I currently live with my senior mom, she just told me I will have to move if I do not get vaccinated. I was expecting this, but what I neglected to think about was, even after I move her and the rest of my family will not be around me until I am vaccinated. So my mom is very upset because I am destroying holidays and destroying the family. I also don't have much support in my area besides her.
I hate this time. I hate it. What this crap has done to families. I talked with my one friend about it and his response was "well considering how things are going who knows what things will be like in 3 months, your mom might be saying she can't be around you unless you surrender to China." It made me laugh.
That's brutal. Not that's it's any consolation but I'm sure this situation is common now.
thanks, I really appreciate your response, I'm pretty low right now, trying to make it through work.
My father found out I voted for Trump back in November and then proceeded to berate me in front of a bar full of people. I've lost family and friends over Covid and my politics. It doesn't get easier but you get better at handling it.
I'm confident you will prevail in your current struggle and come out wiser in the end.
Thank you. I sincerely appreciate it.
The other day I got into a huge argument with my sister because she is taking the Covid shit too far. I had made a reservation for 6 people at a restaurant. I know the owners, it is super clean and all governmental measures are implemented. When she learn we were going to have lunch indoors because the weather was cold SHE WENT BANANAS. Eventually she came to her senses and we had a superb lunch with our friends, but i wasnt even allowed to be "upset" because she wanted to cancel the whole thing (and only two days in advance which may hurt the restaurant's business). However, for our family she was arguing with FACTS AND LOGIC and I was being childish for NOT MINDING having lunch indoors.
it's really crazy now. i'm sorry that happened. i don't think you are being childish, but i'm "destroying my family" so take that with a grain of salt :/
