Just an update
DS is VERY slow tonight! Very frustrating.
I went to my mom's during the snow storm that pretty much never happened. I came home the next day. I am trying to avoid David and even Paul to a certain extent. For now, I am trying to lay low and stay out of the drama. so in that respect it was a quiet week.
Work is horrible. I had my annual kick off meeting on Thursday. I could not wait to leave. What a shame. We had 7 people handling fires and large contents claims for the Eastern 1/2 of Pennsylvania. One went out on a 2 year temporary assignment that was up this month. We were told he is not coming back. One was out on a 1 year temporary assignment. she will be coming back next month. One quit early last year. So we were down 3 people the majority of last year. Then, one person came in to replace the one who quit, but she ultimately went out for 2 months on medical leave. Then all Summer, we were perpetually down 1 due to vacations. So hear we are in the midst of "fire season." Last week, the woman who went out on medical leave was in a car accident and may have had a seizure, which means she will not be able to drive for 6 months. No verification yet. One was out with the flu and one was out on vacation. so we were down to 2!!!!! I am getting absolutely clobbered.
I went over the Lexapro in October. It was making me "numb." But now I feel weepy and emotional sometimes, like perpetual PMS. Even getting depressed sometimes. Today, this afternoon, was a little rough. Small panic attack, like tightness in my chest, heart racing just a little. Just feel sad and off. I also wonder if I am dealing with a little bit of COPD. I have my physical coming up early March and I am writing questions for the Dr. Tired/fatigued. No TOM since October so I wonder if this is all peri menopause/menopause related.
I went to a Penn State mens ice hockey game yesterday at Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia. Lots of fun and Penn State won against University of Vermont, 4-2 in an upset.
I can't wait for Spring! I am tired of the cold and snow, eventhough it hasn't been too terribly bad. I have to drive tomorrow and praying we don't get a lot of snow.
I was doing really well with exercise and losing weight but totally off the charts this week and gained 3 lbs back. That does not help with my mood. It is the whole FLAB thing- Fristrated, Lonely, Anxious, Bored. I have to get back on track. Still doing personal training on Thursdays. She killed me this past Thursday and I am still sore.
One of the things I noticed, I forgot to take my vitamin D3 and vitamins this past week and then all of this depression and muck hit. So I am going to try to remember to take it every day for a few weeks and see if it helps.
Hope everyone is staying warm! Think Spring!

I would love to have a storm that never made it! Those I can handle.
I hope your work gets better soon. The stress must be terrific.
Although I sometimes felt \"inferior\" not to be working anymore and not to be married, when I read the journals of married and working folks, I am very grateful to be free. Hope things improve for you soon!

It wasn\'t so bad until maybe 4 years ago or so when the economy took a nose dive. Now, American companies tell employees \"If you don\'t like it, there\'s the door. \" Our main boss of my office of 138 employees has said this several times. I also think they are trying to get rid of the people who have been there a while so they can hire someone off the street and pay then a lot less!
