oh I am with you. I obess about EVERYTHING. One of the main ones being "why can't I keep my house perfect?". I scrub all day. Hubby & kids come home & have it a mess again in 5 seconds. Another being the order I eat M&M's in. I have to eat each handful by color. Green first, then yellow, orange, blue, red & brown last. Hubby messed up my order once & I actually felt sick at my stomach and could not eat anymore. I know...I'm nuts... lol

Tink - You have some HUGE situations in your life going on. So you being preoccupied is so not abnormal. Rest your heart girl and you might say I am crazy when I say this but...."Give those thoughts you obsess about to the universe and let it take care of it".

I am sure you went into that interview realizing you are qualified for this job, deserve it, and want it. Your positive energy more than likely was picked up on by the gentleman who interviewed you.

And the neighbor young man who crashed into your home I feel was for a very good reason. You helped him tremendously and lead him into seeking help. No real harm was done physically to any of you and the results to this man are going to be life changing. You deserve such a big hug for how you handled it all. (I will never forget that thread you sent out talking about it)

And yes, I too have obsessed about certain situations. Mandy clearly can hold up a big flag saying "Yes she has, OMG it drove me insane constantly hearing about it!!"

So rest your heart and mediate on some things that bring you peace and relaxation.

I forgot to add. You leaving your employment at the bank was a great move!! You should be very excited about that closure in your life. You leaving has opened up some great doors for you!!

Oh, Tink, Sheryl is so right!!! You have this great opportunity now, and just think, you wouldn't be where you are now if you were still at the bank!!!

You are definitely on the upward track!!!!

Thanks all. I'm not glad that you all deal with this too, but it is nice not to feel like I'm ALL alone in this!

I have a tough time relaxing, because it seems I always have something I'm obsessing over. One thing is resolved just to have another start. That is a good day... if one HAS resolved before another starts! It seems the rest of you have this same thing going on though, so I guess I just need to accept it as normal and get over it. LOL

So how do we get around this... since we can't seem to avoid it?

well, I don't know how to "get over" it BUT...since hubby was off & had the computer all day yesterday, (I was obessing over what was going on here ). I dressed up, fixed my hair, put my makeup on & had my daughter take some pics (I'll post them soon. It was a great start & I actually felt good even though I just stayed in the house. Maybe a little "me" time is in order for you as well.

Looks like we all obsess about things huh? Right now and most of the time..I obsess about things that have to be done. Like this week...there are quite a few things I would like to accomplish while off, but at the same time worrying about if hubby will have to have surgery. I guess I obsess more than I thought..no wonder I'm such a b*tc* at times....too much pressure. Worst part of it is....I put the pressure on myself....how dumb is that???...I'm my own worst enemy...lol

My definition of obsess as an acronym

Oh Boy Seems Everybody's Stressing Some!
