Today I had my worst startle in maybe 4+ years? I was cleaning my room and my mom calls my name and I just jumped out of my skin. When I’m startled I tend to blurt things out loudly and this is how I can gauge the magnitude of the startle. So AFTER I’m startled she then says “come quick the building behind us is on fire!” But of course my brain just hears “the building is on fire!” so my startle is made even worse until a split second later when my brain registers that it’s not our building. The alarms were blaring outside but fortunately it didn’t sound that loud from inside. I realized that we could be the ones who are homeless tonight as the vacancy could have been in that building, when we were looking for an apartment. I feel sad for those who lost their home. :-(
 
I had several errands to run today. It was a ok day but now I'm anxious. To many social interactions. Exhausting. And I forgot to wear my mask in a store and someone called security on me. Which completely flustered me. I was distracted and was to busy focusing on everything else and after wearing it everywhere all day, I forgot. Some lady started acting scared of me and backing away when I realized my mistake. Didn't appreciate her calling security on me. Felt like a criminal and like they all thought I was lying about simply forgetting. But, I am home now and will work on grounding and relaxing. Maybe go for a walk. More wanting to crawl in a closet and hide for a couple hours.

did you have to go and get your mask to finish shopping? Hope your feeling better now. ?
 
I’m in quarantine but have run out of meds. The pharmacy no longer have a delivery service . :/. Dh asked the pharmacist if someone could bring them to the car and throw them in an open window to maintain distance but they said just to go in . Kinda makes me annoyed ( even though I am 99.99 % sure I do not have the virus)

I’m feeling grumpy and unreasonable and that makes me annoyed- I’m rarely grumpy.

My docters surgery have been messing up my appointments. When I was on the phone to them Monday the receptionist had to get someone else to help her with the computer. And I've had various confusing texts. Low and behold they messed up two appointments. Crazy. ?? no wonder their surgery is under special measures. They were meant to call back today to sort it out and didnt..pfffft.
