What's Bothering You?

The neighbors incense.
Yeah I feel that. Some smells can just really bother me. There's someone where I live that burns dirty wet wood all the time. If it was dry or not old trashy debris they were burning (I guess to get rid of it instead of taking it to a dump like everyone else does?) I would be fine with that. A bonfire of clean burning wood barely leaves a smell or much smoke at all. But this dude just stinks up the entire outside and it's such a smoky mess. I'll just be in my room and bam now my entire room smells like dirty smoke.
 
Our new house is great! Except where we bought it from my husband's family members, they left several things behind. Some they're giving to us, some they just haven't taken yet. I know it will be fine eventually but it's very hard to feel settled with their stuff everywhere. I also feel like we can't start making it our own until they get all their stuff out because they've already made comments about things we've changed so far. This is also the house they lived in their entire adult lives basically, so while I get it's hard for them emotionally, I also want to be settled in my own house.

Plus, the things they've given to us are things we don't like at all because they're not our style. These things are also very dusty and dirty, so in addition to having the burden of getting rid of them, I also have to wash and clean all of it before I can donate it so it actually has a chance to be resold. It just feels like my work in settling in is doubled because I have to move out someone else's stuff.
 
I was starting to feel a little better earlier but idk what happened. Now I feel like I’m not myself.

Earlier my mom asked me what I wanted for my birthday and honestly, I don’t know. I wish things with my best friend could at the very least go back to how they were before a few years ago; that’s what I’d want if I could.

Currently waiting to find out if I'm allowed to go to work today.

My partner and I found out last night that we've been exposed to a very contagious disease - there is an outbreak in our friend group. She specifically has spent a lot of time with patient zero in the days before the symptoms manifested.

I've informed work, and my boss is unsure of the protocol, so he's going to call me back after asking around. Meanwhile I'm waiting for a doctor to phone me (2.5hr window), which was for something else entirely but I'm going to ask them about how long we need to isolate (if at all) as the Internet is giving mixed guidance.

Patient zero? Please tell me you aren't about to start another pandemic. I would love to forget about 2020
 
It's morning and it already feels bad.
Just some small irritations at work today. I'm upstairs, trying to get upstairs ready until I hear someone downstairs call out. I stop what I'm doing, go down the stairs and find nobody. Why did you just leave? I ain't gonna charge down the stairs.
I get being impatient, but if you saw no one downstairs why call put? Though can't even wait for 5 seconds for me to come downstairs is crazy.

Then, this shop never carries any fabreeze, anything to make the room smell nice, and I mean the bathroom 😫

I'm feeling icky and need a shower but just hoping my boss comes in soon like she said she would because we literally have no whole milk for coffees.

The fact I have to come back and deal with everything in the afternoon is exhausting
