Have you ever compared yourself to a mushroom? by marlboromaam

Have you ever compared yourself to a mushroom?

You know the old expression, "kept in the dark and fed bulls*t." I'm finding some of these COVID rules completely/totally illogical... Oh wait, I forgot. Logic left the building! Example: I'm to pick up my mother, in assisted living, put her in my car, take her to her doctor's appointments, go in the exam room with her, talk to the doctor about her, bring her back to the facility, get her out of my car, take her inside... but I can't go back to her room with her for five minutes. WTH kind of logic is that?!!! I don't have to go anywhere near the other residents or staff to do that! I'm wearing a face mask and a face shield! I just don't get it, I guess and it just aggravates me to no end.
Nicely captured and you made a great comparison with that title and quote! So much has not made sense to me over the past 10 months, I could write a book!

@linnypinny Thank you, Lin! I'm glad someone else understands this nonsense and I mean it is nonsense.

@dutchothotmailcom I'm glad you've never had pertinent information kept from you and then fed bs about it, Esther. It's no fun. But the facility is only following the rules of the CDC which obviously has lost all logic and reason. Some of these rules make no sense at all to me.

Beautifully captured. The color is almost fluorescent.

@corinnec Thank you very much, Corinne!

I have the feeling someone started off with a good idea for safety - then others expanded it in illogical ways - totally frustrating I understand.

@milaniet Thank you, Milanie! I hope no one here ever has to deal with this bs.

It is illogical. I’m glad you get to do those things for your mom, though.

@danette I'm glad to do those things for her, Danette. But she wants me to help her with things in her room and I can't do it yelling outside her window. LOL!

Well spotted

Lovely capture and contrasts. Such a pity about all those protocols that aggravate you. I suppose it is only for the best. Hope your Mum is doing well.

Treasure that time you have with your mum, ( I've just deleted my rant!)

Nice fungi

Often been left in the dark and fed with Bull****. One reason for retiring. Logic and common sense!! Oh well enjoy your quality time together.

@sdutoit Thanks, Sylvia!

@ludwigsdiana Thanks, Diana! I'm not so sure it's for the best. She gets so depressed as isn't adjusting as well as I'd like for her mental health.

@30pics4jackiesdiamond I am doing that Jackie. And, you can rant or vent anytime you like. Thank you! =)

@wakelys I'm glad you understand, Susan. I do enjoy the little time we have. Thank you!
