Good days/bad days
Anyone reading this, and I know one person checks in!, knows I just resigned my job that I held for nine and a half years. Without going into detail I have had a rough three years - mentally and emotionally. Now it seems to be effecting me physically also from time to time. I seem to suddenly run out of steam at odd hours of the day. Today, DH and I were out to lunch and to buy some items for him to take on his out of the country trip on Monday. We ate at Olive Garden (gift card!) and as we were finishing, I ran out of steam... this usually means a two hour nap - the sooner the better... we still had to go shopping. I've not really spoken much to anyone, DH included, about my last three years - learned as a child to just suck it up and take it. SO... when we came out of the store something was said and I let him know - briefly, that I am not the 'wimpless' person people seem to think I am... while he is wonderful, he just does not understand... I came home and took a nap... still in a funk, but physically feel better :) Now, I just need to get up and start tying the last quilt... and then start on the order of the one I have to do, plus quilt another top AND make our DD's wedding quilt. Thankfully, quilting makes me relaxed...

You don't sound like a wimp to me! :)
ReplyDeleteSorry you had to go through three hard years on a job. I've had that experience and it is indeed hard on your life.
I hope the current and upcoming phases of your life will surprise you with a feelng of freedom and energy.
I'm glad you have your quilting as an outlet. Everyone needs something. :)
Nice new blog design!
Anita,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the compliment - I love the new look too. My mental/emotional state is MUCH better - I did have a hard time, but I cannot let it get me down!!
Thanks,
Reva
