I think that many of us go through this periodically. If people get on my nerves I usually lay down and listen to some music (mostly classical) or audio books until I drift off to sleep.

Sometimes, if it's the work related, I tend to focus more and take care of things better. If it's by feelings of sadness or sympathy so to speak, I would just let it pass by and try to pay more attention to the bright sides of my life. I am an optimistic man by nature!

I feel overwhelmed sometimes. When that happens, I take a deep breath and choose the easiest problem and take care of that one first. Then I go through the rest one at a time. I always remember, tomorrow is another day and each day there after makes everything easier as issues get taken care of and put in the past. I lighten my heart by knowing "someone" trusts in me enough to know I can handle everything on my plate :)

love to you my friend.

Yes, I think it's because thing are beyond my control. It's easy for me to try to force things into working the way I think they should be. It just usually doesn't work.

It's just easier to understand that most everything in life is out of our control anyway, the best thing we can do is to pray, give it to God, and trust Him to do what's best for all of us. I know you are going through a lot with your dad Jenn, I will remember to keep you and your family in my prayers.

Just lately I've been falling behind in everything, mostly because of the rain. Also losing interest in just about everything. Patience is thin. Avoiding people when possible. It happens from time to time, trying to shake it off. I'll be partying my buns off later today, maybe that's the answer.
