Good night Claire 🙂 @outlander
Nothing lasts forever, not the bad times, not the good times. I think one of the tricks is to remember that, even when we feel good it's realistic to know it won't last forever, but then when we feel bad we can rely on the knowledge that it won't last forever either. Particularly those of us with neurobiological reasons that exasperate those changes.
Sleep well and peace be with you.
Lots of love and hugs,
Niqua

Yes it's not a great feeling outlander,can't describe it when you don't know what to do with yourself it's like you are being haunted.Got a quote for tyres earlier in the week ,when I paid him yesterday it was 60 more than quoted on the phone and clarified by me several times.I paid it but complained to tell him I had a problem with their service.He then said because I told his wife I paid more two years ago ,that seemed to justify their price.I SMS when I got home because he had the hide to give me a bundle of business cards,after me telling me I wasn't happy,put them in the bin ,can't recommend them because I was deceived.
Apparently,his wife lied to him,he told me I didn't hear her right, which I did and I repeated it back to her and she clarified it.I received 5 or more abusive texts which stressed me out he stopped the final text when I said I'd have to get the Police.Putting it back on the customer I told him isn't good or the way he dealt with it.I paid it,but a quote to me is the price you expect.Then I spent the next hour or so in the mechanics because my car was leaking oil because a mechanic who done the oil change,pinched the o ring on the cap which broke it and I was close to my engine blowing up because of no oil.He apologized and paid the bill without me asking.Yes I had a bad day outlander,with my elderly mother deterioratng on top and depression ,anxiety and hormones.Dealing with life and people is hard.

Yes it really stressed me,this guy I never went to before,but the way he kept the texts coming accusing me of "pulling a stunt"when I paid the amount when I knew it wasn't the quote given wasn't Tuesday I would conduct myself in a business.The sad part is his wife lied to him so there is obviously problems there.As I said to him I simply pointed out a problem they need to avoid in the future.I was highly strung,makes you nervous when they threaten you in that way where you question yourself.I never had that problem before,hope I never do again neither.
