Stress

I'm not coping well right now. I worked way over what I thought I was going to today and, for that matter, I haven't not worked over time in the past two months, NC/SC trip excluded. Nothing stresses me out more than working overtime simply because... I have stuff I need to get done at home. So I come home every night and something new needs to be done. I have to do laundry, I have to do the dishes, I have to pay bills. There's always something that needs to be done around here, partly because three grown men live in this tiny basement apartment. The dishes, for instance, are insane! I don't know where they are all coming from!

Stress management. I don't think I've got it down yet.

Weekends are another thing. They have turned into my "catch up with your life" days. I'm always busy on weekends trying to catch up, whether it be with people or with responsibilities. I don't feel like I'm even near to being on top of things right now. Maybe I just need one solid night of doing crap until it's all done.

I HATE THAT DOG! My landlord's dog barks for no reason at all because it is a small dog and has no concept of... well... anything. Big dog barking I can handle, but the frequency of a small dog bark drives me to violence!

Now I have to think about dinner. I usually enjoy cooking but I've just worked so hard. Sometimes I just want to not have to, but that costs more money. Money that I don't have at the moment.

Tomorrow is going to be a nice change of pace. I'm working on a different site with different people so my mind will probably be able to relax a little bit. I had a really great time at Bible Study this morning even though I almost didn't go. I sat up and had a battle with myself as to whether or not I should just stay in bed, but I'm glad I went. I need the fellowship really bad right now.

I get to sing this weekend! I'm filling in for some guy that couldn't make it and it's an extra long set. I enjoy singing! It's also daylight savings this weekend! I will enjoy the extra hour of sleep!

I'm going to make hot wings. Peace and love.
