((((Dinah))))
I am sorry you had such a lousy day. And I am sorry that you are having such a hard time lately and have not been feeling terribly well. This may not be what you want to hear, but maybe it is time for a break. Maybe it is time for you to take some time off and out of the fray just for Dinah. Would the company you work for allow you to take some kind of a leave of absence for personal reasons? It may be just what you need - some time for you to recharge your batteries, take care of your health issues and even think about what YOU want out of the next chapter of your life, including career-wise. Sometimes we stay in jobs that we stopped being challenged by or that we stopped enjoying because we don't want to let anyone down or disappoint anyone. But, when we do that, we only end up hurting ourselves and somehow end up being robbed of our own chances at happiness and fulfillment. And, I may be wrong, but sometimes when we stay in situations like that long enough, our self-esteem can start to take a real beating, not to mention how tired and weighed down we can start to feel.
My thoughts are with you Dinah. You are a good, talented and intelligent person, and you deserve to be content and fulfilled, both personally and professionally.
Take good care of you.
Tamara
