What has cost you the most?

The word that consumes my thoughts, STRESS.
Bailey Brooks 1/1/2022

Over the last 5 years, I have bought into so much bullshit and gotten nothing in return. I am no better off now than I was 5 years ago. All I have to invest is time, and it's not like that is endless. The economy is in the shitter... the pandemic is still in control... stress... stress... stress... UMM yes... I feel strain, tension, anxiety, concern and am often uneasy about my future. I worry about finances, my relationships, my kids. For Gawd sakes...my dog! This causes aggravation, anger, annoyance, exasperation, irritation, and inevitably, trouble.
