    Feeling very emotional

    What a lousy day. Went to DMV to register my car (late) this a.m., there was already a line about 3 blocks long when I got there. So I left, came back at 12:30, was told the wait was now 2-3 HOURS.

    I had to bring my daughter lunch at her driving class and listen to her and her silly friends talk about silly things. ("I think I'm gonna tell my dad to get me a mustang because they are cool")

    I do not know why, but I am feeling very very irritable and cranky and ready to burst into tears.

    I haven't eaten a ton today and maybe I need some carbs or something. I'll try to eat some spinach and feta.

    But if this continues, I'm going to crawl under the bed and hide until it gets better!

    Hang in there - don't you just hate the DMV!

    I think you need to use one of the ideas for a special "you" treat. That should make you feel better.

        You know what I've been looking forward to - going out and spending some alone time with DH. Its been so long.

        Maybe you and DH need a fun night out on the town - just the two of you, the clear Cali sky, romantic dinner ocean front.......

          Hey there Pal............ Have I got some jokes to cheer you on another thread! They sure made me feel better. (I know you have already been there a few times already... hope you know how much better you made my day!)

          A nice treat for yourself or some hubby time may be the trick.

          And the very worst question............. but someone has to ask.............. are you hormonal?????? Irritable and cranky you have earned by way of the DMV (ugh) and teenage girls (double ugh) but the crying thing could be Aunt Flo is on her way?

          Sure hope you are feeling better soon! Sending good vibes your way....

            Hang in there, Fin! I feel your pain. Today is a downer for me too. And i have to take the baby for shots at 3:45. Yikes!

            Do something lovely for yourself tonight - something you can look forward to. Tomorrow is a new day!

                I ended up taking a nap, lol. First I ate my veggies with cheese, then lay down to relax and before I knew it, I was out like a light!

                I honestly cannot remember when TOM is due - is that stupid, or what? Jeez.....Quite possible that some hormones are kicking in, lol

                I also think it has to do with food. I ate breakfast late, only 3 devilled eggs, then only water, because I was doing the DMV dance (by the way, I still don't have my car registered - going back tomorrow to try to do it). I think my blood sugar got low in addition to everything else.

                I feel a little better, but kinda yucky. Not close to tears, just some anxiety, I think. Kind of off-kilter, on edge. This is not normal for me, but, hey, my body is going thru a lot of changes, right?

                DH works tonight, the kids are all out for awhile, and I'm taking it easy.

                I'm going to make myself a nice dinner and eat in bed, with the cat, I think!!!!

                The nicest gift of all was waking up, checking the board, and seeing that y'all were concerned and caring! Thanks!

                      Finelly..... I thought of you when my local news was on this evening. Seems the DMV here in my state has implemented a new computer system and some of the people were getting tickets in the waiting line saying it would be 9 hours or more before they would be waited on. there were some pretty PO'd people there today. Hows that for stress............ Wouldnt want to work at the DMV right now! My son has to go and get his permanent class B license but guess he will wait a week to see if the new system is working a little better.

                      Glad you are feeling better. What ever the cause. Enjoy your peace and quiet this evening.

                        OMYGOD, NINE hours? I'm feeling a little less anxious already, compared to that situation!

                        Star sent me a funny pm with a song, and yes, I sang along, Star. Made me laugh.

                        I'm fostering two tiny siamese kittens and one of them just farted and scared herself. Made me laugh harder.

                        I went and reread all of you guys' lovely posts to me. Got a big -----eating grin on my face.

                        Realized that when I was feeling like poop today, I didn't crave anything except spinach with feta, cream cheese on a flax cracker, and a diet rite-aid raspberry soda with a dash of cream. THAT made me say "yippee!!!! Not even TEMPTED to cheat!!!!!!!!!"

                        Life looks better......

                          Remember that when you go to the DMV tomorrow. You could be here in Maine with the new computer system!!

                          Just paying it forward.............. or backward. You made my day a little brighter when I came on this afternoon. After all that is what we are here for.

                          Its true. Once you get the low carb into your system you begin to crave legal foods. High fat foods. I am on a pepperoni chip kick right now. My afternoon snack has been the p chips with some cream cheese on the side. (Forgot to get cheddar at the store this week).
