UGH! Believe it or not, I get way too much work done here at the office. I'm beyond piled up and when I surface for air, I have to do it in some big chunks. I've been working extra hours on the side, and self help seems to keep me plugging along.
If you haven't guessed, one of my hats here is bean counting and this is my most stressful time of year. I accomplish a big task and reward myself for a good job by doing something mindless for awhile. I have about 3 months of hard work ahead of me.
But you're right, it's time for me to log off and get busy.
Good on you about your plans! Now just commit yourself to enjoying your time with your D and other family members, regardless what your H does.
I promise you that it's liberating to make choices that make you happy.
