Poor dude has even been scolded here for being a vegetarian. In one place (small town), the owner was lecturing him on "How dare he not enjoy the homemade soup just because there's meat in it". He could see the man lecturing him, but didn't understand. Hubby later translated.
Hubby and I feel overwhelmed by everything, but are doing our best. I look forward to a couple days without any people to visit, or otherwise come for any reason. We plan to sell some of our big things to the upcoming new owners of the house we rent (fridge, old living room furniture, newish gas grill, and more). It feels uncomfortable, probably how our old parrots felt when they saw us packing for a trip.
I'm sure some here are sick of what I've been writing, and the length, but I need some release. I can't just scream.

I'm not sick of you writing and I very much doubt anyone else here is.
I understand how you would feel like a parrot...overwhelmed with it all. Not having to socialize for a few days will be, I think, a rejuvenating break.
