Feels like I am on vacation!!
You bet it does!
All the ego stroking, all those eggshells to walk on and walk around, all that dancing around the drunk who swears their not drunk, but we know their drunk...it's madness and it takes an insane amount of energy and stamina to maintain it. It's a never ending biathalon. It's soul sucking and spirit wasting all at the same time.
It has been a blessing to me to learn that the more consistent my focus is on my own health and the more I detach from toxic behavior (addict or otherwise) without needing to get in someone else's head at all about it, the lighter, more free, and energized I feel.
It really is like going on peaceful vacation from the most demanding job you could ever have.
You can find me in my deck chair eyeing the surfer boys from behind my sunglasses. Heehee.
Could someone pass me some sunscreen lotion, we Irish girls tend to burn
