Spinning

My head is spinning, but I think [hope] it will stop soon. The past few weeks/months have felt like an absolute blur. At first I was pulling 7-days-per-week at work with rotating shifts a few 12-16 hour days and only a day-or-two off here-and-there. Then, suddenly the business slows-down to a crawl and my hours have been cut back. WTF?!?!?

All through it, days blended together and I actually had to look at the calendar to see what day of the week it was. There was also mad, scurrying to build a new winter wardrobe after losing so much weight that my old winter clothes would not fit, dealing with car troubles (His as well as mine), coaxing the old washing machine through its final death throes, switching cell phone providers and getting the new service established, tweaking my diet again to bring my cholesterol back within range (yes, again, dammit), trying to obtain assistance to get my prescription meds ordered (they ran out months ago and I couldn't afford to get them refilled), and dealing with a multitude of other little things that life throws in one's path.

So, yeah, my head has been spinning. Some of the things are finally falling into place. We don't have a new washing machine yet because of financial constraints, but we have worked-out an equitable routine for getting the laundry done until we can get a replacement. Some of my meds are on the way at a discount, finally, and it looks like the others might be available within another month or two. The major repairs to the cars seem to finally be over, with only small tweaks remaining. And I now have clothes to wear that fit, thanks to some recent sales and perusals of the "clearance" racks at a few shops.

With hours cut-back, I will now begin to have some regular time-off to chill, catch up on things, and hopefully be able to feel "normal" again. w00t!

...if feeling "normal" is even an option for a psychochick like me...
