Life Slowly Returns to Normal

Posted by S.M. Carrière on February 20, 2013 at 9:30 AM

Sometimes it's alright to hide.  Sometimes it's alright to turn your back.  Sometimes it's alright to walk away.


Sometimes.


Somtimes you just need a break from the world.  It can get pretty rough out there, and sometimes it can get too much.  It's alright to feel overwhelmed.


Sometimes.


As most of you know, last week was pretty rough on me.  I hid from the world as much as I could (had to work, bills to pay).  I didn't go to training.  I didn't do anything except rest.  I went home each night and stayed there until I absolutely had to leave.  The only people I dealth with were coworkers and my flatmate.  And the kitties.


And it was good for me.  I am feeling much more relaxed this week, less prone to weird flip-outs or emotional breakdowns.


So, to anyone who feels overwhelmed - it's alright.  Sometimes you just have to stop and breathe, bury yourself in a hole for a few days, hide away.  It's alright.  Sometimes.


Right, today I'm editing The Winter Wolf.  Hopefully I'll be a little quicker about it than the last time.  I'm barely even a quarter of the way through.  Sigh.


Don't forget to read and vote on this week's action in the Your Very Own Adventure Project.  Click HERE to do so.


Until tomorrow, then!

So glad things have settled down for you! I've taken an unexpected and lengthy blog break, but it's time to get going again. And that's tough, too.

I've noticed - I kept checking for posts! And it's true. It's tough getting back into a routine when you've been away from it for a while. Good luck!
