Been stressy, busy, crazy.... and here's what happens...

Lately I've been buried at work....

Had to go back to court with the ex regarding some custody issues and her on-going craziness....

Been not getting enough exercise and my sleep has been pretty awful....

Homefront's been a challenge, as my Lady is struggling with her own upwelling of depression and anxiety.... years-ago trauma and basic human emotion coming forth - as it does in ones thirties....

Too much demand, not enough relax....

Too much stress, not enough relief....


And here's what happens;

I take deep breaths
I clear my mind
I take the moments that I can, here and there
I grab a short walk or a run or at least a few minutes of stretching
I remind myself it's not forever
I give my Lady a hug
I cuddle my little girls
I cozy up to the dog
I journal
I give thanks
I find gratitude
I put one step in front of the other....

And everything's OK

Because that's what happens - even when things get a tough - in sobriety.

Happy Saturday, Everyone....
