The pressure's on.
I have slowly been going crazy. It started about two months before my company moved and it's finally at the breaking point. I don't mean crazy as in one flew over the cuckoo's nest, I mean just losing my mind from being stressed. Worrying about work, worrying about keeping the apartment clean, worrying about my review (still hasn't happened), worrying about finding a house, etc. It's made me into a crabby person to be with and God bless my husband's soul that he hasn't just totally lost it with me.
For those of you who've seen the anime for KareKano (Kareshi Kanojo no Jijou), there is a scene in the second episode when he gives her something else to work on since he's part of so many different clubs and commities. Her remark is, "You're going to die soon." (English dub version...which isn't half bad.) Sometimes I hear a little voice that tells me that when I start to feel this way. It's when I stop and realize I need to work less and make more time for other things. I dislike what the stress is doing to me so here's the plan Stan on what I will need to start working on and changing.
1) I will start to exercise. It sounds stupid, but people who exercise are usually happier people because of the chemicals that are released when you exercise. I'm going to buy some jogging shoes this Friday and go jogging with my husband. There are a lot of nice places to do that around Clovis and Fresno.
2) I will limit myself to working on full work day on the weekends per month. No matter how behind I feel I am, no matter what I know I need to do I will just get it done during the day. Friday I tweaked my back a little and it's just getting better again. I stressed over not being able to go into work to do some stuff because it hurt so bad I couldn't drive into work. (God bless pain killers.)
3) I will try to let things go. This will be the hardest for me. Like yesterday our receptionist messed with my print out that I was doing. I still don't understand why she felt it was ok. If it was new business would she have done it? She says they were in order, but if they were then why touch them? It's one thing to move a print out when it's done or to hand it out, but there were a lot of pages and I thought it was safe. Obviously I've learned my lesson and next time I'll waste my time and just stand guard over my print job.
Pretty soon I will be too busy to do much of anything. Right now I'm studying to get one of my licenses, one out of the 5 or 6 I'll need in order to sign off on new business. I plan on getting all of those within 2-3 years. It may take me longer since one of the tests is really hard from what my co-worker's say.
people say exercises make people feel fresher and more energetic before going to work.. for me its just the perfect recipe for me to dropdead sleeping soundly.

Exercise is a good stress relief. I would sing at the top of my lungs when I think that I'm alone in my unit until I feel less stressed, grab some chocolates, watch some hilarious drama and then proceed to do my work, even if it means that I'll need to stay up late because of it.
*hugs* feel better Katrina-nee!

re: comment Haha, it's not that I like wearing them. I don't mind cuz I look good in 'em. ;D Anyway, I've been wearing contacts for the past two weeks (daily) and one this week is over, I'll have a whole years supply of 'em in the bathroom cabinet.

Mm... I know what you mean. Anymore, you'll explode and have to suffer the consequences. But sometimes if you try too hard NOT to stress, you end up making it worse--trying not to do anything so you won't get stressed or depressed or go crazy, then get stressed, depressed, go crazy because you aren't doing anything (and the list goes on). So...be careful, dear. *muah*

haha! Yeah, that's funny. Also, the worst nightmare of any hosting site. x_x Of course, we know it was a fluke, but man! I'd be "What? What?! Oh, wait..."
