Mine....stressful....and I have no concrete idea why. Just seems like one of those inner turmoil things, and questioning the unknown since I'm facing many changes in my life right now.

I'm actually looking forward to going to work tomorrow (how sad is that?!?!) just to keep myself occupied from my mental wanderings.

I spent most of the day reading, and had brunch with my roommates family. Seems like it should be wonderfully relaxing......but I can't seem to shake this underlying anxious feeling.

So....as a little diversion from my world, I thought I'd check in and see how everyone else is doing.

Well, I *hate* Sundays. As much as I complain about being busy, I never know what to do with myself when I'm not. I worked on handouts for my little lit students, I went to dinner with my Dad and now I'm reading and watching Lord of the Rings.

It wasn't a bad day, just blah.

Mithrea, I can relate. Sometimes I have the feeling that there is something I'm supposed to be doing, and after going through the mental list of that which needs to be taken care of, I then must convince myself that, yes, I truly can relax.

Tomorrow will be a better day.

I had a really stressful job a while back, the kind that it was hard not to take home with you. A very helpful trick that I learned from a supervisor was to write down in a small notebook things I knew I had to do during the week that kept coming to me while I was trying to relax. Once I wrote them down, I could forget about them.

I've also learned to take care of myself and if that means doing absolutely nothing for a day, so be it. The world will still be there. Brightest blessings for tomorrow.

I had my first day back in classes. And It was okay...certain parts better than others...lol Found out because my chem. class is so full that they aren't going to have tests during the class hours. But have them in late afternoon...haven't found out how late though. Good thing its only 3 tests...I'm still pretty happy with my class so far...but it was only the first day ;)

But I got this in an email and it had me laughing so hard...:lol:

The next time you're feeling down remember... if the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off.

My day was fine until.............
I got in my car after work and it was DEAD! No raido, No ding, ding, ding, of the door being open, No lights, not even a click click. I was so disappointed cause I had planned to walk the track while waiting to pick up the oldest from football practice.
-My boss brought me home. That had to be more than an hour out of her way. What wonderful people I work with!
-Got my truck and me and the youngest went back to town to pick up the oldest. Gave us some time to spend together.
-Oldest came to truck and said buses weren't running tomorrow. I went to ask the coach why and gained some insight as to what's going on with the football program.
-Cooked supper, something I don't normally do cause Hubby usually does it, which gave him a little relaxation time.
-Middle son gave me a big ole hug and kiss. Something I'm learning to appreciate more and more as I watch all 3 grow.

So, what could have ended up throwing a major wrench in my plans was kept under control and ended up giving me a smile.:)

Ooooooohhhh.....if I already felt bad, now I feel worse! But maybe you'll get your homework done if I'm not there, and I'll see you tomorrow and be able to enjoy it because I won't be anxious about things not being done here.

I just had the quickest day of my life. I went back to my teaching job after a really long break. Since I had SO MUCH work to do, the day went by so quickly. Even though I had loads of work to do, I am very content, since I feel productive and didn't have time to worry over an issue. Hopefully, you all had a nice day. :)

As far as monday's go, it wasn't that bad, especially compared to the past couple of days (Yvonne's party excluded).

Then the guys I play D&D with came over and I had fun. It's gonna be a relatively easy week for me, cause my main boss is out till after the holiday.

Hi everyone,

I can definitely say that today was better than yesterday. The underlying stress and anxiousness is still there, but not quite a strong as yesterday. One of my friends at work thinks it has something to do with my upcoming move. It will be the first time I have ever lived alone. I'm actually quite excited about the move, but he thinks that maybe the change is overwhelming me on the inside.

Anyway, got much accomplished at work, which is always a plus. Started walking during morning break again. Have been needing to get back on the exercise kick again, so happy that I finally took the first step. Didn't argue with the guy I'm seeing, although that relationship is very unsettled at the moment.

So, I'm hoping for tomorrow to be at least as good as today. May you all find some happiness to enjoy.

Annika

sounds like vehicle trouble may just be a loose battery cable. check the ground one first, then the hot.

took a much needed day off yesterday and went to a water park, and following in Flars footsteps.. my entire front is quite burned.. :(
but I had fun, and am somewhat relaxed, so it was well worth it :)

it's tuesday and it's looking like it's going to be a sucky one too. Had an arguement with SO last night and went to bed upset with one another...not good, bled over to this morning when I dropped him off at work, and Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr.....that is so frustrating when you know that you're in the right and they argue with you until you're blue in the face....it's awful...I just hope that something cheers my day up...might light a candle or something...this new feng shui stuff in my room is NOT helping my chi...gotta get the old nasty energy out. thanks for letting me vent. :)
