A Clear Mindset

Hello friends!

A few weeks ago, I decided to bring back my blog... Obviously, this isn't a weekly thing as I have already screwed up and missed a week. But whatever! Here's a new entry!

So here's what I've been up to... My husband went to Toronto for a doctor's appointment and I had a week to myself to reflect on what I really wanted. It was nice to just lay back and relax. But, of course I missed David like crazy! He came back, and it feels amazing. My step-dad and him helped me bring my L-shaped desk to my apartment and now we all have our computers out in a corner and it looks amazing! I really love my life with David... He's made me the happiest I've been in a very long time. :)

As for work, I went to get a doctor's note on Thursday to get 10 days off, because my anxiety was through the roof. I take my job very seriously compared to most of my co-workers, which means closing duties need to be done to perfection, in my eyes. Therefore, when I start to feel overwhelmed, I put pressure on myself and then I freak out! Where does this problem start, you ask? Easy... It starts with the scheduling. They don't know how to properly staff the floor, and that leaves us usually completely stranded to do the work on our own making it ten times more stressful than it should be. They say we don't have enough staff... But they keep putting people 4-7 instead of 4-9, for example. That would help the closers SO MUCH MORE!!! Anyways, I'm going back to work on Monday, and we'll see how it goes...

On the other hand, I have school, which is going great! I'm taking a spring class about children's literature and it's amazing! I got my first project back and I got a 73% on it! I am extremely happy and I'm sure I will do amazing in this class. This is exactly what I needed to get back into the groove and focus on my education with a clear mindset.

So far, this is all that's been happening so I'll see you guys next time!

Love,
Eric
