I've had a few things going on.

  • My father died. I'm the executor of the estate.
  • On my chronically understaffed and over-worked dev team, one member went to half-time, one went on maternity leave and another broke his leg.
  • I've been in the ER twice for chest pains (thankfully no cardiac issues or blood clots).
  • I had a tire blowout on my way to work.
  • My lower back and shoulder injuries have flared up making it difficult to sleep.
  • My cat was diagnosed with kidney disease.
  • And only yesterday I was informed the condo I'm living in is being sold and I have to move out by January 15. (I'm in the Bay Area, most expensive market in the USA right now.)

I'm not whining. But I also don't have anything really positive to say at the moment. Hopefully things get better soon.

(DEEP BREATH)

Here's a few GAs...

As bleak as things might seem at any one point in time, things will always get better.

That's what I've been telling myself. I hope it really does get better. I've been having a rough time the past months as well.

Sorry to hear that, friend. Seems like you're getting hit hard now, but it'll just make those 7 weeks where nothing really happens that much better. If it's any consolation, I'm not working at the moment but everything else seems to be going well enough for me. Healthy, and pretty happy. Is that cheery? I could probably find a funny image to post... but alas, I don't know how to attach them.

You're asking the wrong person for something cheery due to my current state but I do hope things greatly improve for you.

Geez, that's brutal.

How long did the chest pains last? Did they find a cause?

They show up when I'm stressed out. They were diagnosed as atypical/chest wall pain. So no definitive cause. I've been told I should look into yoga classes and acupuncture.

I... holy cats.

I mean... you can't make that kinda struggle up.

I thought my week was kind of cruddy with my ex-gf going incommunicado, and the place I work laying off a bunch of people including one of my best friends, and the student loan people coming down on me to give them money I don't have.

Puts things in perspective for me.

Breathing is good. I REALLY hope things get better for you soon. They will, eventually. Everything DOES pass, even if it may not seem like it when you're in the middle of it.

Best wishes.

Cheery hasn't been my bag for many many moons but I will pass on some of the wisest words ever spoken to me... "You were given this life because you are strong enough to live it."

So just remember, keep breathing. This too shall pass.
My grandfather recently passed. I don't know if I'd do so well if it was my father.
We're all here for you though.

Thanks for the GAs.

Wow... Feel for you! My father died two years ago... It's difficult being fatherless when your whole life has been filled with a Daddy by your side... Condolences...
