Done

Overwhelmed


With the stomach flu paying a visit, colds, regular stress that comes from taking care of an elderly parent, an oil burner that said "I've had it!" and stopped working altogether and the added saddness of the state of our world...add to that a sprinkling of a house that looks like Santa and his elves came and vandalized 'Da joint'.

 So I have decided to re-post something that I wrote a few years ago. I have to remember to stop fretting and just go with the flow. I have to remind myself... It can always be worse.

                  A Town Called Stressville

          We haven't mailed out Christmas cards yet.  I have not finished my Christmas shopping yet and I am beginning....no...no...no....I'm there... A town called Stressville.

I live not too far from Migraine Rd. and I'm almost directly across from Calgon take me away St.  Do you know the place? Well today I went down to do some shopping at Crowds r Us, but first I stopped by Can't Find a Freakin' Parking Spot Place.

There I bought some curses that came all wrapped up in someone mouthing something that looked to me like they were saying "Folk Stew" but then again I can't read lips.

 I stopped by the Pile On the Pounds Bakery and purchased a cannoli in my favorite flavor "Double Chin Surprise". Don't get me wrong this is my town and it's home for now...but come December 26th.....I'm OUTTA HERE!

Gotta Laugh or else I'd cry.

Hope this put smiles on your faces and if you are feeling the way I am or worse...God Bless you! Hang in there. 

StReSsEd

        I may not have shown it or written too much about it but the last month has been very very stressful here. I think I have run the gamut of feelings from scared to to worried to angry and disappointed. I will not bore you with all of it, but all I can say is that I have been stressed.


My question to you is ...what do you do to combat or deal with stress?



Do you do yoga?

Do you meditate or Pray?

Do you dance like a nut when no one is looking?

Do you read a scary book?

Or do you watch some  reality TV show that makes your life seem normal.

This is what calmed my raw nerves last week.....

Well, that and a bit of (ok, a lot of) praying!

 I made a little tote for my niece. I call her my little ladybug

The way I am feeling lately I should have about 500 of these made by friday!

so what do you do when you are stressed?
