Nice to see you stop by my thread. I have read bits and pieces of yours but I don't think I've ever commented. Hope you are doing well and have found some peace and even moments of joy this Christmas.

Hi rockedworld.
Back at ya'!
"Always go straight forward, and if you meet the devil, cut him in two and go between the pieces." - William Sturgis, clipper ship captain, 1830's.
For those of you who are so inclined, could I ask you to say a prayer for me? (or send some positive energy my way if that works better for ya! :-) ) I was supposed to be off work (due to the stress of my sitch) until after the holidays and gradually return to FT hours... BUT... there was a "clerical error" and I don't have that time available after all. So, I've had to return to work, FT immediately and finding it a harder transition than I expected. Was struck almost immediately by "triggers" of being in my office when various realities hit me and when things came into full crisis mode. Plus, no one at work knows what happened, and I don't want them to at this point. I am not ready to talk about things. So, of course there are questions, and I am sure "whispers" about why I've been off, etc. I've been able to be vague and keep to myself but it adds extra stress. anyway, really struggling with this, so would appreciate it... thanks so much!
Tell me this... what was the reason given (documented) for your absence? Health?
God! And, you have all of those teens home on break!
HUGS
Thanks ((Mind)) It was documented as "personal medical" reasons... And, the teens.... My H is taking time off work this week and it is about time he took a turn anyway! So, that part is actually good!
Is that D13 in your profile pic? Her eyes are amazing!! She looks a little like my S12, almost 13's new "girlfriend." Gotta love the father/daughter dates. My H does that w/D18 STILL. She lives on her own now, but they still do stuff, and I think it's when she is hungry for a night at a real restaurant!
Also, you could have some fun w/this work thing... How about wearing some "tights"? Like you just had vericose veins done... Or, rig something up on top, like you had a boob job!

The average woman would rather have beauty than brains, because the average man can see better than he can think.
