does good work. Anyway, time for bed.
