There's a more eloquent way to word this, I'm sure, but these past few months have involved a steady stream of anxiety triggers.. Dad have cancer and a non-existent immune system in the middle of a pandemic? Great, guess it's on me to be his personal driver because you know that uber driver wouldn't call out sick if he had a nasty cough... My job? As a real estate agent with mostly nasty 20 something year old brooklyn clients (I love them for many reasons, but they'd lick a public toilet if you told them it could get them high) - NO WAY am I driving 4 of them around and hanging out in elevators with a group of them.. Because their germies can kill my dad, and then that's on me. Wife's job? 40% lay offs! Yay! She had to interview for her job and face 3 months of being treated like a recent graduate before accepting a big pay cut... Praying every day that the check engine light doesn't go on because our budget's razor thin and I'm not sure when my job will pick up again... with covid reaching 120k cases a day and living in a big city there was an ever increasing sense of dread that everything will get much worse before getting better without real leaders taking charge and turning things around.. (p.s. i know i've posted about buying an oled tv in the middle of this, that savings account was started months before i even planned moving, and we're not destitute just long term speaking, shits tight... )
Then Biden/Harris became an inevitability.. And this morning's candy crush session was blissful and quite productive... sorry for the rant, it feels like i'm physically untwining after being a ball of stress for so long, and it's just so odd to me the power of competent leadership and at least my trust in their ability to make a plan and figure this shit out.
