Feel like a wreck.....

[noodles62]

:1zhelp: Today is not a good day....it is raining like crazy = depressing; 2 of my staff called in sick = stressed/overworked; mom-in-law is having 3x bypass surgery at this very moment = very stressed.

My anxiety/depression meds are not handling the load today and I feel like I will fall apart at any moment. I am thankful for this site and my fishy friends more and more each day. I never thought at my age I would become an internet junky with web-friends! I truly do appreciate you all and thanks for letting me get that all off of my chest....whew!

[msjinkzd]

I will have you and your mother-in-law in my thoughts, please let us know how she is doing. You can make it through the day noods! Keep your chin up!

[noodles62]

Thanks Rach. I know I will make it. I am trying to stay positive for hubby, but losing my own mother a few years back brings back a lot of emotions.....

Hey, Noods, hang in there. I know the feeling, and it'll be okay. If nothing else, go home and watch your fish. Take care; you're in our thoughts and prayers.

[Somervell]

Thinking good thoughts and saying a prayer for you, Noods! Hang in there.

[coach_z]

keep your chin up! everything will turn out fine.

Don't let the rain get you down. Rain is able to cleanse, rebuild, sustain. Remember those things you used to do as a kid? Go outside and jump in a puddle and smile!!!!

You brat! You know I am not even close to 68! :silly:

[noodles62]

Thanks everyone. And coach you are right, I should go out and play in the puddles....

Got an update from a friend that is with her. (mom is in Seattle area, we are in NC), surgery is progressing well. They have upped the bypass from 3 to 6 though. The old girl will probably be able to outrun and outlive me by the time they get dome with her! LOL

[LifelessForm]

A gecko will make you feel better.....hint hint......:)

[huffmagx]

I wish you well and will keep you and yours in my thoughts and prayers.

If it helps, Imagine beating me over the head with a mallet over and over again :D like a 3 stooges skit without getting hit yourself :D

[noodles62]

Thanks CCM. (I love the stooges!)

[The Zigman]

one day at a time noods, and you'll get through the rough times, and just remember it could always be worse... you could have been me!

oh and happy 68th BTW~!

[daphilster08]

Stay strong buddy! Somethings I use to cope with stress in college is lifting some waits and taking a walk through some very private woods. You can try these or fishy friends are always helpful too! Chin up! :)

[coach_z]

take a long (or another) lunch and go to a pet store and play with a bunny!

[noodles62]

Well they are finally done and closing her up. She will of course be heading to ICU. Thank you all for your support, thoughts and prayers. I really appreciate it. It was a heck of day and I am home now and hubby and I are having a beer! :cheers: I think we deserve it!

[msjinkzd]

glad to hear things sound to be going well! :)

[Luvbugz]

Sorry you were having such a rough day Noods! Glad to hear things are getting better. Wish I could just give yas a big ol hug right now to make stuff a little better.

[Adonism2]

Rest! Your in good hands! Have a peaceful day. Your in my prayers

[lookit]

Hey, Noods. Hope today is much better than yesterday and that you're restored after a beer and night's sleep. Also hope your mom-in-law is doing fine.

[noodles62]

Thanks Lookit. it was a very rough day/evening with lots of emotions and worry but I feel much better today and so does hubby. No calls from ICU during the night and this morning's update was good. She of course is in a lot of pain so on heavy drugs....thanks again to everyone for your support. I just really needed to let it out yesterday and did not wish to "share" my issues at work. (So you guys get dumped on!) LOL

[pinkertd]

Hey Noods....glad things are looking a bit brighter for you and that the surgery went well!!! I'll have to catch up and chat with you a bit about Firemen's ummm equipment at the State Firemen's Convention! LOL!:evil_lol:

[cam191919]

:hypnotized:

[Dangerdoll]

as always, Noods... you are in my thoughts and your mother in law is in my prayers....you know if I were near you, you'd have a big Doll hug {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{Noooooods}}}}}}}}}}}}}}

If you ever have another day like you just had here are some tips:

1. Remember that you are not alone, I've had some pretty bad days myself.

2. Watch your fish. Talk to your fish about your day, as crazy as it sounds it might help you feel better.

3. play with a fluffy animal.

4. Let others know how you feel like you let us know.

Hope these tips help :)

And again remember that you are not alone in having bad days.
