pissed. sad. stressed.


They consider my car totalled. Now I have to get a rental, then a new (to me) car. Finding one I can drive without it killing my back is a challenge.

and worst of all, the salvage company has called asking if all my stuff is out of it. I don't want it to go for salvage.

I can drive it. It's not junk.:cryi ng::crying :

I'm sorry, PAhippo. I hope you find a car that's comfortable for you. And I know how it feels to see a car that you love go to the junkyard. Maybe you can keep the owner's manual as a souvenir. That's what I did with my '80 Accord.

I'm sorry Hippo. It is bad back season - there's lots about it on C-D- and mine has acting up for a couple of weeks. I think that you'll be OK in the rental because you won't have it for long.

It's been real and it's been fun, but it hasn't been real fun.

Not to downplay your distress, but I have seen this saying before, perhaps on Facebook. I’m interested. Is this a saying that is popular now?

I'm in pain all the time. Joints are aching constantly.


BTW-That saying is many years old.

Hi staywarm2! That saying has been around for decades.
No, facebookers didn't come up with it; they really do give themselves way too much credit .
Also, it wasn't meant to be a statement of distress. To me it is sarcasm.
It simply means what it says.

Is the saying common with military people? I’m old enough to have heard it before Facebook came onto the scene. But I have never seen or heard that saying before recently.

I'm feeling somewhat motivated to do things on my list. The key is to get off this laptop.
