Hanging in there
David and I volunteer at church on Tuesday evenings during the school year teaching CRE, Catholic Religious Education, formerly known as Cathechism or CCD. Anyway, David works with a boy with issues, ie: ADHD. Several times this year, including on his birthday 12/2/14, David went out with friends and did not come home. We have had talks about how much the school/church/the child count on us to show up. Well, David was a no show again. I called. He says "I don't feel like it." He was slurring his words. My guess he was drunk or high. So I kicked him out. HUGE argument with Paul. David is back. But he has been doing school work and cleaning the house. so for now, things are ok.
I am so freaking busy at work and the anxiety is bad. I am so fatigued and burnt out. No working out all week except yesterday I went to my personal training session with Patti. They have a theater room, so after I lifted weights with Patti for 30 minutes, I jumped on an elliptical for 40 minutes and watch Fast & Furious 6. I had gained a few lbs and now back down 1. I am in the Biggest Loser contest at my gym. $10,000.00 first prize. I need to step it up.
The anxiety is back on a semi regular basis so I am back to taking Lexapro. It's only been a few days so I am sure will be a few weeks before I get some relief. I am PRAYING things slow down at work. I've been on the road every day. Monday I drove 3 1/2 hrs each way in the snow to a broken pipe claim in Mercersburg PA. Tuesday and Wednesday I inspected one claim, yesterday 2 fire losses and today one claim. All that field time leaves no time to get estimates written, document files, upload photos, return calls, etc. So I guess I will be working this weekend. Ugh! I need a break.

Yes you infinitely need a break. The stress level must be over the moon!
