Any one else just completely stressed out right now :(

[Kteacher]

sigh I feel like I'm being stretched to the breaking point in all aspects of my life right now

I think I am on the verge of a *break-down*. Have some things going on right now that I am having a rather tough time getting a handle on. Was going to post earlier today ~ maybe I will tomorrow.

Woow is me!!

 

[JessetheCowgirl]

So sorry for you both.

Hang in there

 

[MeanLaureen]

oh yeah big time stressed to the maximum here

I am completely convinced that stress is the only thing keeping my pulse going right now

YES! We've got a buyer for our house and thought we'd have until the 4th to get things ready for the home inspection. Our realtor called this morning and told me that it was TOMORROW

I'm done for the day but I spent the last 8 hours painting. It even hurts to type.

I'm trying to keep things in perspective. In two months or so I should be checking out the Christmas lights at WDW!!

I am!

My Disney Vacation glow is about to wear off. Had to interview for my own job this week and won't know anything for a month.

I am so stressed I feel like I have had the flu for a week. Everything hurts. I have my biggest event of the year in just over a week, and the hotel just pulled a switcheroo on me that is going to add hours of work that I don't have time for. I have barely slept in a month, DH is just as stressed with his job, my house is a wreck and despite the fact that I barely have an appetite, I can't lose any weight.

I have sympathy for everyone feeling pushed to the limit right now. I just keep telling myself that WDW is my light at the end of the tunnel.

Me! My child is 2000 miles away from me on a trip with my ex husband and he has half the sense that God gave turnips

She hasn't called me in a couple days, she promised to call every other day but hasn't been I have not been to bed before 4 in the morning in more than a week and my body is literally freaking out (lots of health issues aggrivated by stress) because of it.

She won't be home until Sunday night and I know I won't be able to sleep or eat much until she gets back.

I am also stretched every way imaginable by family stuff going on right now with parents and siblings health issues. I had cheered myself up for a long time with the idea that we'd be going to WDW this month but then it got postponed another 2 months. I'm still chasing that perverbial carrot though! Just a little longer...my DH and I both need this trip SO badly.

hugs to all the stressed people, pixie dust too!

I agree. me too.. anymore and even my own Mom is saying I will have a nervous breakdown. Guess she does not know me well enough. Too crazy already to go crazy.


Good luck and I pray things get better for you.

ME! I have two classes I'm taking right now. I have a paper due in a few days, and another test in a few days in another course.

My principal is a JERK, and I'm trying to find another job in the district. Which of course is tricky, because once they know you are looking at another school, you are given a CRAP assignment. I already have a CRAP assignment, and I am wondering if my evaluation will be in jeopardy.

My kids health is tough right now. I am worrying about my son.

Yes, lets see...just had a miscarriage, my 71 year old father is dating and doing personal ads, another family member has a serious gambling problem, husband works for Merck (company who makes Vioxx, the drug recalled today), other family issues, dislike job...etc.

It's not been a great year. I was hoping this year would be better than last (lost mom to cancer, first M/C last fall), but so far that's not the case.

So is life.....I still count my blessings every day though.

 

[EsmeraldaX]

for you all. Hang in there. It does get better. I was there earlier in 2004 and if I made it through, anyone can. You'll make it.

Hillbeans - I am so sorry for your loss.

 

[Micca]

I'm a bit on the "stressed" side too. I sure hope everyone else's situation turns out for the best

 

[Snowysmom]

Yes it has been stressful lately. DH is losing his job and we have one DS in college. The economy is still bad and age discrimination is rampant. There are other things too but those are the main stresses. I hope every one who is stressed finds things better real soon and can find some peace.

Oh yes, I can relate Hang in there!

My DH suddenly lost his job on Friday (9/24). He was the main wage earner; I work FT, but the job doesn't pay that much, so we're very stressed right now. He was laid off in 9/2001 and didn't find a job until 3/2003. We just can't do that again, so I've been wandering around in a bit of a daze. The last job loss ate a significant portion of our savings. Plus, our anniversary is next week, which adds another layer of anxiety.

Suffice it to say, the trip in the countdown will be postponed (I don't have the heart to delete it yet). Then again, our reservations for part of the trip were at the DVC Vero Beach, a beach cottage. I look at all those poor folks down there and know it could be worse.

A friend told me "that which does not kill you makes you stronger" and I'm just starting to understand the meaning of that. So, I guess we'll all be very, very strong people

Count me in...

and me! I got off the phone with my mom last night and had to do five minutes of deep breathing to keep from screaming! I know it is intensely difficult to be an 86 year old widow with serious COPD, but she's always been cantankerous and now its so much worse! My brother is retired and loving life, they live on their boat and travel all summer. He stopped by for THREE days in August and leaves all the care to me.
I spend every Sunday with her and do her shopping on Saturday. Every day I check in by phone and listen to the ranting and raving, but there is nothing I can do to fix her problems. I listen and try to sympathize, but even I can only take so much. I work full time and have my own life to manage. Work is stressful and uncertain, with layoffs and my boss is retiring soon. leading to more uncertainty. I need to run away!! I know I could have much worse problems, and many do, but somehow that doesn't make it any easier when the walls are closing in.

Thanks for letting me vent!! Hang in there everyone, I know we will all get through whatever gets thrown at us, we've got pixie dust!
