Usually I work full time at one job, Monday thru Friday, and then I work every weekend (both Saturday and Sunday) at the gas station. I took this weekend off "to feel like a normal person". And now I never want to go back to work.

How to politely explain that I didn't respond to my friend's text, and then the next three times when she actually called on the phone, I couldn't make myself answer, but it's not personal.
I don't know how to explain that sometimes interpersonal stuff feels like so much work.

This has been the most dreadful week. My heart is broken and fearful.
My cat Jack has been having upper respiratory issues that just keep getting worse no matter what the vet prescribes. I've been to the vet with him three times in the past 2 weeks and it hasn't been cheap.
