I was just logging on to post the name of the book to you because yesterday when I clicked submit, the post was then lost in the ether. Anyhow, lo and behold , it is on the page today. Whatever...
Debbie Ford seems to have some very highly recommended books which I plan to check out after I am finished with the current reading list I am wading through.
Journaling, Well, some different stress today. When I was hit with bomb 2 about the PA I was a mess. I saw my Dr. and was able to take some time off work. My Dr. felt I should stay off until after the holidays. I found out on Christmas Eve (when the paycheck I was expecting did not show up) that I don't have the ability to take that much time off. But no one told me!!!! So, the people in HR in my company are looking into it and trying to do what they can to help me, as they felt like s**t tha this happened to me on Christmas Eve (as they should!) But, in the meantime I go to see the Dr. this a.m. to get a note saying I can go back to work today. I don't need extra financial stress (there was already plenty of that) on top of the personal stress in my life. Sheesh! I was finally getting my sleeping patterns under control and now this! So, I may be back at work today... we will see.... wish me luck!
Thanks Cutter, my friend. I am back at work. It's been hard. But, I am making it. We all sure find out how strong we are during these times, don't we? And, one thing I have learned during this nightmare in my life is that I was so much stronger than I ever thought I could be. So, I can do this too. And I will. I am so grateful for this supportive family on these boards.
Rocked, hope things went ok at work yesterday. I know it's hard going back to something that sets off the triggers, but hopefully you'll be busy and won't have a lot of time to think about it.
Since you're back at work, does that mean you have some spending money in your pocket? Seems like a good time for a pick-me-up pair of shoes or jeans...

Hey Pearl, thanks for the encouragement. Doing better today, feel more adjusted back into the swing of things, even though I don't think I slept a wink last night!
Actually this may be good for your RDW. Think of it this way. Life is asking you to come back into it again.
Cutter, my friend, I think this is very insightful. I think it is/will be good for me to get back to real life.
I talked with my H last night that I had fears about going back to work that it would make it easier to slide back into old patterns with us because my work takes a lot out of me. I asked him to let me know if he seems me withdrawing or "slipping" on my part in things and he said he would. It was reassuring.
We've done some very "flirty" texting back and forth today while I've been at work and he is home with kids.
