I'm sure by the time I log back in buffistas will have good answers for you!
If only!
Really, there's not a lot that's fixable, I just have to muddle through, and not do myself any more damage.
Can you compartmentalize the work stuff and just take it moment by moment until y can get through it all? Not a great coping strategy, but one that might allow y to just get through.
Or, what Kat said.
But it helps to put it out there.
What I really need right now is my mom.
(Her birthday was last week. So, yeah, not helping.)
Yikes, brenda, that is a giant pile of stress. I wish I had some helpful advice to give, but the only practical suggestion I can think of is to give Darby a hug, or if she's not into hugs, take her for a long walk and see if you can clear your mind a bit. Can you put off a couple of things (like working on the refi, or maybe talking to your brother) until after the presentation tomorrow morning?
zuisa! I ran past your ship today! She's biiiiiiiiiiiiiiig.
IT IS!!
I love your city though! This is the second time I've been able to get off the ship in San Francisco and I love it!!!
I am dog park bound right now, which is kind of my sanity saver anymore.
I did drag myself out on Sunday to volunteer for an adoption event, and got to hang out with this guy, too.
Muddling through sucks. I wish it were easier.
I kind of wish I were staying overnight in the hospital with grace because then I wouldn't have to go to work tomorrow.
That is a beautiful face!
Yeah, brenda, that's a lot. But you are smart and competent and this one past project does not define you. You should not feel pressured into contributing to your dad/brother problem if it's not something you're comfortable doing. And I'm sorry about the cat. I hope it's not dying.
Re: turtlenecks, I cannot stand things on my neck. And yet? I had five, count them, five identical black turtlenecks in my closet when I went to do the flylady purge. I think they're leftover from my black jeans/turtleneck theater days? And I hung onto them because they're the closest thing I still have to appropriate office wear these days. But seriously, I don't need five. I think I kept two, plus the keyhole Orvis shirt, which I still love.
He's only 29 pounds! He's like a full size pitt that someone squooshed. He got at least three good applications and I'm sure he'll have his home soon. It's an awesome thing to be part of.
