Today was garbage day, and as I was getting ready to toss out the rest of it this morning, I noticed a small stack of mail sitting on the floor. It was early and I was in a mild rush to go to work, and we get a lot of junk mail and mail for people who no longer live here, so I tossed them out without a second thought.
I come home and my mom is *fuming*. Apparently she was saving that mail for later because that pile was full of personal information, including a new credit card. I don't fucking know why she *left it on the floor* since we typically toss junk mail there, but as she asserts, I should have taken the time to actually look at the mail, and frankly I don't know what to say to that.
My mom's always been very protective of her personal information, and I've just compromised it. There's nothing I feel like I can do to mend this situation. At best she admitted partial fault, but she largely blames it on me.
Our relationship, at least for me, feels strained these days due to a lot of mistakes on my part (I'm generally forgetful and, evidently, absentminded, no matter how hard I try, because it only takes one fuck up for her to believe that I'm always irresponsible), and now I almost feel like my days are numbered, especially if something terrible happens. Even if the chances are low, I don't think she'll ever forgive me.
TL;DR I unknowingly threw out mail with my mom's personal information on it, and now she's pissed and potentially at risk
