And it can't be "cabin fever" because it WAY too early in the season for that right....

Is this the person that drove off to let you move stuff by yourself? Am I remembering that right? If so, and you've talked to them about that and nothing has changed for the better, move on. But before you do, make it absolutely clear as to what the consequences will be and why you are letting go. Do not make an ultimatum but let them know that you're trying and you aren't getting anything back and you aren't willing to spend a lifetime trying to crack whatever kind of nut they are. Then listen to them. Really listen. Are they talking in circles just to get you to hang around or are they trying too, but not in the way you want them to? That would create two very different results, if it were me.

Emotionally whipped and we're not even halfway through January!

Well, I'm feeling a little "muted", so to speak, but aside from my sore left arm, I'm doing well.

I had my first COVID-19 vaccination yesterday.

I think I'll just take it easy today, sit around in my underwear and eat snacks all day.

Life's good.

I think we've all got cabin fever due to isolating. I keep dreaming of running away to a beach vacation . . . then I remember that people are isolating and social distancing on the beaches, too.

I'm tired of juggling the horrifying and the devastating.

I'm with Randy Rainbow and I wish the horrifying assault on democracy would end so I can get back to my devastating pandemic.

After Wednesday's Capitol event, I think I'm going through the stages of grief. At first I had disbelief, and now I'm just angry. Bargaining - meh, I don't see it happening any time soon. And I don't think I'll ever make it to acceptance, but I don't want to hang around in depression forever, either.
