Sorry; I'm not seein' Eeyore at all (btw, LOVE Eeyore!)
I'm seeing more Piglet; a very small animal who's maybe just a little terrified of the jagulars in the trees because they always shout "Halllooooo!" . . . and when you look up . . . they drop on you.
Having kids (and their mothers) physically threaten you, and having to deal with head lice, kids bringing guns to school, giving out 300+ flu shots in one day with no help, etc. -- sorry, I'm not seeing even BAD "oranges" here, much less "delicious" ones. Yes, Hoozh's relationship with her daughter is a beautiful orange, despite the fact that her husband went scorched-earth on their orchard. But despite struggling in the other areas of her life, I've actually been amazed that HM has been able to remain so POSITIVE around her daughter??
No, I just think that sometimes "it is what it is." No rhyme, no reason -- it just IS. And we have to deal with that.
