Heavier Things

October 16th, 2008 by alyssahedge

I haven’t time now, but man, life feel so heavy.  The weight on my shoulders was unbearable at the beginning of this week.   The rain and the cold front helped shift and free some things and now I feel more able to breathe.   But there is still so much.  Chris job has become a life suck and is affecting everything.  He wants a change now and I hope he can find one given the tanking economy.  Tyler was having crazy anxiety about school that culminated in full-blown screaming meltdowns that had him grabbing my leg as I left him at school.  Talk about emotionally draining.   The co-op that I started way more stressful that I thought it would be.   I recently visited my Dad for only the second time in his Alzheimer’s home.   I have been so tired lately that I have no energy at night.   And the world just seems a mess.

I don’t know – sometimes I absorb too much.  Thankfully, as we near the end of the week, I feel hopeful.  And hope is the antidote to stress.   Still, is sucks that this weight comes with getting older.   I see why people talk about college being the best time of their lives – I think it is simply that we were so carefree.  I also see why people say ignorance is bliss….
