Well I'm back after pretty much the worse 3 weeks of my life. ...and I smoked all the way through it, drank my wine at night to numb the pain and the only thing it accomplished was make me feel MORE like I had beaten, worn down, exhausted and less able to cope.
BUT everyone has been taken care of but me and last night it finally came to roost for me. WHY.
I won't go into details about why the last 3 weeks have been so bad ...I'm only here because Last night I nearly melted down to the realization that much of what I've been dealing with was problems that could have been avoided by others if they had taken the steps to avoid those problems...But they didn't then dumped the responsibility on to someone else to care for and/or fix and as I sat here last night beaten, worn down exhausted and less able to cope I had to ask myself ...a number of questions ...
and the answer is .. to every question, because I let it ..and the only one suffering the consequences of those decisions is me...now what am I going to do about it.
So here I am. TOTALLY Exhausted, beaten and feeling lower than a snakes belly but needing to make some small step to put myself first somewhere in my hectic life. This is as good a place to start as any!
Resetting my meter ... and will keep my public commentary of my life to a minimum.. Those are the 2 small promises I'm starting with for now.
