Listening

So I knew that I was overwhelmed and stressed out lately, but today my body just yelled "stop!!!". Unfortunately it did so by throwing me one of my worst migraines in years. I had to stop working a few hours after lunch, and it hurt so badly I could barely even nap.

I don't even know what really pushed me over the edge. Work is always lousy this time of year; I usually don't have enough good work to do, so it's extremely hard to work a full week and stay motivated and productive. And then of course if I'm unproductive I feel really guilty, and it just puts me in an awful mood the rest of the day. Add in Christmas shopping and chores looming, cold weather, short days, and trying to make the house nice and Christmas-ey so I don't get homesick, and I guess I was asking for a breakdown.

So here's hoping tomorrow goes better. I have a ton of hours to make up, and I don't really have time off to spare. We're heading to Chambana on Friday for my company's holiday party, so I have to leave early to catch our flight, but it should be fun!
