The lost?

This week has been quite stressful.  The building is coming online.  Bla bla bla.  I can't finish.  Stress kills!  Do you ever wonder who or how you would be if just 1 thing happened differently in your life.  I do sometimes!  But, that choice is lost!  We must try to do the best we can we the cards we are dealt.

On a completely different note.  Who names their kid Angel?  Is that not a fail waiting to happen.  I know someone who is named Angel.  While she seems fairly put together I am skeptical.

Anyway this is all I have time for.  Now that the computer has rebooted I must work.  Ugggh!!

Until next time be kind to yourself!!!

Cash and prizes

Everyday it seems $$$ have influence on my life.  Tooo little or what to do with the little that I have.  I wish I would have had more time in school devoted to money management.  Perhaps I should take an investing/money management class next quarter. 

Prizes....  Some days it seems just drawing oxygen may be seen as a gift. Having someone in your life to love is yet another gift.  Friends yet another gift.  Family another! 

We have so much to be thankful for!!  Somedays however the ability to see the good is diminished.  Stress can kill dreams!  Stress can kill relationships!  Stress management is becoming more of an artform than ever before.  It seems simple but, take a moment to breath(smell the roses).

Sink or swim

Recently I was elected secretary of our league.  I was shocked!!! Don't get me wrong, I don't believe it is necessarily a bad thing.  I will enjoy the extra $450 at the end of the season. 

One should note I am a procrastinator.  I mean Big-time!  Tonight it begins.  I waited till today to type up the rules and get them printed.  I am feeling as if I should not have added the extra iron to the fire! 

The phrase is "sink or swim"; well I am dog paddling for all its worth. We'll see the outcome later on.  Today I wish I had not accepted the position because I am feeling overwhelmed.

It is however a beautiful pre fall day.  Yesterday on the way to work I saw leaves turning and falling so fall/winter is obviously around the corner.  My how time flies!

Pressurized

Meetings Meetings Meetings! Well that was yesterday!  Today....  Sleep in....  Hang with my bud...  It is great to just hang and be myself.

It seems to me that the more stressfull my life is the more time and energy required to find balance.  Balance is important!  It is so much easier to be able to give and give, when I don't feel drained.  Alot people want pieces of me.  I want to be able to fulfill that need.  It is just that sometimes I don't have it!

What would life be like if stress was reduced for everyone.  I read a study recently that IT jobs were in the top 3 of all stressfull jobs.  The reason seems to be because we hear problem after problem.  Rarely if ever is there a positive response.  Hmmm negative + negative = NEGATIVE. 

I am delighted that I have the opportunity to participate in a new Wellness program.  I will be able to learn better stress management skills.
