Managing Stress

Life just hits all at once sometimes, right?

• Maintenance issues in the apartment.
• Have to sleep at a friend's place due to maintenance Issues
• Don't get a good night's rest at friend's place - start to get sick
• New job responsibilities at work
• Heavy workload projects
• Dental insurance decides not to pay for my last dentist visit
• My ears were severely plugged and I couldn't focus (got that fixed though)
• Relationship dynamic changes with family

I realize I'm breathing. I have food on the table. I am alive. I need to be grateful. But I have a lot going on right now, and it's difficult to balance. 

I'm hoping that posting tonight can get me in a routine again. Routines help with difficult times, it adds regularity and gives me control. There aren't a lot of things I can't control, but I can control what I do. 

Signed,
