Stressed. Out.
Posted by Rebecca Tue, 06 Feb 2007 22:04:00 GMT
I work a full-time 40/hr. per week job.
I maintain a serious courtship, which requires a lot of energy, and fills my Tuesday evening and sometimes other evenings.
I am actively involved in my church, which usually is a commitment of almost my entire Sunday each week, my Wednesday evening each week, and sometimes a Friday or Saturday evening or afternoon.
I am working on a degree and am in a class right now. I have between 9-12 hours of work outside of class per week. And, I’m trying to read my bible and pray every day.
I have counseling sessions every Monday evening.
I have a lot of very good friends, many who support me in my various endeavors. I try very hard to maintain these relationships, because I love and value these people greatly.
And this week, I’m in the process of buying a new car.
Before you decide that I’m ignoring you and avoiding you on purpose, please consider the fact that I love you.
Then consider the fact that because of all the above, I rarely get enough sleep and thus I don’t think clearly and I don’t remember things well.
Then consider the fact that I’m extremely stressed and much to my chagrin, I can’t be at your beck and call when you’re bored.
Then consider that you are not the only friend I have, and I’m already feeling guilty about not spending time with people because I’m stretched thin.
I’d appreciate it. Because I’m doing the best I can.
I’m just Really. Stressed. Out.
