1. I've been a bit irritable for about a week. The "success" part is knowing that part of it is chemically based--I have been waiting a week for a refill of an estrogen patch from my pharmacy, and I'm completely OUT. :pissed: I can cope better, though, when I have an idea of what's going on, and I will tell myself, "No one's fault here; it's a chemical problem and it can be resolved."
2. After having FOUR NIGHTS in a row of church activities--three nights of Vacation Bible School and one night of praise team practice--I called #selfcare and didn't take any work from the people I work for on Thursday and Friday. On one of those evenings, I dropped my son at church and, instead of going to the adults' class for VBS, I went up the street to Burger King and journaled for an hour. I was in a foul mood and didn't want to take it out on anyone. I went back to the church building in a better frame of mind.
Alliematt, this emoticon always makes me smile :pissed:
