It’s nearly summer solstice time, and the heat and long days put me on edge for some reason. I go on overload...not uncommon I hear. Up north I know Summer is a mostly welcome thing but here it’s like nooooooooo not Summer again already! I need to buy a camper and drive up to Canada now🥵🌡🌡 Or fly to Oz where it’s Winter. Is there a place where it’s always October..?
I worked a 12 hour day Friday, then had work calls at all hours over the weekend for intermittent system outages. Lots of angry frustrated people and then the people that were supposed to assist did not. I’m a perfectionist like most of us and hate broken things...must repair. This was out of my wheelhouse, though.. So my new-ish boss could tell I was feeling crushed and jumped in to help. We’re much better off now. He’s like me but with a lot more experience with this stuff. Really glad. But the adrenaline is still up there. I’m wound too tight normally and need to take down the daily anxiety, the baseline so I cope better with a high stress job. It was a lesson and I’m grateful
I still feel rattled. Breathing and meditation... taking myself out of the situation and observing: ‘is this really a disaster that I can’t possibly deal with for another minute, or am I not sleeping, and run down with other responsibilities and demands?’ Yeah, and maybe need to relax and enlist help,.
It felt like a heart attack but it was anxiety. Every muscle in my body is sore. So I’m going to sit here on the site and breathe slowly knowing that others understand this. We used to use alcohol to de-escalate it but it never worked. Just wanted to change the way we felt since it’s frightening. Still scary but I’m learning how to work through it, slowly. So much support and love to others who are struggling.

Big congrats to that list D had up!! Wow👏
Had two good devotions & a sermon this morning entitled Setback to Comeback that was very timely
In all honesty, I’m not afraid of the change of having to move out, coz this house has some bad memories anyway. Since my faith is being tested, I’ll just keep putting one foot in front of the other just like sobriety✔️
24 pls
