Thanks for all the encouragement--this afternoon I managed to put a wrap on one of the projects that's been dragging me under, so I am in a healthier frame of mind. (4thegirls: I wish I could say I was handling other peoples' work--that would be an excuse for feeling overwhelmed--but unfortunately deadline overloads are just the nature of the beast for everyone in this profession...I used to have a pretty comfy private legal practice, but I left to work in government practice...as pretty much the legal equivalent of a trauma surgeon.)
It's good to know that I'm not the only one having anger issues at this stage; not because misery loves company (i.e., I'm not glad that anyone else is angry), but because at least it doesn't mean that my new life is running off the rails. (It's just hitting what looks like a normal rough patch.)
In any event, two more days down...just sucking up and driving on, as we used to say in the Army...
