Orleans,made a p.butter pie for a dinner party yesterday, you could drink it!! BUT, I guess things could be so much worse.

You are not alone. Anyone who tells you they have no issues, worries or problems is a downright liar!
Everyone has problems. I understand everything you are saying. Everyone wants his money and they want it yesterday. My youngest daughter (33, but you've never know it) said the other day, "Mom, everyone wants their money now". I said, "Yes, and it will never change. You need to be lucky you have me to give it to you". She said, "I know you're right but what do other people do?" I said, "When I was young, I was one of those other people. That's when your Dad and I made up our mind we'd never be like that as an old person". Some people just can't get a brake. Life is very difficult.
I talk to strangers all of the time. I hear them. Life is difficult to everyone. The Winter has been so bad, I don't know what people do to get money for their heating bill. But no one seems to care. It's like, let's close our eyes and pretend people aren't hurting.
I am sorry you are feeling so angst. I don't know if it helps at all, but you aren't alone. There are many people feeling like you.
I don't have money problems but I'm not a lot different in that I have other problems. Like I said in the beginning anyone who says they don't have problems is lying and don't believe them. Maybe they're living in a fairy tail world or they just aren't facing the reality of life.
I was watching a TV show last night and someone asked "Is life so hard all of the time?" He said, "Yes. Life is one problem after the other. You solve one problem and another problem pops up". She said, "Is there never a problem"? He said, "There is always a problem. It never stops".
I know this is depressing, but I don't think it's meant to be. The trick is to work hard, pay bills and at least keep the problems you can control at a minimum (like money problems).
The Winter months are especially difficult. It is depressing not having the sun shine.
Good lucky. Take Care. Be safe. Do the best you can. That's all you can do.

It won't always be this way...In the meantime do something for yourself. Maybe you can make a cup of tea and get a good magazine to read or watch a favorite show, just to recharge yourself for a bit and forget about any problems.
I can relate with the the big heating bills here too. I try to give pause and be grateful throughout the day because you are right, things could be worse.

Yes, things could be so much worse. That part I understand but the other stuff? I ain't into texting so I don't want to figure out all the abbreviations for something I won't use. If I do decide to text I will type out full words because chances are whomever I am texting probably isn't up on all the "text type" either.

I've had those days. It's a rough ride, but eventually, it slows down and ride on the coaster isn't nearly so bad. There's ups and downs and I've hated that ride too. Hang on, it's life. Good luck, there's others on the same ride.
