some sleep on the weekend
lots of crying
not sure what it is --
1. weariness
2. situational sadness (beyond grieving for friend, also grieving about work)
3. stress related to work
4. straight depression
5. all of the above


medium anxiety compared to my usual high anxiety
Now I startle easily, feel very jumpy and out of sorts

M.

Glad you got some sleep this weekend, sorry you've been crying

I'm sorry you've had so much going on :hug::hug::hug:
And I'm sure at least 4/5 of those things are contributing to the tears.
I hope you're not having a depressive episode, maybe you just needed a big release.

This sounds very exhausting for you.
wish you had some relief...maybe you could go back to the sauna, sounds like that helped you.
I have had that startle responce before but mine is with eye movement...it makes my heart flutter on those occasions not pleasant.
hope that you feel better now...spring break should be fairly soon?

I figured out part of the problem --- I was fighting a head cold.
It arrived.


Work got more intense. I haven't heard from my buddy since early this morning. I hope that he is ok. He and I are the only ones that know this current assignment.

Head cold.... YUCK.

I hope it doesn't stick around long!
Feel better soon!

Hubby made chicken soup w/ veggies I picked up on the way home
 

Hi,

Hubby bought a rotisserie chicken at the grocery store on his way home from work.

I called on my way home to ask him to make soup with the veggies I bought:

~bok choy
~baby carrots
~lots of fresh dill
~onions

It's nice.

M.

hope you are feeling better

Mari, that soup sounds great! I like bok choy, but never thought to put it in chicken soup... I will have to try it!

good news at work. too upset after all that we went through to care
 

Work buddy and I got good news at work. He says it is very good.
I'm worn out by those people and barely care. I'm happy for him.

My cold got worse. I have a low fever. Might take some tylenol. Not sure I can manage going into work. I really look and sound like garbage -- like someone who should be in bed. But I took several half days off this week already.

M.

if you have a fever definitely stay home from work and rest. great about the good news...sorry you are not enjoying it
