Crazy Week

11.15 Smokey sun, gray sky outside mini mall

I basically stayed inside most of the day today because of the wildfires and the air outside was ridiculous. My brother even told me they canceled some games at the park because the air was so bad. I was going to blog a recommendation today, but I can’t. I’m tired! I’m resting. I didn’t do my P90x workout today (oooh)… I know I’m going to pay for that later…

This week was nuts. It started out great. I had a great day on my “Birthday Eve” on Sunday and then my birthday on Monday. Spent time with loved ones, ate junk food, and just forgot about everything that was going on in my life. I thought everything was fine. I thought it was a new start for me. I was positive, I was happy.

Then Tuesday came around – reality check! Problems still there. Confusion hasn’t gone away. Then add to that drama with a person who is unreasonable in each and every way… I stayed calm in front of him because I can’t stand drama and don’t want problems… but as soon as I was in the comfort of my own room… I broke down. I never had a break down like this before. My heart was pounding so hard it seriously felt like my heart was going up my throat. I put my hand on my throat and I felt my heart beating… I’ve never had that happen to me before. My mom felt my throat too and she told me to relax. Same with my boyfriend. He said to relax. Take a hot shower. I did, it didn’t work. I stayed in bed… didn’t go to class. Watched TV to try to get my mind off of everything (I hardly watch TV)… it was bad. I couldn’t relax. I ended up going to sleep… that did the trick.

So I vented to some people. My Mom, boyfriend, a couple friends… and in the process figured some stuff out. I think I figured out that I’m doing too much… I bit off more than I can chew… especially considering some things that are going on in my life that I have no control over. So I decided to change some things that I do have control over. I think I have an idea of what I have to do. (Sorry, I know, can I be any more vague? Lol!) But it would be a major change in my life. I’m honestly kind of excited about it though… it will be a refreshing change.

Some people might not like the decisions I’m making but screw them.

    Blame it on the wildfires Maria. Just like the wildfires, it’s out of our control and we just have to leave it up to ‘the Man’ and hope He give us strength to move on and follow through with the decisions we make.

    If you’re doing too much, then you probably have to slow down a bit. Stress can lead to so many problems. Hopefully you’ll get back to your P90x. I’m sure that helps with relieving stress and makes you think more clearly. At least that’s what exercise does for me.

    aww .. sorry to hear that you are having such a difficult time ..
    Of course you are vague, hehe, but i can understand … that u appreciate this person a lot if not wouldn’t hurt you so much, and that you care about him . He doesn’t want to but will understand your decisons if he appreciattes you too – I am sure he does. But for now, look for help, as you did, from the ones closer to you as your mom and boyfriend ;)

    Also, even if you don’t like drama, even if the person is not very healthy (just a guess) , try not to hide your real thoughts and feelings from him once you feel that you are able to face him again. As everything … easy to say, but difficult to do. Maybe a letter will help, I am sure there are things you would like to say to him but won’t dare. In a paper is easier and sometimes is a good way.

    And for what I know, which is not much :P … yes, you may be trying to do too many things … As I usually say … filter your life Maria, hehe .. that is, make that decisions and follow them, choose. Because even if you make a mistake, that’s what lets you have good things at the end .

    good luck!
