Here the speaking voice is recalling her evil grand mother and the fights she had with her mother. At the time she speaks they are both dead.

Salam Claudia,
إذًا لأقل بأنني بانتظار الفرصة، وحتى تأتي عليك الانتباه لئلا تطير العصافير:
... So let's say that I'm waiting for the opportunity, and until it comes, you have to be careful that the birds won't fly.
- By birds here, she probably meant potential bachelors.
أزعجتني جدتي مسعودة وأنا أستعيدها من غيابها لتعيد على مسامعي معاركها مع أمي:
My grandmother "Masoudah" bothered me while I was recalling her from her absence, so that she
will repeat at my hearing all her fights/ arguments with my mother.
I hope this helps.
