I want to tell you about my day. (Lighthearted)

I got up at 5. I am TIRED today. I decided that infact, you know what it’s winter, let’s decorate! So today was my buy the shit day, and prep! Bought the shit, tidied up, took the dog out at 9:30 till 12, came in moved all living room furniture into the middle of the room. Getting ready for the decorating extravaganza. Went to collect the paint that I ordered at 6:30, Older man placed his basket on the side to empty, I then say “do you want a hand” start just taking the stuff out of his basket onto the belt, he thanked me, but I was so embarrassed that he thought I was super weird. Because let’s face it it is, who does that? It’s something I would do, and I often and always try to help, but this day and age we younglings get deserved stick, but this was just impulsive and I was probably seen as rude. So embarrassed. WTF. Anyway I went to home bargains (yes I am that person). I opened the boot. The paint tumbled down, smashed off the floor, paint all over the bastard car park, on my very very nice trainers (so upset) on my brand new very nice coat (even more upset), I then ended up transferring it onto my seats (thank the lord Jesus Christ for leather!!!) Into the footwell too. Took me about 15 minutes to get everything cleaned up, in the bastard rain. I was very very pissed off. Went into super market, there was a man with arms full of things trying to steal, arguing with the shop assistant being ridiculously aggressive. Threatening him, shouting just being vile. Do I leave the shop? I don’t know? I’m delirious, I’m tired I’ve been up 5am three days in a row, I’m not used to this shit, I’m a snowflake. Decide, doesn’t matter I’ll hit him with my extendable rolling brush thing. Brilliant idea. Crack on. Get in my car, come to a round about, as if we’re on a clock; I’m at 8 heading for 4, guy comes from 10 and very, very nearly smashes into me, I’m talking oh my, closest I’ve been other than actually being hit. I couldn’t bloody believe it. It was absolutely awful. Anyway, I’ve just got in, and I can not be arsed. So yes. Thank you for reading my shit story.

Please share yours!

I don’t understand the bit about emptying the basket but that does sound like an overwhelming day.

I woke up at 3:30, as is apparently normal for me now Hmm, and couldn’t get back to sleep. Arrived in my work car park and had a mild panic at the thought of going in. Couldn’t face it. Forced myself out of the car and nearly broke my fingers off carrying 30 ridiculously heavy maths books to my classroom.

It picked up from there and wasn’t too bad a day compared to some.

@Winterdaysarehere no, I Don’t condone it but I would have twatted him!! Oh god, they’re expensive little buggers aren’t they. Mines hiding as there’s STILL fireworks!!!

@beingTwat he put his basket on the side to then start emptying it into the belt, but I intercepted and said “want a hand” then started placing all of his things on the shopping belt emptying his basket for him 😬

@BeingATwatItsABingThing that was me last week, I have learnt if it’s only mild if you stick to your guns and tell it to fuxk off (the constant daze of anxiety) you normally come out better! I used to hide in bed!

Oh this morning’s panic was very mild. I’ve been in tears driving in before and contemplating crashing my car. I rang the doctor after that and got signed off.

It’s not on days that I know are going to be stressful that I had my anxiety attacks either. It can be a normal day that I know isn’t even going to be that bad.
