I feel relaxed

These past few days have been really relaxing. I was feeling really sick and feverish Wednesday night after work and into Thursday afternoon, but recovered quickly. Judy said it was probably just stress...as noted a few posts ago, I've been undergoing a lot of stress lately.

1) New projects thrown my way each day at work. Now, if it was something I was familiar with, it wouldn't bother me much, but it's generally something I've never seen before and I am being asked to edit the stuff for details that someone familiar with the subject matter should be looking at.

Luckily, I keep getting compliments on my work, but when I make a simple comment like "this manuscript is incomplete" when there are 2 chapters listed but no content in them, and my supervisor says "I don't understand why you're saying this manuscript is incomplete?" um. then I have to take 5 minutes to explain it... uggh.

2) Winterguard A--I'm in charge. I'm in charge. I'm in charge... oh wait, someone else is in charge... can i get my stuff sometime before the end of the season, please? please?

3) Winterguard B-- I'm not in charge. I'm not in charge. I'm not in charge. Oh, I am? wait, i'm not? what? I don't understand...

4) Corps-- no major stress yet. I emphasize "Yet" Just people who don't know how to run anything successfully (at least, not to my knowledge--or anyone else's) talking smack.


I feel better now. No names mentioned, no harm, no foul.

News and stuff

I got a message that my car is almost done-- the paint was applied over the weekend and is now dry, and they are just putting the pieces back on (bumper, and I don't know what else), and it should be done in a few days. For some reason, the car dealer called Judy's phone number and not mine. Weird. So, today is Wednesday, I'm hoping it's ready by Friday! Judy will need to take it to San Antonio for judges' training. I'll use her car for Elgin's camp on Saturday. Which reminds me, I am going to "trade equipment" with someone from San Antonio. He's going to bring up 10 or 20 silver poles that I will trade for 10 or 20 white poles. Fun Fun. Last night was the first night back from winter break for my Elgin kids. Wow. We spent almost the whole night taping rifles and retaping flags. Seriously, it took 2 hours to do, then we only had about 30 minutes to work on basics, and not on show. Apparently Thursday night some of them need to work

Been a long time since...

I've updated. Well, not a REALLY long time, but longer than I usually prefer. Let's see-- I've been swamped at real job. Looks like things are only going to get backed up and frustrating for the next month or so. Yay. I'm not feeling well. Allergies? A cold? I don't know, but my throat is on fire and I'm all sniffly and feel a bit on the warm side. It's 70 degrees and I'm sweating like it's in the upper 90s. Not fun. Been working a lot on the website ( http://budurl.com/677z ) for my non-profit group, and trying to promote it. I am probably not doing enough, but I don't have much time to work on it as I would like. I need to get more people involved. Our auditions for performance group are this weekend, so I'm hoping that we will actually have people show up and participate, and they will get the word out! If not, I don't know what to do. Give it up? Try again in a few weeks? I'm kind of confused. I also worry too much and need

Talk

Talking really does help relationships. Don't hold ideas in, don't be afraid to discuss things with others, especially if something is bothering you. When you let problems build up, eventually an explosion occurs. (Contents Under Pressure are explosive!) Whether it's a loved one, an acquaintance, someone at work... whatever. Just talk. Chances are pretty good things will work out better because of it. If they don't, then consider the way you spoke about the situation. Choosing words carefully is important as well. ---------------- Now playing: Plasmatics - Put your love in me via FoxyTunes
