What is going on?
I am fast becoming a wreck.
My daughter dropped her cellphone in a toilet about an hour ago. Ruined.
A couple of days ago her 3-month-old laptop got the Blue Screen of Death virus and died.
Last week two of her car tires needed replacing along with a wheel - remind me NEVER to buy used tires again.
AND she's getting her usual anxiety attacks about the holidays, bitching that I wasn't getting decorations up fast enough, even though she could have done it herself. (She's 25, lives at home, no job, has panic disorder)
My husband is under severe pressure at work, his supervisor is on the verge of a nervous breakdown (I am not exaggerating, he was hospitalized for stress in the past). He had to work today from home and will work again tomorrow after a full week of doing the 7 am shift, and he's been snapping at me. He seems to have caught the stomach bug that's been bothering our daughter and me for the past week.
My own anxiety with all this stuff has triggered an attack of reflux, to the point that I can barely eat. I'm hunched over with pain.
Our older daughter will be back next weekend to spend the holidays with us and her husband - she's working as a live-in nanny in another state. The last time I saw her was just before she left Thanksgiving weekend. She had a lightning quick mood shift, giving me verbal hell and then turning on her father and her husband. She never apologized, and I'm dreading seeing her.
This isn't life or death stuff, but I wish I could hibernate for the next two weeks.
