so Scary Bank Thing was resolved. Bad, but not horrible, and it's fairly much over.
But:
My parents scared me in other ways.
They finally made the 'we want grandchildren' remark. They said they were a bit beat having entertained a dozen people including two little children "but that's not to discourage more grandchildren" For years I've been thought of too young for babies, I guess I've crossed that line: my folks think I'm old!! (The joke is I am more than happy to have grandchildren. And frankly, psychologically/mentally I am ready/willing. It's just the practical reasons, you know?) And where do they think these grandbabies are magically going to come from?? I didn't tell them I'm working on it, because that would involve a further discussion that I really don't need to get into.
This, the day after I whipped my self up into near frenzy/worry about 15 years! 300 lost chances! Fertility plummeting!
Hey, I'm in a reasonably decent mood, why don't I go read that BUST article about age and fertility to induced a panic attack. All right!!!
