    Do you ever have days in which you just want to throw up your hands and scream explicitives? I am having one of those days today. I am working hard to get my life and paperwork in order so I can move on to buy a house and become more financially secure. I keep having roadblocks thrown up around me that I am having to overcome and it is starting to wear on my nerves. Some days I just want to throw all of the paperwork in the garbage and be done with it.

    I can relate. I remember when I bought my first house and although it was just a run-down little terrace, the process of buying it gave me so many headaches. Solicitors, in particular, were a real nightmare. I actually did thrown my hands in the air and spout profanities on several occasions! It's better to let everything out, keeping things bottled up is no good for your mental or physical health.

    I'm sure things will turn around soon enough. I know it probably doesn't seem like it right now but most things have a habit of turning out OK in the end :)

    I remember when I bought my first house there were many times that I felt like giving up. It was frustrating and there was always something else. So much paperwork to get in order. When I finally got the keys to my house suddenly all that frustration was worth it. Hang in! Everything will fall into place.

    Yeah. I know how it feels. Sometimes it is too much that I think the universe is plotting a conspiracy theory against me.

    Oh man I haven't had problems with property yet because I'm still currently renting (though I assume I will once I start paying for my own house) although I used to have days like this a lot when I worked at this certain company. I used to go to the roof and shout at the top of my lungs when my officemates have gone and all I have is a nice view of the city. It was great I assume no one hears me since we sit on top of a hill. My boss gave me headaches on a daily basis.

    My father used to tell me don't ever tell an angry/frustrated person to calm down just let them vent then he would give me an axe and tell me to chop wood outside.

    Don't get too downhearted about the blocks coming your way. Press on and achieve your goal!

    Maybe take a step back for a moment, breath, and think about your next play but do not give up.

    There was a saying I read a while ago that's pretty relevant I think: "Life getting hard? That's God/The Universe getting scared of your progress."

    I am usually very positive, but some days really blast my good mood and energy. I just stay low on those days and wait for a better day tomorrow. ;)

    I really like that quote and it seems to be how things works. It always seems it's one step forward and two steps back. Nothing worth having comes easy. I hope your days are getting better rosyrain. Hang in there.

    That's a good quote and I do try to see life as a school that is trying to teach us something. When we are in pain it's because there is a lesson to be learned.
