Technical difficulties

I won't be updating for a while as I work through some technical details. Check back in about a week or so.

Stress? I've had enough thanks.

I've got lots to do and no desire to do it. That's not good. I'm just burnt out. My vacation at the end of May was rather non-existant, as I worked at home and attended a few meetings during that week "off". Things were worse when I got back to work because stuff just piled up.

I'm just glad I've already started thinning out my committments list this year. I don't need the stress and don't want it anymore, either. Last week I got a sure sign that I was over my stress limit. My left eyelid would have spasms, twitching once and a while. That's it, I'm full - I was literally up to my eyeballs in "stuff". It didn't help that Julie had some complications of her own that added to the overall stress level of our household

Thankfully Julie let me have last weekend "chore free". I'm feeling somewhat normal again. Julie is also taking care of her situation, so she's doing better. We are also going home to Mom & Dad C.'s this weekend, so that will be recharging as well.

So, if I seem a bit gruff this month, it's not you. It's me.

Vacation?

Just how wrong is it to return from a vacation more stressed than when you left it?
