Hi All,
I've been feeling pretty good since last wednesday. I've had some stress, including a broken tooth, and a dentist visit and all that stuff. But I've had a pretty decent weekend.Monday- great all day. I made a to do list, I took several nice breaks, I got my to do list done.
Well, one of my items included some (BARF) student loan consolidation. I was doing just fine, found my records, called to figure out my balances. I even stayed cheerful while on hold for 35 minutes (THAT's a pretty good mood, folks!)
Was speaking with my husband, who always manages to stress me out with the financial stuff. He says things like "honey, I REALLY don't want to stress you out but ..." "honey you sound kind of tense, so you should..." After the 3rd one of these, I hung up on him and then finished doing my online accounts and such.
Called him back with an update about 20 minutes later. He asked me why I hung up on him. I said "Let's not talk about me, it's about the loans" "oh, sure, That's a good idea" Good attitude, right? yeah, and then we were all polite business, and agreed to have a nice (more) romantic conversation later on. Good communication. Good business skills. I did everything right, even though loans are NEVER fun.
So, why do I feel completely exhausted, deflated, depressed? I'm such a weakling. The smallest stress really gets to me, and even though I can't point out anything I would have done better, I just feel ineffectual, and lame. Too bad. I wish I could hold on to the "happy"
Oh well. guess I'll just go to bed depressed tonight. Don't even feel hungry. better eat something, though.
blechhhhh. anyone have a cyberhappyhug for me?
