Why do you believe this?

Let's see.

Beginning 1 March, my house was flooded with 4-5" of raw sewage ... not once but twice ... two days in a row. I have to pay a big deductible for the repairs and some family heirlooms were ruined. Then I had to dig up my property for the sewer line repair 3.5 metres down, and that's not covered on insurance so it's out of pocket. Then I need new landscaping and a new drive where they dug. Also not part of insurance. Then I had to cancel flights for a holiday in California because of coronavirus. Of course there was a cancellation fee. Yesterday I discovered serious deception from a lifelong friend. My BP was 191/138 with a pulse of 162. Today the transmission on my car died when I was driving. My car will be gone for a week for a whole new transmission. Then I came home to discover my heat is shut off because of contamination in my furnace from the flood, so I need a new furnace now too. Apparently the waves from the second flood pushed up to 8" of black water through the motor and I've been breathing it for a week.

It's been a snap-happy March.

Please pass the Tylenol.

I think I'm in shock, so I'm a 2.

That’s “———insert whatever word you wish here———!”, Is. Sometimes, life is ————.

I’ve still not cancelled flights from UK to US for May as yet ... don’t want to ... been planning this trip for a year.

One of the passengers is severely immunocompromised, on three strong immunosuppressants.
That was the deciding factor.

Her doctors said no and she couldn't even get medical travel insurance.

Otherwise I don't live in fear either.

4. I felt happy a while ago because my crush messaged me but it was related to only work.
Even though i knew it i still felt happy. But soont will pass completely, there will be no happiness no sadness nothing remaining. I can't wait to feel nothing.

I got the list of contents which were destroyed in my flood, with photographs. I was pretty shocked they itemised each piece of clothing which had been in my utility to be washed. I now have professional pictures of all my bras and panties one by one. Perhaps I'll sell said photos to finance my transmission on the car? Nothing could be salvaged including family heirlooms and hand-made furniture. I have to put a value on each item. It's pretty depressing.

^ I am so sorry to hear this. It sounds like they were pretty diligent with documenting the damage, which is depressing in this case. I wish i could be of help in some way :(

The last two days I've had awful headaches and been dizzy. I'm so dizzy today and it's making me feel sick like I've been spinning around. I have so much I want to do and can't because of it and I'm also generally impatient so it's just so frustrating. :( I hope it goes soon. I'm fine and upbeat otherwise :thumleft: I'm also wondering whether 1 is my true score now or if it should be higher because I'm otherwise happy. I always struggle with this kind of thing. :lol:
