Week Of Wonders…
So, I’ve been working lately.
I’ve kind of been working a lot.
For the next little while, I’ll be working seventeen days straight, actually, with at least half of those days being doubles. (Yes, doubles. You know, the types of days where you leave the house at seven a.m. and don’t come back until eleven p.m.)
A few weeks ago, Jooms warned me about this. Like, Dude, you should slow it down.
Today my mother warned me, too. You are the most important one here, she said, and if YOU aren’t ok, your work won’t be ok either.
And then there was my Lady T, the most wonderous friend who ever did live. And she said, You know, we don’t want a repeat of last fall.
Oh, last fall. I don’t really remember much of it, actually, because I was tanked on my balcony all the time. I spent most of that time praying to Orion, hoping and wishing that he and God could take care of everything that needed taking care of.
The great thing about this fall is that I have new meds. Hurrah! Yay for pharmaceuticals! I’m living in a place that I LOVE, I have a horse, my car is on the road again. I’m free to come and go as I wish, I can get out of the lease I have on my current living arrangements any old time I want.
I feel good about my life. I feel happy and satisfied and like I’m accomplishing the steps towards my goals every single day.
All because of the people who love me, who know enough to point out that I may be overdoing it.
And I am!
And this time? I’m strong enough to say, yes, I am overdoing it, and I’m strong enough to take my boss aside and DO something about it.
So, yay me!
