Sad again 
This time its not from stress. Its from taking a drive to the beach and unexpectedly being reminded of old times when life was good and everyone in my family still had their health. My relatives used to have birthday parties at this beach when my cousins were still kids and we'd have a bonfire going and kids playing around. Now they're all grown up and my family's life has been turned upside down by a crisis we've been dealing with for over a year. The sun setting over the ocean that I usually love almost brought me to tears this time.. I was looking forward to finally getting to go to the beach after more than a year of not being able to go anywhere at all, and now I almost wish I didn't go..
part of a picture I took at the same beach a couple years ago..

I love that song by The Byrds. (Turn Turn Turn - taken from Ecclessiastes) Thanks, brother Sydlit.
I don't think it matters whether others are "worse of", it doesn't change the feeling you have at that moment.
It would be like telling someone who stubbed their toe "that can't curt, people break bones every day"
Thanks again, Astrid. You have such a cool name by the way! I just didn't want anyone to think I was boasting about my problems. Thank you.

That moment...when you're making an omelette and you mess up on a flipping and instead of an omelette you now have what I call a breakfast scramble...0 for 1 at least I have the rest of the week to bring up my flipping average huh? Good thing there's almond joy coffee creamer in the fridge...it makes this L turn into a W

Same. And everyone keeps on saying like, "No, if you air pop it, it's totally a low calorie food!"
Well first off, calories shmalories. I try to focus more on eating nutrient dense foods first, carbs and sugars second, calories last.
Second, who the heck air pops their popcorn? It's seriously the most flavorless thing you'll ever taste, even with sea salt. Give. Me. Butter. (And nope, call me weird, but I don't really believe butter, as long as it's a good quality butter, is evil.)
I never eat just a cup. lol That's why I only have it on the occasion. Plus, I don't want it all that often. Not as often as I used to, at least. I used to make it like every week.
