Survival Mode

I feel I should be updating my blog and sharing with the world how I'm dealing with the change in my life and what I'm discovering about myself along the way; however, I also feel that until I'm out the other side, I need to protect myself. I need to do as much as I can to figure it all out myself before I write about it.

I've switched to survival mode in the last week. I'm only doing what I need to do and what will make me feel the best I can. This means I'm surrounding myself with supportive and positive people. I'm laying on the couch and watching a movie when I need to. I'm going out dancing with girlfriends when the opportunity arises. I'm eating homemade cookies when a box is given to me (see supportive and positive people above).

I have final exams starting this week. I think feeling rested and calm is as important as studying. It's Sunday evening and I still haven't studied for my final on Thursday. Tomorrow is the beginning of a new week. A fresh start and one last busy week to get through.

  1. I have a friend working on a PHD at a University in Eastern Canada. (Womens' Studies) She says: "I've tried to figure it out. What's wrong here? I think it's simple, women are better. Their characters are finer."

  2. Makes me think of fine china or fine wine. And yes, we are fine, aren't we?
