I had to take a Seroquel PRN today because I've been ranting and raving a lot, mostly out of frustration. I just need a break. I need things to go smoothly. I need things that should be happening to happen the way they should. Smooooooooooooooooooothly!

I finished buying Hubby stuff for his name day and birthday. November and December stress me out because they include too much gift-giving, for my taste. I don't really hate gift-giving. Just when it includes deadlines and unreasonable expectations. And because it is all so intense during these months. As for Christmas, I wish we could just skip the whole gift-giving, but I know I couldn't get away with skipping Hubby's November days. He's like a kid when it comes to them. Anyway, I do feel satisfied with what I got him. Useful stuff that doesn't take up much room to pack. In fact, one item is even a new carry on luggage piece.

I drove our new car for the very first time, after well over a week having it. It was only for 5 minutes from my house to a CVS pharmacy. It felt very strange! I used to drive a manual transmission Honda Civic that almost felt like a race car...Vroom! Vroom! This is an almost silent spaceship type vehicle. It is a plug-in hybrid. I went from a roll down window, old-fashioned key-operated, radio only vehicle, to having a sophisticated computer of a car with more bells and whistles than I would ever imagine. Heck! It can even show the weather forecast! But then Hubby drove it from CVS to the rest of the errand destinations. After the post office, I asked him if we could go for ice cream. Ice cream isn't even my usual fav, but it seemed to hit the spot. Chocolate with wet walnut topping. Hubby didn't want anything, but I ordered that combo because I knew he'd eat some it. It's his favorite!

It actually hurt my ankle a bit trying to drive. I was afraid of that. Even the walking in the grocery store seemed a bit too much.
