I came back from vacation and my computer promptly broke and needs to be sent in for fan repairs (which means they'll wipe the hard drive). I hadn't even had time to realize what was wrong when I came down with a dreadful cough and cold and I just feel so sick. We picked up the dogs today, and two of my sick ones are clearly much worse for being boarded for a week and I worry that I'll lose them very much sooner for leaving them.
Then to cap it off, I got a truly ridiculous call from my boss today. He wanted something on a totally impossible time table, and added to all the legitimate calls on my time, I broke into sobs ending in hacking coughs and have felt sick ever since. I hate to be melodramatic, but I see no way out of this except the obvious one. And of course I can't say so because I don't want to upset anyone. I don't even know if I'll tell my therapist because he's really part of the problem. I can't quit work because I'll lose him, but I can't keep working.
My husband says not to make any decisions while I'm sick and weak and upset. But the thing is that that is the only time I can make decisions. I usually just keep up the pretense that my life is do-able. And it's not.
