I’ve NO idea what’s really going on.
Went to Aldi today. Really long queue and obviously it’s hot, so was really relieved to get inside the store. Shopped. At the checkout, the bloke behind me putting stuff on the belt was getting closer and closer. Then he starts clearing his throat, like he had a frog in it. Probably nothing but I started to feel really anxious and just wanted to get out of there.
Took the dog out this afternoon down by a quiet river spot. Hoards of kids, teens really. Lying on towels, all really close 25+ of them. Lads jumping in the river by the sign saying “Not safe. Keep out of the water”. Rubbish everywhere, plastic bottles and food packaging. They’d even set up a disposable BBQ.
Called in to Boots this morning to pick up son’s meds. I bought some 3 for 2 vitamins. I’d picked up the wrong one to qualify and the woman behind the counter said ‘step away from the counter’ In a really nasty way when I reached out to retrieve them and get the right ones.
I’m old. I’m 58. Is it me? Am I just turning into a curmudgeon? I feel really upset and confused by what’s going on. It’s like it’s all normal but it’s not. I’m suddenly feeling really fearful. It’s all so alien (yes I kNow we’ve been doing it since March 😊) but I feel like I should maybe go home, shut the door and stay there. Forever.
I don’t fit in with the world anymore.
