This may seem not related, but have you drank enough water today since you woke?
 
Sad over wife's birthday, hawkie? Today is my mother's birthday. I light a candle (battery) for everyone I lost on their birthdays. I light it the sundown before till I wake up day after the birthday. I talk to the candle. It's beautiful, it flickers like a real candle.

Then sometimes you get the Bear.
Good Days, Bad Days. Depression and then great Energy.
Most likely its what's been going on all spring that's needing so much + energy.

I bought a set of those battery operated candles years ago, but only used them a couple of times. They do flicker like real candles and set a nice ambience. That's a nice tradition Pepper.

"...he..."? Landlord? If he doesn't get right on it. I'd point out not replacing a fridge when summer right around the corner, possibly already happening where you are, it could be possibly be seen aas a form of 'Elder abuse' as well as not fulfilling the responsibility of landlord in most states to repair/replace major appliances and fixtures that wear out or break thru no fault of the tennant (example if hail breaks a window-- he has to fix and absorb the cost, but if you get upset and throw something that breaks the window while you'd notify him, and he'd likely fix or hire someone to fix, the cost would be on you.)
Do keep us posted.
 
Hawkdon, sorry you're having difficulties. Clumsiness and what feels like brain glitches DO happen to everyone at any age, and they tend to happen more when we are under stress. AND stress has a tendency to 'snowball': We're feeling not ourselves, mess something up, forget something and get more stressed leading more (hopefully minor) accidents or bothersome forgetting, or missing indicators of impending but avoidable problem and we get more upset leading to-- well you get the idea.

There are ways to minimize this, we each have to find what works for us, sometimes different strategies for different types stress snowballs. But there times we NEED a cathartic rant or cry to get past it, because at the heart of our malfunctions we often find emotions, thoughts, worries we've been avoiding dealing with.


Hope your landlord gets fridge problem fixed quickly and more than that i hope you will be feeling less stress soon.

If it were me, I'd go back to bed and sleep and I wouldn't feel bad about it. The healing powers of sleep are underestimated.
