Looking at the last maybe 25 yrs of my life (if I am fortunate) and wondering where it takes me before death. I think it's good I don't know.

I’ve been thinking the same thing. It’s f’n depressing.

I’m hungry, like really hungry.
I’m trying to decide if I want to spend the money on the meal I really want, stupid expensive but so dang delicious! 🤦‍♀️

well, that completely fell through.
mom not feeling well, brother hurt his leg, had to get my son to help load him up and take him back to the group home he’s supposed to be living in but somehow always ends up back at mom’s. At 98, she simply can’t do it anymore and he understands she’s old but I don’t think he understands that she could pass away any day at her age. It all gets me so stressed and upset, my son is so good at trying to calm me but I’m feeling so antsy, I cry about everything, I need therapy.

I remember going here with mom starting when I was very young in the 60s then my son would go over with me in the 80s.
Bittersweet that it’s closing.

I totally agree... Sometimes it feels like there is a stop watch hanging around my neck! That little voice inside that says…hey if you want to do that thing you'd better get to it!!!

I so understand how you feel...been dealing with similar family dynamics. Sometimes crying is the only outlet. Whoever said these are the golden years was giving us the GOLDEN LIE!

everything in my life got difficult lately, very quickly.

I'm not sure why some people think it's okay to say inappropriate things and act as if it's nothing.

jmaak1 · October 9

depression is unhealthy and mentaly dangerous. it spreads like the flu sometimes. missery loves company, right. If by chance someone can put a stick in the spokes and disrupt the negativity and funk that chalanges our happy, just maybe it will be enough to rattle us back on track. a wisecrack to change the mood is only inappropriate because you want to stay bummed out. I Know that family issues etc.. are tough, things pile up. the older we get, the more we lose i fight it or let it go. but whatever. …Didnt mean to act as if it was nothing. at times i speak before i think and thin skinned people get feelings hurt, Thats why !

cmsienk · October 9

Not depressed, nor having family issues... not really thin-skinned either. What was said was crass - that's all. Moving on...

I’m exhausted by pretending to be strong when I feel anything but. 😔

Why am I afraid to add in jogging? I’ve been walking regularly for weeks now. I think about running. But for some reason I’m scared to start back up again. I felt the urge early on but convinced myself I wasn’t ready yet. Apparently I’m still not ready. But why?

honey_honey_12 · October 10

Late yesterday afternoon I had a terrible headache so I took (1) of the meds I normally take for headaches and I got so sleepy.
I kept falling asleep sitting up watching tv until I couldn’t take it and crashed really early.

So of course I woke up at 5:00am, 6:00am, 8:00am, 9:00am for the win. UGH! 🫩

They gave me a different way of looking at it. It had not occurred to me to see it that way. Doesn’t solve the problem but helps me deal with it a little better.

Rainbowsunshine26 · October 18

I really, really, REALLY detest housework but always feel an enormous sense of well being once it’s done.

_WILDECHILD_ · October 18

why do I feel like I have to put on a smile for everyone and crack jokes when I don’t feel like it sometimes I just want to be silent and not smile but when I do that everyone thinks I have a bad attitude or that I’m mad I don’t get it

Today I learned that a good way to spot AI generated text is that AI tends to overuse the long dash — like this.

I’ve been using that dash for ages, wonder how many people online reckon I’m a robot.

Shower thought:

Every generation from the 1940s to about the 1990s, who as kids watched Road Runner, Tom & Jerry or any of the Warner Bros stuff, were basically brought up listening to orchestral music without really realising it.

I’ve learned to keep a slight smile, not much just a hint, so I don’t look grumpy when I feel grumpy and just want to leave.
I’ve adopted that habit while driving as well but admittedly the smile is a bit more maniacal. 😂
