Too much happening

Let's see: 25k for tmj treatment. $1200 for car repairs and I think half that amount could have been unessesary (sp?). Car feels unreliable now. Lots of driving to medical appointmenrs. Last Monday, neighbor backed into my wheel and dented it. I didn't call the cops, but got her insurance info. I had a can't-miss medical appointment.

Personal data from two organizations ( 3 I'm assuming UHC) hacked, awaiting id breach daily from credit monitoring. Bf is constant pain. Worried about money.

Overwhelmed and stressed.

I really hope things turn around for you soon, sooner, immediately. Meanwhile take care of yourself as best as you can.

Just be alone with you and let yourself be calm. breathe deep, exhale slowly....

10 minutes and then get up, stretch like a cat, reach up high and imagine yourself with the power of a great cat on the savanna.

Sending good vides your way...

Even if it's only occasionally, it's good to keep an appointment when somebody else is doing the driving. It really cuts down on the stress. When your car is running great, you can return the favor. Good luck my friend.
