I have so much stress right now --

-I don't know for sure where I'll live come July
-I don't know how that's going to affect my marriage
-Carlos is coming back on Wednesday, which is good, but back to facing reality
-My mom is having a tough time of things
-I'm moving into a new job title and description
-Work is crazy right now
-It's the last leg of the school year for the class I teach at night... And one of the teachers' mom died so she just BAM! Quit! I ended up with two classes in one as of last week -- and now I have low beginners all the way up to high beginners
-We have our monthly meeting on Thursday, when I also have lots of other nonsensical stuff due
-I'm leaving for NYC on Friday, then Budapest on Saturday
-Ick = Taxes this year
-I feed Boli all raw food (raw meat etc.) and don't know how Carlos will handle that for the 12 days I'll be away from home
-I really don't know if I want to keep my job when I move. I'm sort of tired of the daily grind and not sure if the money's worth it.
-I'm trying to learn Hungarian and gain Hungarian citizenship too. Lots of paperwork. In Hungarian.

etc.

And I know - what I focus on expands. It's just I haven't been focusing on these things... and even with the raw food, it's taking its toll. I can't believe I'm awake and tired at 3 am blogging.

Am I awake because I've been avoiding reality? Is this all something I've created. I think I need to make less decisions and have less going on all at once -- but what to do now?? My head is spinning.

And it's AMAZING that I was able to complete as much as I could with work today. And no stomach issues.

But still. I'm starting to get zombied out. This is too much!!!

    oh the power of raw... I'm sure you realize it .... but I'm gunna point it out anyway... YOU ARE AMAZING.... RAW is helping you to handle all of this - even though it may not seem like it .. but most people would've already had a nervous breakdown! I almost had one just READING your blog!! LOL!! ;) SERIOUSLY though... look at everything going on -- and YOU ARE handling things ... it's just that sometimes, it might seem overwhelming...

    especially like now - when you list them all down -- or group them all together... or think of them all at once. But the reality is -- you can and will be able to handle all of this -- one at a time... and breathe. Although it might seem overwhelming - I can still see organization there, you have time lines in place, and goals to accomplish within certain time parameters... see? sometimes it helps to hear how it looks from the outside looking in! ;)

    Thanks StarFire -- You know, it's funny. I usually don't think of them all at once, don't focus on it at all. But I'm just tired, near exhausted the past couple days. I think it's all finally wearing down on me. I finally fell back asleep at about 530 this morning when the sun was coming up. Then I didn't wake until 930 or so (super late for me), and now I'm just a total zombie.

    I miss when this LIFEstyle was enough to keep me pushing through everything like it's all a piece of cake. I guess it just can only do so much. I too have to not add so many new things. Maybe now wasn't the best time to plan a trip for Hungary -- but gracious! It's the one thing in my life I feel sure about; it's just the REST of my life is the waste -- the job, the details from work.

    Maybe I should just forget it all and go forage in Hawaii. Hahaha
