i guess i joined this place a couple of years ago but then never posted or something. isn't it funny (NO!) that i always think of coming to places to talk about these things in the middle of winter.

anyway, what was said below is completely right. every time something new happens as far as a problem goes, i'm about ready to hit the ceiling. it's like i have no way to cope with things, especially since we're having horribly cold (& snowy) weather & i feel like i'm lost in antarctica with no way of solving anything, even something as simple as a tarp thrown over a lawn mower & making the 'eye' of the garage door go wacky... i just feel i'm going to freeze to death attempting to solve things, & i'm saying to myself 'oh not ANOTHER problem that i can't deal with!'...

i just find myself so down... so lacking of any credible energy or hope, hardly even looking forward to spring since i'm getting NOTHING done i was planning on doing in the winter.... & so irritated at what jerks all over the country are doing..

I also think that our level of frustration in life is also at a natural high since we don't get our needs met. That also makes one irritated.
