I'm sorry you're so stressed, @BethRags. Car repair costs can be intimidating, and the fact you haven't driven in a while probably added to your daily stress. I hope you're successful in gathering your emotions. It sounds like you handled things quite well today, though. Thanks, by the way, for reminding me I'm not alone in finding that irritability has somewhat replaced hypo periods as I age. It's comforting to know this isn't an anomaly.

It seems like you had one of the more discouraging days in recent memory, @whatever2013, with the Zoom meeting being unsatisfactory again, & even more strict Covid restrictions coming. You wrote, "What happens, happens." I hope that's a healthy sense of resignation...but I also sense your frustration. I hope you can work things out with your glasses. Hang in there. Our dogs need us!

My partner & I ordered take-out from a corner diner we ate at before the pandemic. I hadn't had Hippie Hash since February of 2020. It's hash browns, broccoli, mushrooms, onions & bacon pieces topped with two fried eggs up, & two slices of sourdough toast. It was a welcome blast from the past. Hopefully sleep will come tonight...
