I found myself getting very angry and depressed and paranoid. I had a meltdown a couple of weeks ago.

There is so much frustration from the pandemic that it's understandable to feel that way. With information coming from so many viewpoints, disrespect from some on each side, economic and political changes, the want to get back to a normal way of life, and so much more, it can be overwhelming at times. 

You got that right, my job just let me go in the most hypocritical way which is fine because seriously hated that job but sucks at the same time because now I'm unemployed.

I'm in a good place living with my dad and looking for work but at the same time, employment is struggling horribly here, everyone is struggling in finding a job and businesses are struggling with keeping their head above water.

The world feels like it has been torn apart and turned inside out. Last night, I heard the fire department had to round up a naked guy on the main drag, people have gone mad. lol

As we're somewhat getting things back to normal has the pandemic changed your way of thinking or gotten you use to more in home activities? I think for me it's shown me that you can definitely get a lot more done at home if the other party cooperates. I'm a lot more open minded towards others capabilities of sicknesses and I'll ess on what they can and can't do as well as the over whelming work that doctors have to go through just to see a patient.

The pandemic made me unemployed. Jim and I had just started our move from CA to NV when the pandemic hit. I already had a job in NV, having quit my job in CA, and we were in the process of selling our house in CA and buying one in NV. By the time the pandemic hit, they had already filled my job in CA. Now, I'm out of work and have applied for dozens of jobs here in our town, but they'd much rather hire a teenager than a 58 year old, and it's made me much more cynical. The subsequent division of our country has made so many really quick to anger, which makes it unpleasant to go out. I miss the happy me.

I only buy online if it’s something I can’t get anywhere else.

lol I've learned the hard way to do that now, which has now lowered my online spending spree. lol
