Though I'm sad that people can relate to my irritable behavior, I guess I'm a little relived that people understand. Thanks, Christina and Wild Coyote. I hope today brings some level of relief from your stressful situations.

Unfortunately, I'm very on edge and irritable again this morning. I will be staying home. I'll try to at least sit out on my deck and watch the hummingbirds at some points. There's is no way that they will piss me off . , though I must say they are aggressive buggers with each other. Who knew such little cute tykes could be so pugnacious.

My husband wanted to watch the news this morning. I can't stand having the TV on so early in the day. And of course they were talking about the debates. That is a place for aggressive behavior. I didn't need to witness that.

A clear sign that my psychological state is less than ideal is when I start overeating, and eating unhealthy stuff. I also sometimes hide my eating from my husband. It is not an addiction, in my case, but is self-medication. However, some signs of it resemble addiction.

I hope no one calls me today. That sounds sad, but may be for the best.
