Stressful week

MarahIdellCatLuvr

It's been a high stress week for me. 
ex has not responded to the child support office


courts are moving slower than ever


had to pay $410 for one of his mistakes


tell my parents I may likely need help with rent 


daughter put a tiny jagged toy in her ear at school- caused abrasions so she's in pain and on ear drops at 3


Group therapy members have been quiet and everything came out yesterday- including a new person having some kind of emergency that cut into my one on one time with my therapist. I'm slow to know my feelings so told her I may react but I'd rather talk about other things since we only had 20 minutes but I'm really angry. I feel like that time should be protected like I protect my one on one time with my kid or like she protects her break time. I'm upset by that


more stress but I don't want to talk about it 


Today is the first Saturday in a while that I have a "to do" list. Usually we keep our routine and don't do much so I can do housework. I have errands to run and we are meeting friends at a park to play. We both need some fun after this week. It will be nice.

Big hug for you Marah..... I am sorry that your ex isn't stepping up to support his children

That's rotten and I hope that you'll be able to get support soon

I'm sorry that your one on one time was cut short..... Unfortunately emergencies happen sometimes .... I can see you protect the time with your children however if an emergency happened with your folks you might have to cut short the time

Just food for thought.... I worked in the health care field and at times emergencies would happy unfortunately

I hope that you can have a peaceful weekend.... Big hug.....xo

Ouch. My week was stressful only with lesson plans to convert from face to face instruction to teaching online by next week. I didn't have child care on top of that to worry about, Marah. Hope you get some rest this weekend.

Looking back on this stressful week, Marah, it's a miracle that I got my face to face lesson plans converted this much for online offering before the deadline. That textbook company's computer tech who helped me is a saint! Hope you luck out and run across a saint in the week to come like I did this past week.

    Once again I've had a fever today. I'm not going to the hospital because that's a huge waste of time but I did schedule a dr appointment for Wednesday afternoon.
