Life has not been super bueno around these parts.
- The weekend after Crazy Poop Lady left her mark on our front door, a drunk driver (Crazy Drunk Lady #2) drove into both Abe's and my parked cars. Neither was totaled, but the insurance situation is a mess - it was a hit & run, she's now in jail and not responding to the insurance company's requests for a statement, etc.
- My job (which used to consist of mostly lovely interactions with lovely people) has lately mostly involved getting yelled at on the phone about things that aren't in my control. And two of my good friends and favorite coworkers are probably going to be let go.
- We are about to put my condo on the market, and some unexpected repairs and fees (along with the vehicle repair nonsense) have us feeling a little financially strained.
I know so many people have things way worse - but I'm feeling run down. I wind up in tears from stress and anxiety pretty much every day. When neighbors knock on the door, my heart races and I wonder what horrible thing is about to happen. I'm irritable and grumpy - I'm sure I'm a joy to be around. Abe is so stressed enough about his new job that I'm reluctant to dump my problems on him.
I don't know what to do. Am I depressed or just sad? Anxious or just reacting logically to recent events?
Maybe in a few weeks I'll be back to my glass-is-half-full self, and have everything figured out again. I sure hope so.
Thanks for letting me vent, Internets.

Those are a lot of stresses, and I'm sure they have a anxiety making effect. Give yourself some time to recover, then see where you are. I'm thinking of you!
